Juvenile Justice administration in a nutshell
2002Co-Authors: Barry C. FeldAbstract:This Nutshell title focuses exclusively on the criminal and non-criminal misconduct of children that bring them within the jurisdiction of Juvenile courts and examines law enforcement, judicial, and administrative responses to that misconduct. It deals with issues of children's rights only insofar as they relate to the processes of investigating and prosecuting Juvenile offenders for delinquency and status-offenses. Like all Nutshells, it strives to provide a succinct exposition of the law for students studying Juvenile Justice, for lawyers who do not regularly practice in Juvenile court, and for legislators and policy officials involved in Juvenile Justice law reform efforts.

mental health problems in Juvenile Justice populations
Child and Adolescent Psychiatric Clinics of North America, 2006Co-Authors: Robert Vermeiren, Ine Jespers, Terrie E MoffittAbstract:The limited literature on mental health problems in Juvenile Justice population has reported that most youth in Juvenile Justice hold psychiatric pathology. Although conduct disorder and substance abuse are the most prevalent conditions in this population, many other diagnoses can be found at alarmingly high rates; research on other diagnoses (eg, autism, psychosis) is limited. This finding underscores the necessity of implementing adequate diagnostic assessment within forensic settings and of developing interventions programs that take into account the presence of psychiatric problems.

A Practical Approach to Evaluating and Improving Juvenile Justice Programs
Juvenile and Family Court Journal, 2004Co-Authors: James C Howell, Mark W. LipseyAbstract:For more than a decade, the Juvenile Justice field in the United States has been dominated by the seventh “moral panic” over Juvenile delinquency. This panic led to an overreaction to Juvenile delinquency by legislators and Juvenile Justice officials. The main consequence is a “crisis of overload” in many state and local Juvenile Justice systems across the country. Tools are available to help Juvenile courts effectively manage the overload of court clients. Most important, a new method has been developed for evaluating existing programs against research-based standards that have been synthesized from Juvenile Justice program evaluations. This tool enables states and localities to take a practical approach to improving Juvenile Justice system programs.

Juvenile Justice in Austria and the United States: Similarities and Differences:
International Journal of Police Science & Management, 2009Co-Authors: Peter C. Kratcoski, Magistrat Maximilian EdelbacherAbstract:This article compares Juvenile Justice practices in Austria and the United States. The sources of information include statistics provided by public agencies, interviews, analyses of legislation and data from Juvenile court reports. The legal structures of the Juvenile Justice systems of the two countries are compared and the effects of the adoption of community policing on the manner in which the police respond to youth deviance are considered, particularly in regard to the diversion of youths from official processing through the Juvenile Justice system by the police or the courts. The article describes the evolution of the Juvenile Justice systems in Austria and the United States, the changes in the forms of Juvenile Justice procedures in recent years mandated by legislation, and the expected consequences of these changes for both countries.
