评估青少年暴力犯罪的两种最常用方法的趋同效度（即，自我报告和逮捕）进行了评估。参与者是87名严重的少年犯和他们的母亲数字，主要来自贫困家庭。验证措施挖掘了既定的行为，家庭和同龄人的犯罪相关性。结果未能支持暴力犯罪或自我报告的暴力犯罪逮捕的能力，以准确地索引暴力犯罪行为。这项研究的几个方法学特征支持我们的假设，即研究结果不是虚假的。程序和概念的影响的研究结果进行了讨论。
The convergent validity of the two most frequently used methods for assessing violent offending in juveniles (i.e., self-reports and arrests) was evaluated. Participants were 87 serious juvenile offenders and their maternal figures, primarily from disadvantaged families. Validation measures tapped established behavioral, family, and peer correlates of delinquency. Results failed to support the ability of either arrests for violent crimes or self-reported violent offenses to index violent criminal behavior accurately. Several methodological features of the study support our hypothesis that the findings were not spurious. Procedural and conceptual implications of the findings are discussed.
