Between November, 2000 and January, 2003, 1,354 adjudicated\r\nyouths from the juvenile and adult court systems in Maricopa County\r\n(Phoenix), Arizona (N = 654) and Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania (N\r\n= 700) were enrolled into the study.The enrolled youth were at\r\nleast 14 years old and under 18 years old at the time of their\r\ncommitting offense and were found guilty of a serious offense\r\n(predominantly felonies, with a few exceptions for some misdemeanor\r\nproperty offenses, sexual assault, or weapons offenses).Each\r\nstudy participant was followed for a period of seven years past\r\nenrollment, with the end result a comprehensive picture of life\r\nchanges in a wide array of areas over the course of this\r\ntime.The study sought to inform the ongoing debate in the\r\njuvenile justice system regarding the treatment and processing of\r\nserious adolescent offenders. The larger aim of the Pathways series is\r\nto improve decision-making by court and social service personnel and\r\nto clarify policy debates about alternatives for serious adolescent\r\noffenders.Additional datasets from the Pathways study will be\r\nreleased during 2013. These datasets will include\r\nofficial records information (e.g. re-arrest, placement), and monthly\r\nlife-calendar data on a range of topics (e.g.  school, work). These\r\nadditional datasets will not be publicly available, but rather made\r\navailable through ICPSR's restricted data access system.For\r\nmore information, please visit the Research on Pathways to\r\nDesistance web site.\r\n", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "accessURL": "https://www.icpsr.umich.edu/web/ICPSR/series/260", "title": "Research on Pathways to Desistance Series"}], "identifier": "4053", "issued": "2012-08-20T15:36:56", "keyword": ["academic achievement", "community involvement", "crime", "demographic characteristics", "family life", "friendships", "gangs", "household composition", "income", "interpersonal relations", "juvenile crime", "juvenile offenders", "neighborhood conditions", "personal adjustment", "psy"], "language": ["eng"], "license": "http://www.usa.gov/publicdomain/label/1.0/", "modified": "2017-12-14T12:21:29", "programCode": ["011:000"], "publisher": {"@type": "org:Organization", "name": "Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention", "subOrganizationOf": {"acronym": "OJP", "id": 22, "name": "Office of Justice Programs", "parentOrganization": {"acronym": "DOJ", "id": 10, "name": "Department of Justice"}, "parentOrganizationID": 10}}, "title": "Research on Pathways to Desistance Series"}
