TY - JOUR PY - 2005// TI - Using the Juvenile Offender Parent Questionnaire (JOPQ) as a Risk and Needs Assessment: A Prospective Study JO - Youth violence and juvenile justice A1 - Glaser, Brian A.

Based on the ecological model of child development, this instrument is designed to measure several parental constructs related to child behavior problems and delinquency. Findings suggest that specific parenting profiles are related to subsequent greater likelihood of recidivism and to specific offenses. Furthermore, the use of the JOPQ as an instrument to assess the needs of parents and the prevention of recidivism is supported.
