https://padlet.com/jiaminglyu/2y9lyehs5yf3lb4c This padlet will mainly explore various factors affecting youth crime and approaches to prevent and solve the youth crime through academic literature and videos. Among the many influencing factors, the academic journals specifically focus on the complex impact of racial factors on youth crime. en-us 2021-02-21 00:09:37 UTC 2023-05-16 05:03:44 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.net/icons/png/270d.png JiamingLyu https://padlet.com/jiaminglyu/2y9lyehs5yf3lb4c/wish/1222228433
Bart Lubow: Structural racism plays a major role in which youth are arrested and go to jail.]]> 2021-02-21 00:15:51 UTC https://padlet.com/jiaminglyu/2y9lyehs5yf3lb4c/wish/1222228433 JiamingLyu https://padlet.com/jiaminglyu/2y9lyehs5yf3lb4c/wish/1222244898 Two Groups of youths (one white and one black) being interviewed about race and violence.]]> 2021-02-21 00:40:30 UTC https://padlet.com/jiaminglyu/2y9lyehs5yf3lb4c/wish/1222244898 JiamingLyu https://padlet.com/jiaminglyu/2y9lyehs5yf3lb4c/wish/1222251417 2021-02-21 00:50:38 UTC https://padlet.com/jiaminglyu/2y9lyehs5yf3lb4c/wish/1222251417 JiamingLyu https://padlet.com/jiaminglyu/2y9lyehs5yf3lb4c/wish/1222254167 The author supplemented the influence of race on youth crime rates by studying various beliefs and institutions in the African American communities, and concluded that these beliefs and systems reduce youth crime. The author developed a cross-canceling model of the impact of race on crime and tested it with data from the National Youth Survey. The results show that factors such as single-parent families, less education, and crime-ridden communities increase the criminal behavior of African American youth relative to Whites. However, factors such as increased religious beliefs, powerful family bonds and decreased alcohol consumption will reduce the criminal behavior among African American youth. Nevertheless, these factors have actually been ignored in the study of race and crime. Therefore, the overall picture of the relationship between race and youth crime provided by this study contradicts the stereotypes of violent, aggressive, and criminally prone to African Americans youth.]]> 2021-02-21 00:54:50 UTC https://padlet.com/jiaminglyu/2y9lyehs5yf3lb4c/wish/1222254167 JiamingLyu https://padlet.com/jiaminglyu/2y9lyehs5yf3lb4c/wish/1222255025 2021-02-21 00:56:17 UTC https://padlet.com/jiaminglyu/2y9lyehs5yf3lb4c/wish/1222255025 JiamingLyu https://padlet.com/jiaminglyu/2y9lyehs5yf3lb4c/wish/1222255746 2021-02-21 00:57:32 UTC https://padlet.com/jiaminglyu/2y9lyehs5yf3lb4c/wish/1222255746 JiamingLyu https://padlet.com/jiaminglyu/2y9lyehs5yf3lb4c/wish/1222259257 2021-02-21 01:03:11 UTC https://padlet.com/jiaminglyu/2y9lyehs5yf3lb4c/wish/1222259257 JiamingLyu https://padlet.com/jiaminglyu/2y9lyehs5yf3lb4c/wish/1222260136 2021-02-21 01:04:25 UTC https://padlet.com/jiaminglyu/2y9lyehs5yf3lb4c/wish/1222260136 JiamingLyu https://padlet.com/jiaminglyu/2y9lyehs5yf3lb4c/wish/1222271946 The youth crime ‘problem’ is examined as a social construction and moral panic created by institutions in Western societies. The talk traces the evolution of youth crime into a phenomenon persistently misrepresented as an escalating social epidemic. The developmental life stages of ‘childhood’ and ‘adolescence’ as inventions are explored, highlighting differences between young people and adults. In this way, ‘youth crime’ can be identified as a social problem requiring distinct responses. A running theme is the child as a source of adult anxiety and fear, motivating societies to create structures, processes, theories and images of youth crime that punish law breakers. The ‘solution’ is the ‘positive youth justice’ model. Children should not be punished as if they are adults but their criminal behaviour should be seen as a normal part of growing up. Instead, they should be worked with to meet their needs, to embrace their human rights and to promote their life chances.]]> 2021-02-21 01:21:43 UTC https://padlet.com/jiaminglyu/2y9lyehs5yf3lb4c/wish/1222271946 JiamingLyu https://padlet.com/jiaminglyu/2y9lyehs5yf3lb4c/wish/1222273245 Juvenile delinquency, also known as "juvenile offending", is participation in illegal behavior by minors (juveniles, i.e. individuals younger than the statutory age of majority). Most legal systems prescribe specific procedures for dealing with juveniles, such as juvenile detention centers, and courts. A juvenile delinquent in the United States is a person who is typically below 18 (17 in New York, North Carolina, New Hampshire, and Texas) years of age and commits an act that otherwise would have been charged as a crime if they were an adult. Depending on the type and severity of the offense committed, it is possible for people under 18 to be charged and treated as adults.]]> 2021-02-21 01:23:47 UTC https://padlet.com/jiaminglyu/2y9lyehs5yf3lb4c/wish/1222273245 JiamingLyu https://padlet.com/jiaminglyu/2y9lyehs5yf3lb4c/wish/1222275628 More and more children are being criminalised, but what can schools do to try and prevent children from getting involved in crime and entering the criminal justice system? Rod Morgan, former chair of the Youth Justice Board, says schools need to reconsider excluding children, as, if they’re not in school, this can increase their likelihood of being involved in criminal behaviour. At Brislington Enterprise College in Bristol, they’re trying to reduce the number of exclusions with a restorative justice approach, in which victims and offenders are brought together. Uniquely these 'conferences' count towards local police crime targets. The school works closely with its own policeman trained in the use of Restorative Justice. We find out what he thinks about the process and how the staff feel about sometimes violent pupils being allowed to stay in school.]]> 2021-02-21 01:27:44 UTC https://padlet.com/jiaminglyu/2y9lyehs5yf3lb4c/wish/1222275628 JiamingLyu https://padlet.com/jiaminglyu/2y9lyehs5yf3lb4c/wish/1222282172 Sport has great potential to empower youth and help them find the right path in life! Don't you agree? The Line Up Live Up​ global initiative on youth crime prevention — launched under the UNODC Global Programme for the Implementation of the Doha Declaration — uses sport to empower young people from marginalized communities and help them develop essential life skills that increase adaptive and positive behaviour addressing vulnerabilities that are linked to violence, crime and drug use. Involving local communities and working through youth and sport centres as well as schools, the youth crime prevention initiative actively engages youth as ambassadors for safe and healthy lifestyles and embeds sport and physical activity within the social fabric of groups and local communities.]]> 2021-02-21 01:38:34 UTC https://padlet.com/jiaminglyu/2y9lyehs5yf3lb4c/wish/1222282172 JiamingLyu https://padlet.com/jiaminglyu/2y9lyehs5yf3lb4c/wish/1222291401 This study utilizes data from the Education Longitudinal Study of 2002 and incorporates multilevel
modeling techniques to examine the intersectionality of gender, race, and ethnicity in the relationship
between school-based activities and youth victimization at school.

ethnicity when examining youth violence.]]> 2021-02-21 01:49:54 UTC https://padlet.com/jiaminglyu/2y9lyehs5yf3lb4c/wish/1222291401
