Dynamic Needs Among Youth and Differences Across Justice-Related Factors: A Sex-Based Latent Class Approach
Predictive Bias in Juvenile Risk Assessment: Considering Race/Ethnicity and Sex
This study examines the joint effects of race/ethnicity and sex on the classification quality of the Positive Achievement Change Tool (PACT). We assess predictive parity, calibration, and error rate balance using a statewide sample of youth who completed probation from 2007 to 2014. Similar rates of predictive parity were observed across groups. Calibration was observed consistently across groups, but only when low risk youth were used as the ref…
Ambiguous calls: Public preferences for law enforcement responses to people in crisis
Risk Level and Variation in Social Support Access Among Justice-Involved Youth
Social support is important for the average incarcerated person, although variation exists. The amount of support received and whether improvements in support are made over confinement can vary across numerous factors including sentence length and quality of family relationships. Preliminary evidence suggests that risk level might also be an important factor to consider, though no study has examined this possibility. Accordingly, the current stud…
Implementation and evaluation of a juvenile mental health training for law enforcement in a medium‐sized jurisdiction
The need for specialized training programs that are focused on youth mental health needs, awareness of community‐based services, and de‐escalation skills is growing across law enforcement agencies due to calls for service that involve youth in mental health crisis. The current study evaluates a juvenile mental health training for law enforcement that was developed based on agency needs. The training was completed by 159 officers and a pre‐/post‐t…
The Role of Family Structure and Family Processes on Adolescent Problem Behavior
We examined the impact of family structure and family processes on engagement in multiple and co-occurring problem behaviors during adolescence (delinquency, substance use, risky sexual behavior, and truancy) while accounting for key risk factors (attachment to school, antisocial peers, self-control, and residential stability) for antisocial behavior. Using data from Waves 1 and 2 of the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health (…
Examining the Type of Legal Representation and Its Influence on Disaggregated Dispositions in Juvenile Court
While prior studies of juvenile court outcomes have examined the impact of legal representation on out-of-home placement versus community sanctions, previous research has not fully explored the variation within sanctions that youth receive. The current study examines the influence of type of legal representation (public defender or private attorney) when predicting juvenile adjudications and dispositions. Using a sample of delinquent referrals fr…
Comparing the Impact of Bullying Victimization on Drug Use and Weapon Carrying among Male and Female Middle and High School Students: A Partial Test of General Strain Theory
Prior research testing general strain theory (GST) suggests potential differences in how males and females respond to strain. Using a sample of 3,139 middle and high school students (1,515 males and 1,624 females), this study evaluates male and female delinquent coping behaviors to traditional bullying and cyberbullying victimization. Three delinquent coping behaviors are investigated: soft drug use, hard drug use, and weapon carrying. This study…
