Identifier	Thesis 1624
Author	Sylvester, Roger P
Title	Instituting a juvenile review board and investigating officers['] responses / Roger P. Sylvester
Publisher	Central Connecticut State University
Date	2000
Resource Type	Master's Thesis
Notes	The present study explores the need to research, recommend and implement a Juvenile Review Board and measures officer responses to that Juvenile Review Boards' inception. The study begins with the police department looking at its ability to self examine itself for change and ultimately implement change. The review board was conceptionalized and then activated with diversion fixed as agency policy. The focus of a Juvenile Review Board is its alternative sanction to juvenile court for juveniles who commit misdemeanor crimes. Officer discretion was removed to two alternatives. These alternatives were 1) divert the juvenile to the Juvenile Review Board or 2) refer the juvenile to juvenile court. The study would measure officers' responses when officer discretion is removed from juvenile delinquency investigations and referrals. Thirty officers were trained in the new procedures and surveyed. The results indicate that 1) training needed additional time to be more effective, 2) Officers agreed with the diversionary process, 3) Officers accepted the removal of discretion, 4) there was a significant correlation between the concept that the implementation did not create more work but would reduce juvenile delinquency, 5) Officers believed there would be a high level of cooperation from parents and juveniles but were split concerning cooperation from victims.
