In analyses of real-world social agency data, particular combinations of personal, familial, societal, and juvenile-justice variables emerged as the best explanations for the problem.In addition, Mooradian suggests that culturally-sensitive measures are required in order to represent the particular experience of African-American youth and families. Analysis of some widely used clinical measures indicates that many of the included items and factors are inapplicable to African-Americans. Thus, he presents new scales, developed from these instruments, to improve the validity of measurement and the utility of the results.Historical issues in confinement of juveniles, and implications for further research, policy decisions, and intervention are discussed.Criminal justice (LFB Scholarly Publishing LLC)Discrimination in juvenile justice administrationUnited StatesJuvenile detentionUnited StatesAfrican American juvenile delinquentsDiscrimination in juvenile justice administrationJuvenile detentionAfrican American juvenile delinquents.364.36/089/96073Mooradian John K.1953-1865360MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910968493803321Disproportionate confinement of African-American juvenile delinquents4472418UNINA02967nam 2200673Ia 450 991097484300332120251116175506.01-134-75246-61-134-75247-40-203-69600-X1-280-06461-797866100646180-203-69509-710.4324/9780203695098 (CKB)1000000000249465(EBL)199938(OCoLC)437059924(SSID)ssj0000278949(PQKBManifestationID)11211536(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000278949(PQKBWorkID)10260525(PQKB)11553116(MiAaPQ)EBC199938(Au-PeEL)EBL199938(CaPaEBR)ebr10095060(CaONFJC)MIL6461(OCoLC)71348458(EXLCZ)99100000000024946519990202d1999 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrEducation for patients and clients /Vivien E.
