Adolescent offenders with and without incarcerated parents: comparison of traumatic experiences and risk factors

Howell, Tiffany Atkins 09 August 2008 (has links)
This study compared the experiences of adolescent offenders with and without incarcerated parents. A sample of adolescent offenders (n = 26) completed questionnaires assessing past experiences, including trauma and violence, and current behaviors. Over half of the participants reported having a parent who had served time in jail or prison. Adolescent offenders with incarcerated parents were more likely to feel safe at home and school, and more likely to witness their parents in a physical fight than adolescent offenders without incarcerated parents. In contrast, there were no significant differences between adolescent offenders with and without incarcerated parents in self-reported trauma. Post hoc analyses revealed that female adolescent offenders felt less safe, reported more physical punishment, and had more DHS involvement than male adolescent offenders.

A primeira experiência do uso de drogas e o ato infracional entre os adolescentes em conflito com a lei / First-time drug use and offense among adolescents in conflict with the law

Mayra Costa Martins 20 April 2007 (has links)
A delinqüência juvenil e o uso de drogas são problemas sociais e de saúde pública, que vem recebendo uma atenção especial por parte dos profissionais que atuam nesta área e dos órgãos públicos para um melhor entendimento dessa realidade e uma ação efetiva em relação às possibilidades de prevenção. Este estudo tem como objetivo identificar a primeira experiência do uso de drogas e do ato infracional entre os adolescentes em conflito com a lei e analisar sua possível relação. A amostra foi composta por 150 adolescentes do sexo masculino, com idade entre 12 a 21 anos e que estavam em cumprimento de medida sócio-educativa de internação, nas unidades da FEBEM (Fundação Estadual do Bem estar do Menor) de Sertãozinho e Ribeirão Preto-SP. Este é um estudo quantitativo descritivo. Para o instrumento de coleta de dados foi formatado questionário individual, estruturado com perguntas fechadas, divididos em três partes: 1ª) contém as informações sócio-demgráficas, 2ª) o uso de drogas e a 3ª) o ato infracional. Foram realizadas análises descritivas e univariável com intervalo de confiança de 95%. Dentre as caracterisitcas sócio-demográficas, os adolescentes tinham idade de 16 anos, cor pardo ou negro, procedentes da região de Ribeirão Preto-SP, com nível baixo de escolaridade e 99(66%) pertencem à família monoparental e se sustenta com prática infracional. Os índices do primeiro uso do álcool, cigarro e maconha são elevados e ocorrem concomitantemente com idade média de 12 anos. Com relação aos delitos, os mais praticados são roubo 61(40,7%), seguido do tráfico de drogas 44(29,4%) e o furto 14(9,3%) e ocorrem precocemente como o uso da droga com idade média de 13 anos. A associação destas variáveis demonstrou que existe uma correlação significativa entre o uso do álcool e da maconha e os atos infracionais, exceto o homicídio, o estudo também apontou uma relação entre o uso do crack e o tráfico de droga. Este dado confirma que quando o uso destas drogas ocorre precocemente, existe uma chance maior deste adolescente a se envolver mais cedo em comportamentos de risco como, por exemplo, a prática infracional. Não foi encontrada nenhuma relação estatisticamente significativa entre o uso do cigarro e da cocaína e o ato infracional. Os resultados do presente estudo nos aponta indicadores para o desenvolvimento de programas preventivos do uso de drogas entre adolescentes, que podem contribuir para uma redução a escalada para outros comportamentos de riscos. / Juvenile delinquency and drug use are respectively a social problem and a public health burden that have been particularly addressed by health professionals and public authorities for a better understanding of such issue and effective prevention actions. The goal of this study was to identify the first drug use experience and law infraction among adolescents in conflict with the law and attempt to find a possible correlation. The sample consisted of 150 male adolescents aged 12 to 21 institutionalized in the FEBEM (State Foundation for the Well-being of Minors) detention centers under socio educational measures in Sertãozinho and Ribeirão Preto/SP. This is a quantitative and descriptive study. An individual questionnaire, which was divided into three parts, containing closed questions was developed and used as a data collection tool. Those questions addressed the following: 1) Socio demographic information; 2) drug use, and 3) offenses. Descriptive and one- variable analyses were performed, with a confidence interval of 95%. The socio demographic characteristics showed that the average age of adolescent offenders was 16; most of them were Afro descendants or mullatoes and were originally from the region of Ribeirão Preto/SP, had low educational, and 99 (66%) came from mono parental families who supported themselves by means of offenses. The rates of first- time alcohol, cigarette, and marijuana use were high and occurred around the age of 12. As for offenses, the most common were robbery (44.7%) followed by drug traffic (29.4%) and theft (9.3%) and occurred around the age of 13. The association of these variables indicated the there was a significant link between the use of alcohol and marijuana and offenses, except for homicide. The study also showed an association between the use of crack and drug traffic. Such data suggest that the earlier children use these drugs, the sooner they are likely to get involved with risky behaviors, e.g., offenses. No significant statistical association was found between cigarette and cocaine use and offenses. The results of the present study indicate that effective programs for drug use prevention among teenagers should be developed in order to reduce escalation to other risky behaviors.

No. of bitstreams: 1 Texto parcial Viviane Ferro - 2009.pdf: 448887 bytes, checksum: 52acdebcbbc4628906b1f9dc463bd9de (MD5) Previous issue date: 2009-08-27 / The aim of this study is to understand the romantic relationship choice of couples consisting of male adolescents who have committed criminal offenses and their female partners, as well as the continuation of the relationship after the determination of socio-educational measures of deprivation of freedom, through the identification of the relationship patterns found in the families of each of the members of the couple. Two couples in a government instituion of Distrito Federal that carries out such measures were studied from a qualitative perspective. Individual interviews were performed with each member of the couple and a genogram was constructed. The results showed that the family plays a fundamental part in the transmission and repetition of male and female roles in the romantic relationship and in the establishment of communication styles and rules. With regard to gender issues, the relationships of the couples are based on a patriarchal model in which the man exercises his power and domination while the woman focuses on affective, care, and obedience relationships, even when the adolescent is institutionalized / Este estudo tem o objetivo de compreender a escolha amorosa de casais constituídos por adolescentes autores de atos infracionais e suas companheiras, bem como a manutenção do relacionamento após a determinação da medida socioeducativa de privação de liberdade, a partir da identificação dos padrões relacionais presentes na família de cada um dos membros do casal. Numa perspectiva qualitativa, foram estudados dois casais em uma unidade governamental do Distrito Federal que executa a medida acima citada. Foram realizadas entrevistas individuais com cada participante da dupla amorosa e, ainda, a elaboração do genograma. Os resultados mostram que a família tem um papel fundamental na transmissão e repetição dos papéis de homem e de mulher desempenhados na relação amorosa e do estabelecimento de regras e estilos de comunicação. No que diz respeito às questões de gênero, nota-se que o relacionamento dos casais está ancorado no modelo patriarcal em que o homem exerce seu poder e seu domínio e a mulher prioriza as relações de afeto, cuidado e obediência, mesmo quando o adolescente está institucionalizado

Trauma Responses, Abuse History, and Exposure to Violence as Risk Factors in Adolescent Sex and Non-Sex Offenders

Briley, Joshua Paul 12 1900 (has links)
Several risk factors have been identified for adolescent sex offenders and non-sex offenders. Such risk factors include physical and/or sexual abuse, and exposure to community and/or domestic violence. Additionally, the presence of disinhibitive factors, such as substance use and exposure to violent or pornographic media are also commonly reported in the backgrounds of both sex and non-sex offenders. Similarly, adolescent offenders have reported traumatic reactions to environmental factors such as abuse and violence. Similarities in exposure to the risk and disinhibitive factors described above between adolescent sex and non-sex offenders do not provide an explanation for why some adolescents commit sex offenses, whereas other adolescent offenders do not. This study investigated the discriminative ability of traumatic reactions as a risk factor between male adolescent sex and non-sex offenders. The inclusion of traumatic reactions increased the accuracy of risk factors distinguishing between sex and non-sex offenders. Thus, not only the presence of risk factors, but also the adolescent's reaction to the risk factors, are important predictors of whether he will commit a sexual offense.

[en] SOCIO-EDUCATIONAL MEASURES IN OPEN SETTINGS: SPEECHES BETWEEN THE GUARANTEE OF RIGHTS AND THE PUNISHMENT / [pt] MEDIDAS SOCIOEDUCATIVAS EM MEIO ABERTO PARA ADOLESCENTES: DISCURSOS ENTRE A GARANTIA DE DIREITOS E A PUNIÇÃO

PALOMA FERNANDA MARTINS PEREIRA 13 August 2018 (has links)
[pt] As Medidas Socioeducativas em Meio Aberto, desde sua implementação foram alvo de controvérsias e divergências, com posicionamentos radicalmente opostos, onde se defende a garantia de direitos ou a punição aos adolescentes autores de ato infracional. A dissertação tem como proposta analisar as argumentações-base que caracterizam estes posicionamentos. Para os que percebem as Medidas Socioeducativas como garantia de direitos, as argumentações utilizadas com frequência levam em consideração o contexto de vida do adolescente em conflito com a lei e o momento do seu ciclo de vida - a adolescência. Já os que acreditam que as Medidas Socioeducativas favorecem a impunidade aos adolescentes, em geral, se posicionam a favor da redução da maioridade penal e do encarceramento dos adolescentes. Análise foi realizada a partir das diretrizes das normativas em curso, das propostas de Emendas Constitucionais e do contexto de execução da medida socioeducativa em meio aberto, tendo como base uma pesquisa sobre medidas socioeducativas em meio aberto realizada no ano de 2017 junto aos CREAS do município do Rio de Janeiro. / [en] The socio-educational measures in open settings since their implementation have been the subject of controversies and divergences, with radically opposing positions, where one defends the guarantee of rights or the punishment to the adolescents who committed an offence. This dissertation aims to analyze the basic arguments that characterize these positions. For those who perceive socio-educational measures as guarantee of rights, the arguments used frequently take into account the contexts in which the adolescents in conflict with the law live and the moment of their life cycle: adolescence. Those who believe that socio-educational measures favor impunity for adolescents, in general, are in favor of reducing the penal age and their imprisonment. The analysis was carried out based on the guidelines of current regulations, proposals for Constitutional Amendments and the context of execution of the socio-educational measures in open settings. This will be done using as reference a study which focused on socio-educational measures held in the year 2017 with the Specialized Reference Centers in Social Assistance of the municipality of Rio de Janeiro.
