Patterns of specialization and escalation in crime: A longitudinal analysis of juvenile and adult arrest transitions in the Glueck data
Abstract
dc:descriptionThis dissertation analyzes the extent to which offending patterns were characterized by specialization and escalation. Emphasis is placed on the theoretical, methodological and policy issues related to the nature of offending. Most prior research on patterns of specialization and escalation looks at the offending histories of either juveniles or adults. The Glueck data provides the arrest histories of 500 delinquent boys from adolescence into adulthood.
