Profiles of the Forms and Functions of Aggression and Psychosocial Outcomes in Two Distinct Juvenile Offender PopulationsThompson, Kelli R 13 May 2016 (has links)
The current study was designed to explore profiles of reactive and proactive aggression in two distinct juvenile offender populations, in a group of juvenile offenders who have been adjudicated for illegal sexual behavior (n = 138) and in a group of juvenile offenders adjudicated for general delinquent behavior (n = 243). This is the first study of its kind to investigate profiles of aggression in a population of juveniles adjudicated for illegal sexual behavior. Preliminary profile analyses indicated that the two juvenile offender populations had similar profiles of aggression overall. Two step cluster analysis results were generally consistent with previous research (Crapanzano, Frick, & Terranova, 2010; Marsee et al., 2014) with 3 groups emerging for both overt and relational aggression: a combined group high on both reactive and proactive aggression, a group high in reactive aggression alone, and a low overall group. Post hoc comparisons of the clusters revealed that the high combined group consistently demonstrated higher reports of emotional and behavioral dysfunction supporting the hypothesis that the presence of proactive aggression serves more as an indicator of severity rather than as representing a qualitatively distinct group in and of itself. Policy implications regarding sex offender registration and notification laws extended to juveniles are discussed.

Rehabilitation for Gang-Affiliated, Male, African American Juvenile DelinquentsBerger, Batsheva 01 January 2019 (has links)
Many social workers are unaware of their responsibilities related to African American, male, juvenile delinquents who have gang affiliation. Punishment by detention is detrimental to these youth because detention perpetuates criminal careers and does not rehabilitate juvenile offenders. The purpose of this action research study was to determine how social workers understood their role in the rehabilitation of gang-affiliated, African American, male juvenile delinquents. Differential association theory was used as the conceptual framework to understand the detriment of youth being incarcerated without rehabilitation. One focus group of 5 social workers was formed using purposive sampling of social workers who worked with the juvenile delinquent population in different settings. Manual transcription, hand coding, and thematic analysis were used to analyze the data. Participants explained why social workers see the population of African American, male, juvenile delinquents with gang involvement as vulnerable, reasons for gang affiliation, barriers to treatment, and how to engage this population. Findings include strategies to promote positivity within urban environments, foster a sense community in these areas, and engage clients. Recommendations were made to advocate for policy change, incorporate the arts into intervention, and to create urban beautification programs. Findings and recommendations from this study might bring about social change by providing insight into how social workers understand their role in the rehabilitation of the population of African American, male, juvenile delinquents with gang involvement and what can be done to enhance the social work involvement.

A Comparison of Scores Made on the MMPI and CTMM by Two Groups of Juvenile Delinquents Apprehended for Auto Theft and a Group of Non-DelinquentsSypert, Walter Charles 05 1900 (has links)
The problem of this study was to determine if juvenile delinquents who commit auto theft without an accomplice differ significantly in certain characteristics from those who commit such thefts with one of more confederates. The characteristics investigated were: (1) scores made on individual scales of the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory and (2) intellectual ability as measured by the California Short-Form Test of Mental Maturity. Furthermore, the same characteristics were examined to determine if a significant difference existed between each of the groups of juvenile delinquents and a group of juveniles who did not have a record of delinquency and attended Sunday School classes regularly.

Previous issue date: 2005 / Resumo: Os programas tradicionais de intervenção nas unidades da Fundação Estadual do Bem Estar do Menor (FEBEM) se caracterizam por impor formas de conduta socialmente aceitas, adotando, para tanto, métodos restritivos e/ou punitivos. O presente estudo tem como objetivo geral caracterizar e analisar a situação das FEBEMs e implementar na unidade de Araraquara ¿ SP propostas pedagógicas mais adequadas para a reinserção social dos adolescentes reclusos, propondo um programa de intervenção baseado na orientação da Ginástica Geral. A orientação desse programa preconiza trabalhar os valores humanos de convivência social (Formação Humana), tendo como elemento mediador a cultura corporal dos internos. Espera-se que esta vivência transcenda as atividades realizadas, consolidando um alicerce social para a vida futura dos adolescentes. A metodologia proposta consiste na aplicação de um programa de intervenção, utilizando a Ginástica Geral com orientação pedagógica. O método de obtenção dos dados utilizado é o registro por escrito das impressões dos alunos, após cada aula ou apresentação. Os registros foram analisados, utilizando a técnica de análise de conteúdo proposta por Bardin, e os resultados subsidiam os apontamentos constantes neste trabalho, podendo contribuir para possíveis intervenções sócio-educativas para esse tipo de instituição / Abstract: The traditional intervention programs in the units of Fundação Estadual do Bem Estar do Menor (FEBEM) are caracterized by imposing ways of behavior socially accepted, adopting, however, restrictive and/or methods of punishment. This present study has the general objective of caracterizing and analising the situations in FEBEMs and propose in the Araraquara ¿ SP unit pedagogical suggestions more appropriate for the social reinsertion of adolescents, indicating an intervention program based on General Gymnastic orientation. The goal of this program consists in working the human values of social interaction (Human Formation), using as the main element the body culture of the internals. We wish this experience will go beyond the activities done, building a strong social base for the future life of the adolescents. The methodology consists in the aplication of an intervention program, using the General Gymnastic with pedagogical orientation. The method of obtaining the results is the written registration of the students impressions after every class or presentation. The results were analised, using the content analisys technique proposed by Bardin, and these results subsidize the contant remmarks in this work, contributing for possible social-educational interventions for this kind of institution / Mestrado / Mestre em Educação Física

La spécialisation de la justice des mineurs est-elle toujours effective? / Is specialization of youth justice still effective?Dubergé, Nicolas 29 November 2018 (has links)
L’enfant est un être en devenir, vulnérable et qui doit être protégé. Pour satisfaire cet objectif, le législateur a choisi de construire avec les ordonnances des 2 février 1945 et 23 décembre 1958, un appareil de justice spécialisé capable d'assurer la sécurité de l'enfant en danger et d'éduquer le mineur délinquant. Dans un droit en perpétuel mouvement, l'objectif de ce travail de recherche est de mesurer l'influence contemporaine du marqueur spécialisé irriguant la construction de notre système de justice des mineurs tutélaire, tant sur le plan de l'organisation juridictionnelle que de la procédure suivie par l'ensemble des juridictions. Les récentes transformations du droit des mineurs français et l'évolution de différents systèmes de justice européens le démontrent, l'avenir de ce repère est menacé car le modèle de justice tutélaire dans lequel il s'exprime est en crise. Il subit la concurrence d'un paradigme nouveau cherchant à responsabiliser l'enfant : la justice managériale. Dès lors, le marqueur spécialisé se trouve à la croisée de son histoire tandis que sa survie dépend des choix opérés par le législateur. Conscient de cette réalité, celui-ci a récemment entrepris une restauration qu'il faut encore parachever. / The child is a person at a development stage, vulnerable who must be protected. To complete this objective, the legislator chosen to build with 1945 February 2nd and 1958 December 23th ordinaries, a specialized justice system able to assure the safety of child at risk and educate juvenile delinquent In a law in perpetual movement, the objective of this research is to measure the contemporary influence of the specialized marker irrigating the construction of our juvenile justice system, both on plan of the jurisdictional organization and the procedure followed by all the jurisdictions The recent transformations of the French juvenile law and the evolution of various European systems of justice demonstrate it, the future of this mark is threatened because the wellfare model in which it expresses itself is in crisis. It undergoes the competition of one new paradigm which is trying to give more responsibilities to the child: the managerial justice. Aware of this reality, this one recently began a restoration which is again necessary to complete.

A quantitative study on the culture of violence amongst learners in South African schoolsVan der Merwe, Nicola 04 1900 (has links)
The focus of this thesis falls on school violence. The research addresses the
possibility that a culture of violence exists amongst some South African
school-going youth. The researcher identified the attitudes and behaviour of
learners towards violence as indicators of the culture of these learners. The
research specifically focused on the pro-violence attitudes and violent
behaviour of learners. The definition of ‘culture’ which was employed suggests
the link between a person’s attitude, behaviour and culture. Information was
gathered through literature and empirical research. The data was collected by
means of a questionnaire with closed-ended questions and a well-tested tool,
namely the Attitudes towards Violence Scale. The results of the empirical
research were analyzed with the SPSS Windows data editor computer
program. Conclusions and recommendations regarding school violence were
made. In addition, a programme to curb such violence was proposed. Some
suggestions for further research into this subject were also advanced. / Criminology and Security Science / M.A. (Criminology)

Previous issue date: 2008-05-28 / This paper outlines judicial criteria related to social and
educational judicial measures and analyses their similarities and
differences in relation to criminal penalties. As a consequence, both
constitutional rules and legal rules other than those within the
Constitution have been studied, ranging from the so-called Ordenações
Filipinas up to the Children and Adolescents Act; Brazilian jurisprudence
of the past 10 years as well as the way Criminal Law relates to this paper s
theme. The results attained demonstrate that (1) there is juvenile criminal
liability with specific characteristics and a particular set of principles; (2)
non-recognition of such juvenile criminal liability hinders the access and
permanence of teenagers in the system of legal guarantees and prevents
materialization and onset of public policies; (3) both the under ageoriented
judicial way of thinking among Brazilian judges and their
inclination towards punishment gives rise to legally arbitrary social and
educational measures, based on judges personal views and their
particular understanding of the Law, which, in turn, produces judicial
decisions without any relation to their main goal, that is to say, teenagers
pedagogical needs; (4) lack of infrastructure for the execution of social and
educational judicial measures in Brazilian cities is also a contributing
factor which leads to non-compliance to legal criteria whenever such
measures are adopted; (5) interpretation and effectiveness of the Children
and Adolescents Act currently face challenges that need to be overcome,
be it through judges changing their mentality, be it through the creation of
new structures that enable social and educational measures, in order to
establish teenagers as legal subjects in a peculiar state of development / A presente dissertação teve por objetivo estabelecer os
critérios judiciais de aplicação das medidas socioeducativas, analisando
as peculiaridades e diferenciações destes com relação às penas. Para
tanto, analisou-se a legislação constitucional e infraconstitucional
relacionada à matéria desde as Ordenações Filipinas até o Estatuto da
Criança e do Adolescente e a jurisprudência de nossos Tribunais nos
últimos 10 anos, bem como a intersecção do tema com relação ao Direito
Penal. Os resultados alcançados revelam que: 1) existe uma
responsabilidade penal juvenil com nuances próprias e principiologia
específica; 2) o não-reconhecimento desta responsabilidade penal
inviabiliza o acesso e permanência dos adolescentes no sistema de
garantias de direitos, a materialização das políticas públicas e sua
operacionalização; 3) a cultura menorista e ao mesmo tempo punitiva dos
juízes brasileiros gera a imposição de medidas socioeducativas sem
parâmetros legais, ao sabor da convicção pessoal de cada magistrado, sua
peculiar leitura da lei e compreensão do tema, acarretando a imposição de
medidas sem qualquer correlação com sua finalidade precípua, ou seja, a
necessidade pedagógica do adolescente; 4) a ausência de infra-estrutura
para execução das medidas socioeducativas nas Comarcas brasileiras
também é um dos principais fatores que levam a não-observação dos
critérios legais para a aplicação de tais medidas; 4) há uma crise de
interpretação e implementação do ECA que urge ser resolvida, seja como
uma mudança da mentalidade dos magistrados, seja com a criação de
uma nova estrutura que possibilite o cumprimento das medidas
socioeducativas, e para que se erija o adolescente como real sujeito de
direito em peculiar condição de desenvolvimento
