Unraveling Juvenile Delinquency: The Glueck Report

·1950·Journal of Education

Abstract

How are delinquent boys different from boys who stay out of trouble? Can we spot possible future lawbreakers early, even as early as first grade? Which is more important in terms of future behaviour, the quality of a boy's home life, or whether he lives in a slum area? The answers to these and many other questions have been sought by a husband-and-wife team of criminologists, Professor Sheldon Glueck and Dr. Eleanor Touroff Glueck of Harvard Law School in a pioneering Ifl-year investigation of the causes of juvenile delinquency. The results 0 f their study, made public recently when their report Unraveling Juvenile Delinquency was published by the Commonwealth Fund in New York, are of significance to every teacher.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
