The Life-Course of Serious and Violent Youth Grown Up is a groundbreaking work that fills significant gaps in the literature on youth involved in chronic, serious, and violent offending. Through longitudinal research and a long follow-up into adulthood, it challenges common perceptions about offending outcomes.
The book, which spans 20 years of data from the Incarcerated Serious and Violent Young Offender Study (ISVYOS), is a culmination of theoretical grounding, methodological sophistication, and empirically driven research. Initiated in 1998, the study follows 1,719 formerly incarcerated youth through adulthood, offering a contemporary perspective to questions about chronic offending in adolescence and social and offending outcomes in adulthood.
The authors provide a theoretically framed examination of new findings from the ISVYOS, focusing on participants' justice system involvement from onset to persistence to desistance. Contrary to past literature, ISVYOS findings challenge static descriptions of chronic offending and notions of the "youth super predator." It also challenges assertions that experiences and risk factors in childhood and adolescence are not informative of adult justice system involvement.
Together, the findings call for a more humanistic approach that recognizes the complex lives of individuals formerly incarcerated in adolescence. This book will be of great interest to scholars, researchers, and students of forensic psychology, developmental and life course criminology, youth justice, and violent crime.
