collect data

The Juvenile Affairs Division provided the records without person-identifiable data (i.e., name, ID) to the researchers. The researchers coded the above data (i.e., the offenders' sociodemographic data, medical history, and criminal history). Demographic characteristics were collected, which are the offenders' age, gender, occupation, education level, and residence (district). We recorded the offenders' household members (without the name or age), main caregivers (e.g., father, or mother), and the parents' socioeconomic and marital status. We also tracked whether the offenders live with family members with mental illness, whether they are from at-risk families, and whether had been victims of domestic violence. The medical history and deviant (or criminal) behaviors will be collected in the attached measure.
