Purpose

The purpose of this study was to determine whether core constructs from the control (impulsivity resulting from poor parental discipline leads to crime) and moral (weak moral values lead to crime) models of criminal lifestyle development were capable of predicting crime continuance in early-to-mid adolescent youth.

Design/methodology/approach

Weak parental supervision and lack of remorse for antisocial conduct on the part of the child were correlated with subsequent delinquency in 1,850 (1,685 males, 165 females) early-to-mid adolescent delinquents. Analyses were based exclusively on data extracted from New York City probation, family court and police files.

Findings

Results from a negative binomial regression analysis revealed that both weak parental supervision and lack of remorse for antisocial conduct predicted subsequent delinquency over a period of six months, net the effects of age, sex, ethnicity, prior delinquency, sibling delinquency, negative peer associations, substance use and a felony charge.

Research limitations/implications

These findings provide preliminary support for the control (low parental supervision) and moral (lack of remorse) models of criminal lifestyle development.

Practical implications

Weak parental supervision and failure to express remorse for antisocial actions increased risk of future delinquency by 19% and 29%, respectively. Teaching parents to be more effective disciplinarians and encouraging the development of moral values in youthful offenders may be of value in promoting desistance to crime in early juvenile offenders.

Originality/value

The importance of these results is that they reinforce prior findings obtained using self-report measures with data collected from official records.

父母监督薄弱和对儿童se悔的缺乏可作为青少年早期至中期犯罪青少年近端犯罪连续性的预测指标

目的

这项研究的目的是确定犯罪生活方式发展的控制(由不良父母纪律导致的冲动导致犯罪)和道德(弱道德价值观导致犯罪)模型的核心构造是否能够预测早期至早期犯罪的持续性。 -中青年时期。

设计/方法/方法

父母监督薄弱和对孩子的反社会行为缺乏mor悔与随后的1,850名青少年中早犯罪(男性1,685名,女性165名)的犯罪相关。分析仅基于从纽约市缓刑,家庭法院和警察档案中提取的数据。

发现

负面的二项式回归分析结果显示,父母的监督不力和对反社会行为的re悔都预示了六个月期间的后续犯罪,这将净影响年龄,性别,种族,先前犯罪,兄弟姐妹犯罪,同伴消极,物质使用和重罪指控。

研究局限/意义

这些发现为犯罪生活方式发展的控制模型(父母的低监督)和道德模型(无悔)提供了初步的支持。

实际影响

父母的监督薄弱以及对反社会行为不表示re悔,分别使未来犯罪的风险增加了19%和29%。教导父母成为更有效的惩戒者,并鼓励青少年犯罪者发展道德观念,可能对促进抵制早期犯罪者的犯罪有帮助。

创意/价值

这些结果的重要性在于,它们使用从官方记录中收集的数据,加强了使用自我报告措施获得的先前发现。
