TY - JOUR PY - 2003// TI - Random Acts of Delinquency: Trauma and Self-Destructiveness in Juvenile Offenders JO - Child and adolescent social work journal A1 - Baer, Judith A1 - Maschi, Tina SP - 85 EP - 98 VL - 20 IS - 2 N2 - This article provides an explanatory model of the way in which trauma leads to serious delinquency. Using perspectives from information processing, social learning, and self-regulation theories, we present evidence to suggest that adolescents whose lives were shaped by trauma perceive and encode social cues differently than non-traumatized individuals. A number of assessment tools and therapeutic interventions are recommended, followed by suggestions for advocating on the behalf of adolescents incarcerated in the juvenile justice system.
