Title
Juvenile
detention
decisions
: a
study
of the
Influence
of
legal
and
extralegal
factors
Publisher
Central Connecticut State University
Date
2002
Resource Type
Master's Thesis
Notes
Contrary
to the
accepted
justifications
for the
use
of
detention
,
research
suggests
that
decision-makers
often
use
detention
for the
purposes
of
storage
,
punishment
, and
protection
of
children
. The
current
research
examines
the
influence
of
legal
and
extralegal
factors
on
detention
decisions
. The
research
is
based
on
data
gathered
from a
detention
district
in
Connecticut
that
serves
urban
,
suburban
, and
rural
jurisdictions
. The
primary
findings
of this
study
suggest
that the
sex
and
age
of the
child
influence
detention
decisions
.
Furthermore
,
detained
children
had
significantly
fewer
charges
than those
children
who
were
released
.
Implications
of the
findings
, as
well
as
suggestions
for
future
research
are
discussed
.
