Outcomes of a community sector model of reintegration for people with complex needs
A Clinical-Community Comparison of Parent-Child Emotion Conversations About the Past and the Anticipated Future
This study aimed to assess differences in emotion and elaboration quality between clinical and community child cohorts in both past reminiscing and future worry conversations. We analyzed 54 Australian parents (46 mothers, 8 fathers) and their 8- to 12-year-old children ( M = 9.63, SD = 1.29; 28 boys, 26 girls) in reminiscing interactions. Dyads were recruited from local schools (community cohort, n = 26) or a children’s psychology clinic waitlis…

Antenatal mind-mindedness and its relationship to maternal-fetal attachment in pregnant women
In this study, researchers aimed to investigate whether a relationship exists between maternal-fetal attachment (MFA) and antenatal mind-mindedness in a sample of Australian pregnant women (n = 43). Participants completed the Maternal Fetal Attachment Scale (MFAS) in their second and third trimester, and a modified 'describe your baby' interview with the inclusion of general prompts as a measure of antenatal mind-mindedness in their third trimest…

Youth Justice and Penality in Comparative Context
This book represents the first major analysis of Anglo-Australian youth justice and penality to be published and it makes significant theoretical and empirical contributions to the wider field of comparative criminology. By exploring trends in law, policy and practice over a forty-year period, the book critically surveys the ‘moving images’ of youth justice regimes and penal cultures, the principal drivers of reform, the core outcomes of such pro…
Principles in diversion of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander young people from the criminal jurisdiction
The over-imprisonment of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children within Australian youth detention facilities is one of the nation’s most significant social and human rights issues. This article discusses findings from recent research on youth penality combined with observations on the current offerings in youth diversion in Australia, to suggest nine principles of good practice in diversion of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander young p…
How does culture shape our moral identity? Moral foundations in Saudi Arabia and Britain
North American measures of moral identity ( MI ) assume that caring and fairness are the most prototypical features of morality. Moral foundations theory describes such individualising foundations of morality as dominant in individualist cultures and binding foundations of morality as more particular to collectivist cultures. We weighed the criticism that moral identity scales are guilty of “liberal ethnocentrism” in two studies drawing on partic…
Human rights and youth justice reform in England and Wales
This article examines critically the persistently antagonistic relationship – across the past quarter-century – between the provisions of international human rights instruments and the nature and direction of youth justice reform in England and Wales. It introduces the core provisions of the human rights framework that pertain to youth justice and it sketches the nature and direction of policy reform over the 25-year period under scrutiny (1991–2…
Cruel and unusual punishment’
Although several criminologists and social scientists have drawn attention to the high rates of mental and cognitive disability amongst populations of young people embroiled in youth justice systems, less attention has been paid to the ways in which young people with disability are disproportionately exposed to processes of criminalisation and how the same processes serve to further disable them. In this paper, we aim to make a contribution towar…
It's all about the Benjamins’
This article provides a brief analysis of the place, role and purpose of monetary penalties and their theoretical underpinnings. Against this critique of financial penalties and the revenue ('the Benjamins') 1 that flows from penalty infringement notices, the article examines the six-fold growth in penalty infringement notices 2 issued to children and young people in NSW between 1998 and 2013. It outlines the disproportionate impact of monetary p…
Juvenile Justice, Young People and Human Rights in Australia
This article identifies the key human rights issues that emerge for young people in juvenile justice in Australia. While there is a clear framework for respecting the human rights of children within juvenile justice, the article poses the question: To what extent does Australia actually operationalise and comply with these rights in law, policy and practice? In answering, it discusses various national and international reports, legislation, acade…
