Abstract
The primary findings of the study to date deal with the
decrease in self-reported offending over time by most serious
adolescent offenders, the relative inefficacy of longer juvenile
incarcerations in decreasing recidivism, the effectiveness of
community-based supervision as a component of aftercare for
incarcerated youth, and the effectiveness of substance abuse
treatment in reducing both substance use and offending by
serious adolescent offenders
