A Preliminary Study to Develop a System for Probation Case Classification

This study investigated the latent risk factors at probation on the in-take case interview. Besides static risk factors dynamic risk factors were included in order to find out more effect predictors of recidivism. 642 probationers were participated from Y and C probational offices. Among them, 300 juveniles and 342 adults were included. For juvenile probationers, recidivism-related behavior was related to the types of measures and dispositions, number of accomplice, same kinds of crime, previous fine, previous probation, presence of criminal records, years of education, attitude on education, family to live with, family breakdown, parent' attitude on child-rearing, relationship with parent, admitting responsibility of current crime, attitude on intake interview and completeness of registration forms, and accordance of contents on registration forms. Prediction of recidivism-related behaviors for adult probationers had similar patterns to juveniles' but there were some dissimilarities. For adults, violation of Society Protection Law and early onset of delinquency were relatively more effective predictors to predict recidivism-related behavior compared to other risk factors. Also employment and job attitudes were effective predictors for predicting adults' recidivism.
