Peer Delinquency and Gang Involvement
- Gang Involvement: (subject-baseline, subject-follow-up, collateral-follow-up, subject-release)
An assessment of the subject's gang involvement. This
assessment is completed by the subject (reporting on his/her
involvement in a gang, at subject baseline, subject follow-up, and
the release interview) and by the collateral (reporting on the
subject's involvement in a gang, at collateral follow-up).
- Peer Delinquency: (subject-baseline, subject-follow-up, collateral-follow-up, subject-release)
Items assessing the number of friends who engage in antisocial
activity. This assessment is completed by the subject (reporting on
his/her friends, at subject baseline and subject follow-up) and the
collateral (reporting on the subject's friends, at collateral
follow-up). In the release interview, this focuses on the lifetime
antisocial activity of the adolescent's peers in
the institution.
