Among institutionalized delinquent males, low scores on a questionnaire index of desire for release were related significantly to less stable family relationships (parent absent from home, parental abuse/rejection), more pessimistic evaluations of home by subjects, and a greater likelihood of previous institutionalization and of truancy/runaway offenses. The results suggest the importance of extrainstitutional variables for understanding the delinquent's degree of motivation for release, and provide some direction for further studies of „institutional dependency”︁ among delinquents.
