A Cohort Analysis Of Juvenile Probationers From The Kalamazoo County Juvenile Court, 1971, Karl B. Kucab
A Cohort Analysis Of Juvenile Probationers From The Kalamazoo County Juvenile Court, 1971, Karl B. Kucab
Masters Theses
Data on 171 juveniles placed on probation in 1971 was compiled and analyzed. Thirteen independent and six dependent variables were tested bivariately and multivariately. The recidivism rate for the cohort was also determined.
This was the first analysis of the court's probation service. It served to supply the court with three "measures" of recidivism, a "Delinquency Seriousness Index," and an adult follow-up of the cohort.
Results showed an effectiveness rate of 60.25%. In addition, 13 of the 78 hypotheses advanced were accepted and four significant predictor models were constructed. "Early age at onset" of delinquency, a familiar predictor of recidivism, …

Predicting Delinquent Sub-Types With The Social History Questionnaire, Charles S. Sulcer
Predicting Delinquent Sub-Types With The Social History Questionnaire, Charles S. Sulcer
Masters Theses
A major problem encountered in the juvenile courts concerns the large number of young offenders placed on probation, as well as the seriousness of their violations. Representative studies by Jenkins and Glickman (1947), Hathaway and Monachesi (1953), and Shinohara and Jenkins (1967) have pointed out the complexities of delinquent behavior by indicating that most legal authorities are often unable to determine who will repeat illegal acts.
This problem necessitates some objective approach toward identifying potential repeaters and non-repeaters. Such a technique would be useful in studying the early stages of delinquent behavior and provide a means of studying the growing …

A Comparison Of Incarcerated And Non-Incarcerated Women Based On The M.M.P.I., Rose Marie Carter
Masters Theses
The field for research on women offenders provides an extensive opportunity for scientific investigation. Many writers (Gibbons, 1971; Cunningham, 1964; Sutherland, 1968) have discussed the causes of crime and their resulting social implications. Organized mass presentations of the movement of crime among women is negligible. Today female incarcerates make up approximately 11 per cent (Lerner, 1972) of the total number in state and federal penitentiaries. Previous research (Cunningham, 1964) on female felons found poor self-concept, excessive dependency and pathological emotionality to be a consistent pattern in women criminals. Other research (Apfeldorf, 1971; Guze, 1959) found criminal and non-criminal groups could …
