Brown, Waln K.; And Others

Journal of Offender Counseling, Services & Rehabilitation, v15 n2 p109-16 1990

Examined surveys, court records, and anecdotal information of former adjudicated delinquents (n=273) to determine effects of juvenile justice intervention on outcome; specifically, whether delinquent labeling initiated a self-fulfilling prophecy. Found no significant relationship between juvenile probation experience rating and adult recidivism. (CM)
