However, unaffected siblings had increased rates of substance abuse compared with unrelated general population controls, which meant that the risk increase for schizophrenia with substance abuse comorbidity compared with these siblings was substantially reduced (OR, 1.8; 95% CI, 1.4-2.4), suggesting ...
The group-based trajectory model derived three latent trajectory groups from the sample that exhibited distinctive demographic characteristics and pre-prison offending trajectories. Due to significant variation atthe state-level, a multilevel logit model was used to model the probability of receiving ...
descent and/or cultural identification are at higher risk of a range of disadvantageous outcomes including poorer educational achievement, higher rates of poverty and housing difficulties, higher risks of health problems, greater involvement in criminal offending, and higher rates of psychiatric disorder....
Theoretical links between gambling and crime were tested through three hypotheses: (1) that prisoners in the UK would have higher rates of problem gambling behaviour than the national population; (2) that if the link between gambling and crime is coincidental, gambling behaviour would be highly ...
2013:17). Other times the prediction is about a particular person who previously committed a crime and a risk assessment determines whether there is a risk of re-offending which then contributes to the decision on what punitive measures to employ in that person’s case (Northpointe 2015). It...
