youth development

Focusing on the Steinberg & Scott (2003) article( attached below) , what issues in

the justice process cannot be resolved by looking at

developmental information? For example, in three recent

Supreme Court cases (Roper v. Simmons, Graham v. Florida;

Miller v. Alabama) this type of information (e.g., youth

development) was used—in part—to limit severe sanctions for

offenses committed by youth.

2. What type of information should be used in terms of placing

boundaries on sanctions for juvenile offenders? Can

understanding developmental processes better inform juvenile

justice practice and policy? How so?

3. Thinking about all of the readings collectively, what are the most

important points to be drawn from these readings?
