RESEARCH PAPER FORMAT
- Title Page Identify yourself, the class, title of the paper, and date.
- Introduction Identify your central question. What is it that you are investigating or discussing? Discuss in detail what is important about this topic. Every paper MUST have some kind of argument or thesis that you are trying to prove. Approximate length 1-2 pages.
- Literature Review Describe, evaluate, and criticize the work of authors we have discussed in class and those that you have researched in relation to your question. Be sure that your sources are sociological/criminological in focus. Collect and use at least ten scholarly criminological-sociological works (e.g., articles and books not used in the course) in juvenile delinquency plus any additional relevant materials that address the issue, case, or problem. Avoid psychological literature! Note any problems, inconsistencies, circular arguments, and contradictions in these materials that bear directly on your question. Describe previous research and use it as a basis for your own arguments. Did the authors ignore alternative data sources or alternative interpretations of information that you can demonstrate are damaging to their ideas? Show evidence that is well selected and is not arbitrary.
- Theoretical Position Discuss what your theoretical position says about the underlying nature of this issue/problem. You must present a theoretical statement and address what factors cause the issue/problem you are analyzing. Remember to keep your theory consistent with understanding and resolving the issue/problem that you raised in your problematic.
- Discussion Discuss the substance and nature of your position. Be sure to use all of the literature and related information to support your discussion. This should flow naturally out of the literature review and theoretical position. This is where you make the case for YOUR interpretation and understanding of the problem or issue. Show how your understanding/argument/position is different from what others (notably in your literature review) have done or concluded. What do you know after completing the project that you did not know in the beginning of your work? In addition, what are the policy implications of your position? What policy do we actually use with respect to this issue? Is public policy is inconsistent with theory and understanding of the issue/problem; should public or juvenile justice policy change? Approximate length 2-3 pages.
- Conclusion Now, present your OPINIONS separated from your discussion. Make a concluding comment about the topic. Are there any other avenues of research or activity that your research suggests to prevent or deal with juvenile delinquency? Approximate length 2-3 pages.
- Bibliography Include a bibliography of sources cited and used with the text of your paper (this includes any related materials you used).

ASSESSMENT, TREATMENT, AND SUPERVISION OF YOUTH WHO HAVE CAUSED SEXUAL ABUSE AND VICTIMIZATION
Overview of field: Old Paradigm
- Those—especially males--who have been sexually abused are going to become offenders.
- “Once an offender, always an offender.”
- Offenders—including children and adolescents-- do not respond positively to treatment.
- Only solution is to “lock them up and throw away the key.” Only other solution is castration.
- If male and acts out with same sex, must be homosexual.
Old Paradigm
- Must come from highly dysfunctional families.
- There is no specific family profile. No unique family pattern has been identified The characteristics of are diverse and may or may not be considered dysfunctional.
Old Paradigm
- Were sexually molested as children.
- Many were not sexually victimized as children.
- Will become adult sexual offenders.
- Current research shows that the sexual re-offense rate for those who receive treatment is low in most US settings. Studies suggest that the rates of sexual re-offense (5 – 14%) are substantially lower than the rates for other delinquent behavior (8 – 58%).
Research proves…
- In fact, the risk of child or juvenile reoffending once they have had treatment is lower than the risk of sexual harm by children or juveniles who have not acted out.
- They are just as likely to become victims as they are to reoffend.
- In one study, seven percent of those adjudicated for sexual offenses reoffended and six percent of those not adjudicated committed sex offenses.
Research proves…
- Another study showed that 85% of all future sex offenses will be committed by children & adolescents not identified as sex offenders.
- Another misconception involves the concept of specialness, meaning that this population is so difficult to deal with that only those certified to work with sex offenders should do so.
Old Paradigm
- These youth are similar in most ways to adult sex offenders.
- They are different from adult sex offenders in that they have lower recidivism rates, engage in fewer abusive behaviors over shorter periods of time, and have less aggressive sexual behavior.
Research proves…
- Juveniles are also, obviously, developmentally different than adults.
- They are different from adult sex offenders in that they have lower recidivism rates, engage in fewer abusive behaviors over shorter periods of time, and have less aggressive sexual behavior.
- Brains are still developing. It is thought that the male brain is fully developed by the age of 26.
Research proves…
- The vast majority of individuals who have been abused DO NOT go on to cause sexual harm.
- The vast majority of youth do respond to treatment and do not go on to cause more sexual harm.
- Interestingly, these youth are at high risk to commit conduct-type offenses.
Current research…
- The home is the most violent place in America.
- Trauma—including physical, sexual, and emotional abuse, and neglect has profound immediate and long term effects upon a child’s development, including attachment difficulties, self-esteem, academic problems, poor peer relationships, anger, developmental delays, and increased dependency.
Current research…
- Abuse definitely effects whether or not a person sexually offends. But to what degree, we do not know.
- The children who are both abused and witness abuse—particularly domestic violence--generally have the biggest problems.
Current research…
- Certain research has revealed that:
- Witnessing domestic violence and experiencing significant physical abuse combined with neglect may put an individual at higher risk to sexually offend.
- Domestic violence is showing to be one of the key factors in sexual offending behavior.
Current research…
- Empirically Supported Risk Factors—
- Deviant sexual interest;
- prior criminal sanctions for sexual offending;
- sexual offending against more than one victim;
- sexual offending against a stranger;
- social isolation;
- uncompleted sex offense specific tx.
Current research…
- Promising Risk Factors—
- Problematic parent-adolescent relationship;
- Attitudes supportive of sexual offending.
Current research…
- Possible Risk Factors:
- High stress family environment;
- Impulsivity;
- Antisocial interpersonal orientation;
- Interpersonal aggression;
- Negative peer associations;
Current research…
- Sexual preoccupation;
- Sexual offending against a male victim
- Sexual offending against a child;
- Threats, violence, or weapons in sexual offense;
- Environment supporting reoffending.

Yeah, we know about sexual development and hormones,
But what’s going on in the brain ?
Second onslaught of Rapid growth and pruning
New cells and neural pathway……....
Period of less stability and more impulsivity………
Moody, unpredictable, ……..mistakes are made !
Reconstruction designed to accomplish what it is being used for
(for better or worse)……...
Evaluating behavior
Is it a Problem?
If so . . . . .
What Kind of Problem?
Sexual behavior might be a problem for many reasons…
- It might be a problem for the person who is doing it…
because it puts the person at risk in some way:
(health, reproduction, exploitation, stigma, illegal,lowers self image or efficacy)
- It might be a problem for others…
because it makes them uncomfortable; violates norms,
standards, or values; breaks rules or regulations.
- OR, it might be a problem because it is
abusive and/or illegal…
- These are very different problems !
- ….but knowing the kind of problem helps identify reasonable interventions.
Defining Abusive Behavior
1. Consent vs. Cooperation - Compliance
2. Equality: Power - Control - Authority
3. Coercion: Pressure -- Threat -- Force
Universal goals…
- Communication: Express thoughts, feelings and needs
- Empathy: Identify, interpret & validate
emotions and needs of self and others
- Accountability: Accurate attributions of responsibility
- Emotion Regulation: ‘handle’ emotional states without engaging in harmful behaviors to self or others
- Increase Protective factors: Skill building where deficits, family functional strengths, individual functional strengths, environmental functional strengths
Sexual abuse by youth…
56 – 57% of Sexual Abuse of Boys
15 – 25% of Sexual Abuse of Girls
8% of Male Population

Core elements of Specialized treatment approach
- Research informs practice. These treatment principles are based on the current research in the field.
- Treatment needs to reflect the individualized needs of the youth and family including any co-occurring mental, behavioral, or substance abuse disorders.
- Sound core treatment components are reflective of a comprehensive assessment.
- Treatment elements are tailored to a youth’s cognitive ability, experience, and developmental stage
Treatment elements
- Psycho-education of youth and families including but not limited to: laws governing sexual behavior in New Mexico, identification of sexually inappropriate or abusive behaviors, elements of consensual sexual behavior, neuro-biological effects of trauma and attachment disruptions, components of healthy relationships (sexual and non-sexual), considerations with regard to pornography, and human sexuality
Treatment elements
- Building of Core Competencies through skills and strengths identification and practice. To increase overall mental, emotional, relational, spiritual, cognitive, and sexual health.
- Multi-sensorial and experiential exercises.
- Management of static or stable risks.
- Individualized target goals for dynamic risks and skill deficits.
Safety Planning
There are three different functions of safety plans:
1) To address the safety and well-being of the youth in relation to self harm;
2) To address the safety and well-being of the youth in relation to harm by others; and
3) To address the safety and well-being of others in relation to the youth.
What is a sexually abusive behavior?
- Defining sexually abusive behavior:
- Lack of Consent
- Lack of Equality
- Coercion
- The age of consent is 14 in NM. Therefore, anyone under the age of 14 cannot legally give consent.
Risk factors for recidivism
- Factors that indicate risk for recidivism by youth:
- History of multiple offenses, especially after adequate tx.
- History of repeated non-sexual offenses.
- Clear and persistent sexual interest in children.
- Failure to comply with sex offense specific tx.
- Self-evident disturbances of arousal and dysregulation.
- Verbal threats of intent to reoffend.
- Parental/guardian resistance to adequate supervision.
The use of polygraph raises ethically sensitive questions and concerns--
especially when this practice is used with minors
Use of Polygraph
*
*
Treatment providers and juvenile justice authorities can and should collaborate on cases but providers need to remain mindful that it is never their role to investigate, catch, prosecute, judge, or punish.
Treatment providers need to continually remind themselves of what their treatment goals are.
*
*
“It is less than responsible when a field embraces unusual, coercive, and intrusive practices with minors without simultaneously undertaking the rigorous testing needed to judge whether intended benefits actually exist.”
How do we teach responsible, caring, non-coercive behaviors if we cannot model that ourselves?
Supervision
- Specialized Probation
- Specialized Probation agreement
- Collaborative team effort
- Safety planning

Treatment of juvenile delinquency:
between punishment and resocialization
This paper will refer to the specific problems of
working in secure institutions, and will illustrate how
these environments have become more oriented
towards resocialization in recent years in Estonia.
Key points
Specifically - the shift away from punishment model
towards resocialization model is a key challenge for
the development of correctional system in Estonia.

Correctional
facility
For the past fifteen years, the Ohio juvenile justice
system has developed between punitive and
rehabilitation-oriented responses to the social problems
of youth delinquency.
Following the deinstitutionalization trend in mental
health, in the juvenile justice practices are
characterized the same trends.
Institutions: punishment versus resocialization
In the 1990s, these strategies were downplayed in
favor of strict sanctions, incarceration, lengthier
sentences, and certifying youths as adults.
Stemming from this legacy of competing influences,
the current juvenile justice system struggles to
balance its orientation toward both
corrections and resocialization.
Nowadays correctional system is not oriented to
young prisoners’ behavior but
to their resocialization.

Nowadays system of training school is too much
oriented to guaranteeing juvenile delinquents’
behavior and not their resocialization. .

How to change the conflict?
Institutions: punishment versus resocialization
Seriously troubled young people in training schools in
Estonia were the target group of a project funded by
the Estonian Ministry of Education and Research.
The main purpose of the project (Kõiv, 2007) was to
find evidence for a balance between two opposite
approaches to dealing with young offenders –
punishment versus resocialization.
Institutions: punishment versus resocialization
The project found overall evidence that punishment
approaches are not as effective as structured
intervention programmes that focus on cognitive-
behavioural changes in young people.
Support programmes that teach positive (pro)social
behavior and other effective social/life skills, practical
employment skills and emphasise a smooth transition
from training school to mainstream school or the
workplace, had relatively positive effects.
Institutions: punishment versus resocialization
The other focus of the project was to examine the
nature and effectiveness of social networking among
young people both in the school and after leaving
the school.
Young people with a long history of dissatisfaction at
school often managed well when they had the
possibility to settle into smaller classes with more
individual attention from a supportive network of
teachers and specialists. Despite training schools
sometimes being a long way from home, they
sometimes provided the greatest degree of stability
and improved young people’s educational
achievements.
Institutions: punishment versus resocialization
As opposed to the punishment approach, resocialization
models help offenders to experience the rewards of
positive or pro-social behaviors as they come to
understand the root causes of their misconduct.
Treatment-oriented programs also try to prepare youth
for reintegration into the community through contact
with families, schools, and other systems surrounding
the young people.
Summary
The shift away from punishment towards
resocialization is a key challenge for the
development of the whole correctional
(especially training school) system in Ohio.
