作者研究了控制、认知不成熟和自我中心的犯罪思维因素与犯罪者特征（即，年龄、教育程度、刑期、服刑时间、接受心理健康服务）。典型相关分析的结果确定了一个犯罪思维集包含所有3个因素和罪犯特征集包含所有特征，除了年龄之间的显着和有意义的关系。在所有三个因素上，犯罪思维水平较高与受教育程度较高、刑期较长、服刑时间较长以及缺乏心理健康服务有关。提供治疗的罪犯，目标是减少刑事累犯和未来的调查方向动态累犯的风险因素和罪犯的特征之间的关系的影响进行了讨论。
The authors examined the relationship between criminal thinking factors of control, cognitive immaturity, and egocentrism, and offender characteristics (i.e., age, education, sentence length, time served, reception of mental health services) in 435 adult male offenders. Results of a canonical correlation analysis identified I significant and meaningful relationship between a criminal thinking set containing all 3 factors and an offender characteristic set containing all characteristics except for age. Higher levels of criminal thinking on all 3 factors were associated with more education, longer sentence length, more time served, and lack of reception of mental health services. Implications for providing treatment with offenders that targets reducing criminal recidivism and future directions for investigation into the relationship between dynamic recidivism risk factors and offender characteristics are discussed.
