Collaborative Proposal Adolescent Social Development

项目摘要

Juvenile incarceration removes young people from their homes, schools, and communities during a period of substantial social development. Incarceration not only isolates adolescents from typical sources of socialization (e.g., family, friends, mentors, teachers, coaches) and increases exposure to antisocial influences (e.g., fellow inmates), but also reduces adolescents' opportunities to engage in traditional social interactions. This research examines the effects of juvenile incarceration on adolescents' social development and social relationship quality. Further, the study will explore potential ripple effects that such disruptions to social functioning may have on adolescents' mental health and future offending. The information garnered from this study may inform changes to juvenile justice policies and juvenile incarceration practices to reduce negative effects of incarceration on social development.This project consists of a longitudinal study of approximately 300 adolescents (13-17 years) across a period of two years. This sample will consist of three distinct groups of adolescents: 1) incarcerated adolescents, 2) adjudicated adolescents sentenced to community probation, and 3) community adolescents with no prior arrests. Participants will be statistically matched across the three groups on variables associated with incarceration (e.g., age, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, gender, prior behavior) to allow for inferences to be made about group-level differences in social development, relationship quality, mental health symptoms, and offending behavior, controlling for pre-existing differences on matched constructs. Participants will complete 7 structured interviews and five weeks of daily diary assessments about their social competence, social relationships, mental health symptoms, and criminal offending behavior. Official records of subsequent offending will also be provided for all justice-involved participants. The proposed research is the first study of its kind to directly disentangle the potential effects of juvenile incarceration on adolescent social development.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

青少年监禁使青少年在社会发展的实质性阶段离开了他们的家庭、学校和社区。监禁不仅使青少年与典型的社会化来源（例如，家庭、朋友、导师、老师、教练）并增加对反社会影响的暴露（例如，这不仅会影响到囚犯（同狱囚犯）的健康，而且会减少青少年参与传统社会交往的机会。本研究旨在探讨青少年监禁对青少年社会性发展和社会关系质量的影响。此外，该研究还将探讨这种对社会功能的破坏可能对青少年的心理健康和未来犯罪产生的潜在涟漪反应。从这项研究中获得的信息可以为改变少年司法政策和少年监禁做法提供信息，以减少监禁对社会发展的负面影响，该项目包括对大约300名青少年（13-17岁）进行为期两年的纵向研究。该样本将由三个不同的青少年群体组成：1）被监禁的青少年，2）被判社区缓刑的青少年，3）以前没有被捕的社区青少年。参与者将在与监禁相关的变量（例如，年龄、种族、社会经济地位、性别、先前的行为），以允许对社会发展、关系质量、心理健康症状和犯罪行为中的组水平差异进行推断，控制匹配结构上的预先存在的差异。参与者将完成7次结构化访谈和5周的日常日记评估，内容涉及他们的社交能力、社会关系、心理健康症状和犯罪行为。还将向所有涉及司法的参与者提供随后犯罪的正式记录。这项研究是第一个直接揭示青少年监禁对青少年社会发展潜在影响的研究，该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为值得通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估来支持。
