“…The ASRDS has a Grade Four (approximately 9-10 years of age) reading level and incorporates adolescent age appropriate language. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses have consistently revealed seven internally consistent subscales, and recent separate administrations of the ASRDS with Australian adolescents have produced satisfactory reliability coefficients across these (subscales): Abuse of Property (α = .87-.91), Hard Drug-Related Offenses (α = .74-.89), Physical Aggression (α = .85-.88), Stealing Offenses (α = .82-.90), School Misdemeanors (α = .86-.88), Soft Drug (α = .84-.88), and Vehicle-Related Offenses (α = .88-.94; see Carroll, Houghton, Durkin, & Hattie, 2009, for a comprehensive review; Carroll et al, 2006;Gunasekera, Houghton, Glasgow, & Boyle, 2014;Gunasekera, Houghton, Glasgow, Carroll, & Hunter, 2016;Houghton, Carroll, Tan, & Hopkins, 2008;Houghton, Tan, Khan, & Carroll, 2013). These data provide confidence in using the ASRDS as a contemporary measure of self-reported delinquency.…”
