Socially responsible Criminology
This address argues that some members of the criminology community must take upon themselves the responsibility of communicating the knowledge developed by the field to practitioners and decision makers. It is reasoned that only with such targeted dissemination will the full potential benefits from our work be realized
Une comparaison de la délinquance des jeunes au Canada et aux États-Unis
Cet article étudie les tendances de la délinquance juvénile au Canada et aux États-Unis pour la période entre 1991 et 1996. En ce qui concerne les infractions sérieuses commises avec violence, les infractions contre la propriété et les infractions liées à l'usage de la drogue, le Canada avait, en général, un plus faible taux d'arrestations que les États-Unis. Cependant, quand on observe les affaires qui ont reçu un traitement judiciaire formel, o…
The Juvenile Court and Delinquency Cases
Growing public concern about the rise in violent juvenile crime is borne out by increases in the juvenile court's caseload, which rose 23% between 1989 and 1993. The number of cases involving person offenses increased by 52%. Despite the rise in person offenses, the majority of delinquency cases in juvenile court involve property offenses, and less than 10% of the caseload consists of violent offenses. Almost all juveniles commit at least one del…
Rate of Offending in Juvenile Careers
This study examines changes in the rate of offending in a sample of 8,834 males whose official juvenile law‐violating careers included 26,650 offense episodes between ages 8 and 17 The rate of offending of active offenders (i.e., lambda) varied substantially as a function of age, increasing monotonically with age. Lambda, however, was not related to the age at first offense. In fact, the average lambda was amazingly constant at each individual ag…
Specialization in Juvenile Court Careers
The study of specialization in offending careers is relevant to the key theoretical issue of whether different types of offending reject only one underlying theoretical construct (such as delinquent tendency) or several different constructs. This research improves on previous studies of specialization in offending careers in three ways: (1) It is based on the complete juvenile court careers of a very large sample of offenders (nearly 70,000). (2)…
Peer preferences in a desegregated school
Group Support and Reaction to Stable and Shifting Agreement/Disagreement
This study investigated how subjects' level of consensual validation motivation affected their reactions to targets who exhibited several patterns of agreement or disagreement with subjects' opinion. Individual male subjects in simulatedfour-person groups received consistent support or nonsupport (consensual validation or invalidation) from two group members regarding appropriate treatment for a juvenile delinquent. Another member (the target) co…
