Youth Justice in New Zealand
The Children, Young Persons, and Their Families Act 1989 put in place new objects, principles, and procedures for youth justice in New Zealand. Both the philosophy underpinning this system and the use of family group conferences exemplify a restorative justice approach that has now been adopted in many other countries. This article describes these changes and presents some of the results of recently published research that examines the extent to …
Perspectives néo-zélandaises sur la justice des mineurs au Canada
Le gouvernement canadien a présenté des propositions de changement de la justice des mineurs qui mettent l'accent sur la prévention de la délinquance des jeunes ; sur la déjudiciarisation et la réduction de la mise sous garde ; sur le fait de tenir les jeunes responsables de leurs infractions de manière significative; sur l'établissement de programmes qui produisent des effets à l'endroit des contrevenants, particulièrement les délinquants multir…

Few jurisdictions, however, have gone as far as the recently introduced system of’ youth justice in New Zealand. There, a meeting is arranged between the victim (or their representatives), the young person who committed the offence, his or her family and a police officer to decide the appropriate response to the offending. The arguments behind this…
Behaviour of Lovers
A list of the behavioural criteria of closeness in relationships is derived from a review of the literature. The criteria form the basis for the development of a self-report measure of closeness in relationships. Four studies using the Close Relationships Questionnaire validated the measure and support the contention that similar behaviour is involved in close same-sex friendships, closeness between mothers and their young adult children, and amo…
