TL;DR: It is found that adolescent boys who are stopped by police report more frequent engagement in delinquent behavior 6, 12, and 18 months later, independent of prior delinquency, a finding that is consistent with labeling and life course theories.
Journal ArticleDOI
Human Agency and Explanations of Criminal Desistance: Arguments for a Rational Choice Theory
TL;DR: The authors provide a critical theoretical assessment of both the age-graded informal social control theory of desistance and the theory of cognitive and emotional transformation, illuminating the critical theoretical omissions and empirical inconsistencies in each.
Journal ArticleDOI
Desistance from Crime and Identity: An Empirical Test With Survival Time
TL;DR: The authors provided an empirical assessment of individual subjective considerations in desistance by looking at the relationship between good identities, intentional self-change, and desistance using survival time data from a sample of serious drug-troubled adult offenders released from prison whose arrest records are followed for almost a 20-year period.
Journal ArticleDOI
Desistance for a Long-Term Drug-Involved Sample of Adult Offenders: The Importance of Identity Transformation
TL;DR: In this paper, the utility of identity theory of desistance (ITD) in explaining desistance in a contemporary cohort of adult drug-involved offenders was investigated. But the study was limited to a mixed-race sample of offenders who were released from prison in the early 1990s and re-interviewed in 2009 through 2011.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Results reveal that concerns about appearing racist are actually associated with increased support for coercive policing-potentially further eroding public trust.
