Description

<p>Reduction of criminality in late teenage years indicated in the age-crime curve was examined in this research. In order to analyze factors of criminality reduction, a follow-up survey over a maximum of 1,612 days was conducted on 1,544 juvenile delinquents who left a juvenile classification home and existence of recidivism (reentry into juvenile classification homes) was investigated to confirm reduction of criminality by gender and age. At the same time, main factors of criminality reduction were examined by understanding the association with the subscales of MJCA. As a result, the reentry rate into juvenile classification homes was 26.0％ for boys and 18.3％ for girls. When the reentry situation was compared by gender and age, a significant age effect was confirmed for boys, and factors of boys’ recidivism extended into a broader scope than girls’. Furthermore, when factors of recidivism were compared by age in the case of boys, they varied depending on age, suggesting that reduction of criminality resulting from aging is strongly influenced by factors different for each age, not that it varies by the influence of a single main factors.</p>
