Abstract

This research examines the risk and protective factors associated with reoffending amongst young, first time offenders in order to better explain alarming recidivism rates. Furthermore, this study shows that age at the time of first arrest, peer delinquency, and parental monitoring were key factors in predicting recidivism.
