N2  - This paper seeks to solve some of the practical problems associated with describing and assessing efforts at delinquency prevention. Following a search of the professional literature, previous efforts are described and evaluative criteria are sug gested and then applied. The conclusion drawn is that it is unlikely that any of these projects successfully prevented delinquent behavior. Several explanations and possible solu tions are then offered.     <p>Language: en</p>
