Hernandez, Sara Ferguson, Tom D. Kennedy1st ed. 2020.Cham :Springer International Publishing :Imprint: Springer,2020.1 online resource (81 pages)SpringerBriefs in Behavioral Criminology,2194-18663-030-38167-6 Includes bibliographical references and index.Introduction to Juvenile Homicide -- Typologies/Pathways -- Psychosocial Protective and Risk Factors -- Case Studies -- Brain Development & Case Law -- Prevention, Intervention, and Reintegration.This book focuses on the small but disturbing percentage of homicides by children that occur each year, providing a brief overview of the legal, individual, and social aspects of this phenomenon. Since the 1980s, these crimes have been on the rise and the resulting legal response has been harsher punishments as well as treatment of children like adults. This has led to a host of failures in the juvenile justice system wherein recidivism is high and general outcome is low. The book reviews the literature on youth homicide, including gender, age, and race factors, as well as individual, familial, and environmental risks. The authors seek to aid in the identification and understanding of juvenile homicide to raise awareness of both a population that receives little formal psychological intervention and of the systemic deficiencies that affect these individuals as well as society itself. Exploring current theories, trends, and common factors in juvenile homicide, this brief aims to improve prevention, intervention, and reintegration of young offenders into the community.SpringerBriefs in Behavioral Criminology,2194-1866Forensic psychologyForensic Psychologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Y20130Forensic psychology.Forensic Psychology.364.1520835364.152083Hernandez Katelyn Aauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut857574Ferguson Saraauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autKennedy Tom Dauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910380740603321A Closer Look at Juvenile Homicide1914863UNINA
