Perceptions of Correctional Officer Procedural Justice, Low Self-Control, and Institutional Misconduct Among People in Prison
Using data from the Prison Project, a nationwide study of individuals entering pre-trial detention ( N = 1,609) in the Netherlands, the study examines the associations among self-control (e.g., acting on impulse, lack of forethought, inability to concentrate), perceptions of procedural justice (i.e., people in prison’s perceptions of their treatment by prison staff), and prison misconduct (e.g., being aggressive toward prison staff and/or other p…
Who Influences Whom? Examining Self-Control and Delinquent Peer Dynamics among Justice-Involved Youth
The connection between one’s level of self-control and association with delinquent peers has been the subject of ongoing scholarly debate, yet it is unclear if these two constructs operate independently or mutually influence each other over time. Using data from the Pathways to Desistance study, this study longitudinally examined the potential reciprocal relationship between self-control and delinquent peer association. Data from 1,354 adolescent…
Predictive and incremental validity of adolescent callous‐unemotional traits
BACKGROUND: Callous-unemotional (CU) traits were recently added as a diagnostic specifier for disruptive behavior disorders, largely due to their prognostic utility. However, past longitudinal research has yielded mixed results when investigating associations between CU traits and long-term outcomes, particularly when controlling for the individual's level of antisocial behavior. METHODS: The current study investigated the longitudinal predictive…

An Examination of Differential Item Functioning in a Measure of Self-Reported Offending Across Race and Ethnicity Among a Sample of Justice-Involved Youth
Self-report measures of offending are widely used in criminological research and have been employed to examine potential differences across groups in offending. An assumption of these comparisons is that the items that comprise these measures function similarly across relevant groups. We evaluated differential item functioning (DIF) of a measure of self-reported offending across White, Black, and Hispanic youth involved in the justice system (n =…
The Influence of Parenting on Delinquency
This study uses data from the Pathways to Desistence study to test if parenting (monitoring and warmth) indirectly influences delinquency through its impact on delinquent peer association (antisocial influence and behavior) among a sample of serious juvenile offenders ( n = 1,354) and if this indirect effect is moderated by self-control. The results suggest that parental monitoring (but not warmth) predicted delinquency through both peer antisoci…
Examining Differences in the Effect of Vicarious and Personal Procedural Justice on Legal Orientations and Offending Across Race/Ethnicity Among a Sample of Serious Juvenile Offenders
In the current study it is examined if the impact of vicarious and personal perceptions of procedural justice on legal cynicism, legitimacy, and offending across time is invariant across race/ethnicity. Using longitudinal data from a sample of serious juvenile offenders from the Pathways to Desistance, the within- and between-individual associations of procedural justice, legal orientations, and offending were tested. Race/ethnic-specific models …
Parents, peers, and low self-control
Longitudinal associations of parental monitoring and delinquent peer affiliation
INTRODUCTION: Poor parental monitoring has been theorized as a key risk factor for an adolescent's association with deviant peers. However, measurements of parental monitoring often only measure parental knowledge rather than parental monitoring actions, leaving the true longitudinal associations between parental monitoring and peer delinquency unclear. METHODS: The current sample consisted of 1095 male justice-involved adolescents (13-17 years o…
Juvenile Court Outcomes for Retail Offenders
Using all delinquency referrals in a Northeast state, the current study examined how youth charged with retail offenses differed from other offense types across multiple juvenile court outcomes (i.e., petition, adjudication, and disposition). The individual and joint effects of a juvenile’s sex and race/ethnicity were also investigated to determine whether these extralegal factors conditioned the relationship between offense type and juvenile sys…
Psychopathic traits predict patterns of gun-carrying among a sample of justice-involved youth
Race Differences in the Effects of Early School Behavior Problems and Substance Use Type on Lifetime Arrest
Early behavior problems may correlate with adult offending. However, the relationship between early problem behavior and lifetime arrests among known offenders has received little empirical examination. In addition, few studies have explored how the associations between early problem behavior and lifetime arrests may differ among Whites and Nonwhites. It is crucial to understand how early problem behavior is associated with lifetime offending giv…
Do callous–unemotional traits moderate the effects of the juvenile justice system on later offending behavior
BACKGROUND: Research suggests that callous-unemotional (CU) traits, a recent addition to psychiatric classification of serious conduct problems, may moderate the influence of a number of contextual factors (e.g., parenting, deviant peer influence) on an adolescent's adjustment. The current study sought to replicate past research showing that formal processing through the juvenile justice system increases recidivism and tested the novel hypothesis…
The associations of maternal warmth and hostility with prosocial and antisocial outcomes in justice-involved adolescents
Parental warmth and hostility are two key dimensions of parenting for child development, but the differential effects of these parenting dimensions on child prosocial and antisocial development has not been adequately investigated. The current study hypothesized that parental warmth would be uniquely related to child callous-unemotional traits and prosocial behavior, whereas parental hostility would be uniquely related to child delinquency and ag…
The utility of self-reported psychopathic traits in predicting recidivism among a sample of incarcerated female youths
Exploring Post-Incarceration Residential Trajectories
Extant research on housing instability focuses on external housing barriers but limited research exists on individual-level indicators of housing stability for individuals returning to society from incarceration. This study addresses this gap with data collected from 70 individuals recently released from incarceration who returned to Bexar County (San Antonio, Texas) that were not placed in specific housing programmes, leaving them to seek housin…
Revisiting the generality of rational choice theory
Estimating and predicting the course of callous-unemotional traits in first-time adolescent offenders
The stability of callous-unemotional (CU) traits and both individual and contextual factors that influence this stability have been studied in community adolescent samples but not to great extent in adolescents who have been arrested. We estimated the developmental changes in CU traits measured over the course of 36 months (6-month intervals) following the first arrest of male adolescents ( N = 1,216). Using latent growth curve modeling and the m…

Triarchic Model of Psychopathy
The present study examined the psychometric properties of a brief measure of the Triarchic model of psychopathy based on the Youth Psychopathic Traits Inventory (YPI-Tri-S) among a forensic sample of detained female youth offenders (M = 16.41 years; SD = 1.19 years) from Portugal. Results supported the expected three-factor structure and cross-gender measurement invariance. The YPI-Tri-S showed good psychometric properties in terms of factor stru…
Callous–unemotional traits predict self-reported offending in adolescent boys
Research has only recently begun to examine how callous-unemotional (CU) traits interact with contextual factors to predict delinquent behavior. The current study attempts to explain the well-established link between CU traits and offending by testing the potential mediating and moderating roles of 2 critical contextual factors: peer delinquency and the quality of the parent-adolescent relationship among a sample of 1,216 male juvenile offenders.…

Ethically Using Administrative Data in Research
Ethical standards and issues associated with the access and use of state Medicaid administrative data for research purposes from the data owners’ perspective (i.e., state Medicaid authorities) were examined. Key informants at Medicaid authorities were surveyed regarding their states’ policies and procedures related to the access and use of Medicaid data for research purposes. Results indicate that although a majority of states permit the use of M…
Annual Research Review
Recent research has suggested that the presence of significant levels of callous‐unemotional ( CU ) traits designates a clinically important and etiologically distinct subgroup of children and adolescents with serious conduct problems. Based on this research, CU traits have been included in the most recent revision of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders – 5th Edition ( DSM ‐5; American Psychiatric Association, 2013) – as a s…
Can callous-unemotional traits enhance the understanding, diagnosis, and treatment of serious conduct problems in children and adolescents? A comprehensive review
This article provides a comprehensive review of the research on the use of callous and unemotional (CU) traits for designating an important subgroup of children and adolescents with severe conduct problems. It focuses on the etiological significance of recognizing this subgroup of youths with severe conduct problems, its implications for diagnostic classification, and the treatment implications of this research. The review highlights limitations …
The road forward for research on callous-unemotional traits
Lahey (2014) provides a thoughtful and scholarly discussion of our review of the research on the potential utility of callous-unemotional (CU) traits for designating a distinct subgroup of children and adolescents with severe conduct problems. In this reply, we attempt to clarify several issues raised in Lahey's commentary. Specifically, by focusing largely on only 1 part of the research review (i.e., implications for evaluating the new specifier…
Evaluating Callous‐Unemotional Traits as a Personality Construct
We evaluate the importance of callous‐unemotional ( CU ) traits as a personality construct in isolation from other facets of psychopathy. Specifically, we review research suggesting that these traits are useful for designating a subgroup of youth with serious conduct problems who differ from other antisocial youth on important biological, emotional, cognitive, and social characteristics. In addition, the temperamental features related to CU trait…
