Past research demonstrates a strong link between drug use and crime among justice-involved adolescents, yet little is known about the joint development between drug use variety and various types of criminal offending frequencies from adolescence to young adulthood. Using a sample of male adolescent offenders (N = 842), this article examines the coevolution of drug use variety and three separate types of offending frequencies. First, four group-based trajectory models identify unique group developmental patterns for drug use variety, drug sales offending, property offending, and violent offending. Next, three dual-trajectory models examine the coevolution between drug use variety and each type of criminal offending. Findings reveal a general pattern of desistance for both drug use and offending, while also illustrating notable variability in group trajectory patterns for drug use variety and criminal behavior. This article concludes that adolescents with elevated drug use variety make up a large proportion of frequent offenders.

研究司法参与的青少年中毒品使用品种和不同类型的犯罪频率的共同演变

过去的研究表明,在涉及司法的青少年中,毒品使用与犯罪之间有着密切的联系,但对于毒品使用种类与从青春期到成年后的各种犯罪频率之间的共同发展知之甚少。使用男性青少年罪犯样本(N= 842),本文考察了毒品使用品种和三种不同类型违规频率的共同演变。首先,四个基于群体的轨迹模型确定了针对毒品使用品种,毒品销售犯罪,财产犯罪和暴力犯罪的独特的群体发展模式。接下来,三个双重轨迹模型研究了毒品使用种类和每种犯罪类型之间的协同演化。研究结果揭示了普遍存在的对毒品使用和犯罪行为的抵制态度,同时还说明了毒品使用种类和犯罪行为的群体轨迹模式存在显着差异。本文得出的结论是,滥用毒品种类繁多的青少年构成了经常犯罪者的很大一部分。
