Abstract

This study aims to identify the risk-need of juveniles referred to the Juvenile Training School (JTS) in Japan (n = 924; research 1), to examine changes in dynamic risk factors through rehabilitation in JTS (research 2), to clarify relationship between reassessment and recidivism after release (research 3), by analyzing longitudinal data collected by an assessment tool called Ministry-of-Justice-Case-Assessment-tool (MJCA) in Japan.
