Resumen
NAVARRO-PEREZ, José Javier y PASTOR-SELLER, Enrique. Dynamic factors in the behavior of young offenders with social adjustment. A study of recidivism. Psychosocial Intervention [online]. 2017, vol.26, n.1, pp.19-27. ISSN 2173-4712. https://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.psi.2016.08.001.
The aim of this paper is to assess the risk of recidivism by analysing the impact of dynamic factors on adolescents in conflict with the law (ACLs). To this end we evaluate the social adjustment of a sample of 157 ACLs, using the Structured Assessment of Violence Risk in Youth tool (SAVRY) along with other qualitative analysis techniques to triangulate the empirical process. The extensive structure of relationships and occasional links that these ACLs have with formal and informal learning and employment networks point to a good level of adjustment in the future and a low level of recidivism. However, the risk of recidivism is increased by their limited ability to solve problems and their impulsiveness in dealing with difficulties. A special area of interest lies in the relationships and influences that ACLs form with their surroundings in order to avoid or indulge in high-risk practices. These have an effect on their everyday activities and can determine their level of social adjustment.
