Purpose

To begin to develop an understanding of knowledge translation of early developmental crime prevention.

Methods

Involves a narrative review of experiments of early developmental prevention with measures of delinquency and criminal offending, and profiles two leading experiments, the Cambridge-Somerville Youth Study (CSYS) and the Montréal Longitudinal-Experimental Study.

Results

While the roots of early developmental crime prevention can be traced to studies of human development, experiments of preventive interventions are at the heart of knowledge translation and policy influence. This can be seen in the form of replications, the process of scaling up effective interventions for wider dissemination, and inspiration for prevention scientists to launch new and innovative experiments—sometimes with the aim to improve upon past results. For example, far from curtailing policy interest in a developmental approach to delinquency prevention or dampening the need for prevention experiments, the harmful effects reported in the 30-year follow-up of the CSYS instead had an influence on some new longitudinal-experimental studies in developmental and life-course criminology.

Conclusions

New experiments are needed to continue to advance early developmental crime prevention, and further research is needed to add to our understanding of knowledge translation in this area.

通过知识翻译伪造的早期发展性犯罪预防：进入百年预防实验的窗口

目的

开始发展对早期发展性犯罪预防的知识转化的理解。

方法

涉及对早期发展预防实验的叙述性综述，包括犯罪行为和犯罪行为，并概述了两个领先的实验：剑桥-萨默维尔青年研究（CSYS）和蒙特利尔纵向实验研究。

结果

虽然早期发展犯罪预防的根源可以追溯到人类发展研究，但预防干预的实验却是知识转化和政策影响的核心。这可以通过复制的形式，扩大有效干预措施以扩大传播的过程以及预防科学家发起新的创新实验的灵感得到体现，有时其目的是改善过去的结果。例如，CSYS 30年随访中报告的有害影响并没有减少对预防犯罪的发展方法的政策兴趣或减轻了预防实验的需要，反而影响了一些新的纵向实验研究。发展和人生历程犯罪学。

结论

需要进行新的实验以继续推进早期的发展性犯罪预防，还需要进一步的研究以加深我们对该领域知识翻译的理解。
