Risk Factors for Juvenile Recidivists Versus One-Time Offenders in Argentina: Comparisons with Other Countries

Abstract: This article analyses risk factors for criminal recidivism of young offenders in Argentina, compared with studies in other countries; 65 recidivists are compared with 59 one-time offenders. Effect sizes were calculated for 24 risk factors for recidivism. Seven groups of risk factors were compared: (a) demographic information, (b) offence history, (c) family factors, (d) educational factors, (e) substance use history, (f) social factors, and (g) community and societal influences. Large effects on recidivism for… Show more

“…Juvenile delinquency has severe consequences, from immediate physical and mental harm to the potential development of a lifelong criminal career and even prison sentencing (Khoury-Kassabri et al 2010; Loeber and Farrington 2012). In an attempt to shed light on this phenomenon, scholars have offered and explored various risk and protective factors of the involvement of youth in criminal behaviour (Antle et al 2020; Geerlings et al 2020; Liu and Miller 2020; Orlando and Farrington 2021). However, to date, no research has referred to these risk and protective factors in the special context of political conflicts.…”

“…Juvenile delinquency is a core issue in criminology and criminal justice, and various elements of this phenomenon have been subject to extensive research (Khoury-Kassabri, Mishna, and Massarwi 2019;Loeber and Farrington 2012;Thompson and Bynum 2016). Specifically, numerous studies have examined the risk and protective factors of involvement in juvenile delinquency (Orlando and Farrington 2021;Zhao, Ren, and Chen 2023). For instance, parental attachment (Lee, Moon, and Garcia 2020) and religious orientation (Mohammad and Banse 2023) have been identified as associated with lower levels of juvenile delinquency, while high impulsivity (Geerlings et al 2020) and low socio-economic status (Shong, Abu Bakar, and Islam 2019) predict more involvement in this type of behaviour.…”

“…Recidivism is defined as "the official criminal participation (based on a legal record) of a person who, after having been convicted of a previous crime, commits a new offense for which he incurs another conviction" (Zara & Farrington, 2016, p. 5). Youth recidivism is a problem with social, economic, and public health implications, and its prevalence varies according to the context (Orlando & Farrington, 2021;Zara & Farrington, 2016). More knowledge is needed about the risk and protective factors in this population to determine which young people may be at most risk of recidivism (Piquero, Farrington, Nagin, & Moffitt, 2010;Sousa, Cardoso, & Cunha, 2019).…”
