Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Cincinnati, 2010.

A widely accepted tenet of corrections is the necessity of the effective assessment and the targeting of offender needs to reduce recidivism. In large part, current assessment tools and correctional practice have been based on theories and characteristics of male offending. However, some theorists argue that correctional assessment and intervention should be gender specific, based on the premise that the risk factors for delinquency and crime differ between males and females. This dissertation will identify and compare the risk factors for male and female juvenile offenders in large Midwestern city. Examining a sample of juveniles under various levels of community supervision, this study evaluates the validity of an array of demographic, historical and situational characteristics for predicting several delinquent outcomes. This study found that, across outcomes, general risk factors as measured by the Youth Level of Service/Case Management Inventory were consistently significant for both males and females, suggesting little, if any gender difference. Further, several gender specific risk factors (i.e. abuse history and mental health) were shown to be significant predictors for both male and female delinquent outcomes.
