Abstract
- This study investigated the progression of misconduct for serious and violent juveniles receiving a blended sentence.
- Four groups were identified emphasizing the heterogeneous nature of juvenile institutional misconduct over three years.
- Relative to abstainers, the three other groups are indistinguishable in the frequency of infractions by year three.
- 20% of juvenile offenders commit infractions at a high rate from the outset of incarceration and continue violating rules.
- Convictions for assault, robbery, and homicide are related to membership in the early onset group.
