Abstract:

Desistance should be the main ground for reentry policies for imprisoned offenders. However, theories on desistance are diverse, and they disagree about the key factors related to the origin, maintenance, and failures of the desistance process. This research considers three main theories of desistance—control, cognitive transformation, and strain-social support—to explain desistance in a sample of imprisoned men in Spain. The main finding of the research is that strain-social support theory may be of primary importance for understanding desistance because of its capacity to explain processes of change that begin during imprisonment and that continue upon release.

Abstract:

Although the impact of religion on behavior is robust and well-examined in many areas, the role spirituality plays in changes in drug use over time has received relatively little attention. Using a life-course theoretical framework, this relationship is examined through growth curve modeling techniques. Specifically, multilevel analyses are estimated testing within-person relationships between substance use desistance and spirituality. The Pathways to Desistance longitudinal data are analyzed and leading criminological predictors are included, to determine if spirituality has a unique impact on substance use net of these criminological factors, and if these impacts vary across gender. Results from these analyses suggest that the impact of spirituality on desistance varies by gender, with spirituality significantly increasing the odds of desistance from marijuana use for females, but not males.

Abstract:

Despite the wealth of knowledge in desistance research on the meaning of growing discontent with one’s life situation and a perceived necessity of distancing oneself from a negative past, there is a research gap in explaining cases in which individuals mainly change for their own sake. This paper introduces the concept of accumulated uneasiness which adds to the reconstruction of plausible pathways towards desistance from delinquency. Twenty-nine qualitative interviews of young adults were analyzed. The findings suggest that delinquency and other immature behavior might lose their meaning in young adulthood due to internalized values and norms; a process which is intensified by and started due to an increasing feeling of accumulated uneasiness. The findings contribute to the discussion why desistance occurs at certain points in life and how internal and external motivation is interrelated in such processes.

Abstract:

Various studies have pointed to identity change and cognitive transformation as important predictors of desistance. Yet, even persistent offenders have conventional aspirations, which include a job, a house and a family. This article examines the development of conventional aspirations of 23 Dutch (ex-)prisoners using qualitative longitudinal data. Findings show no association between conventional aspirations and desistance as both desisters and persisters expressed conventional goals (‘house, bells and bliss’). A lack of substance and detailed scripts to flesh out the essence of the desired conventional roles meant it could be difficult to turn vague ideals into concrete action pathways. Finally, conventional aspirations and criminal lifestyles were not mutually exclusive; some of the persistent offenders used criminal pathways to fulfil conventional roles.

Abstract:

Social learning theory continues to be one of the most enduring theories of crime. Psychological criminology, on the other hand, tends to explain crime in terms of behavioral propensities. This research is specifically focused on the generality of social learning theory as it varies across a measure of criminal propensity- in this case, psychopathy. Prior studies have tested various theories with the use of measures of propensity, but the theory is rarely social learning, and the measure of propensity has never been psychopathy. The current study examines three components of social learning theory (definitions, differential association, and differential reinforcement) to determine whether or not its influence is dependent on an individual's level of psychopathy. Data used in this research is from the Pathways to Desistance Project, a serious juvenile delinquent sample. Standard ordinary least-squares and Tobit regressions (a method of analyses designed to correct for linear relationships between variables when there is censoring in the dependent variable) are modeled. Results indicate that definitions, differential association, differential reinforcement, and both measures of psychopathy exerted significant main effects on antisocial behavior. In addition, the social learning variables interacted differently across varying levels of psychopathy. Conclusions and policy implications for future social science research are discussed within.

The purpose of this study is to compare the causes and pathways to crime between men and women who were convicted with drug offenses. Analyzing data from in-depth interviews with 8 male and 7 female inmates from two prisons in Taiwan, this study aims to understand the different pathways into crime between men and women. It also explores the possible reasons that lead to their desistance after incarceration. The findings indicate that there are some differences between men’s and women’s pathways into crime. The reasons why they began to use illicit drugs included personal curiosity and the influence of delinquent peers. Some of the male interviewees mentioned that they used illicit drugs at social gatherings, and they were unaware of the harms caused by illicit drugs. A small portion of the female interviewees mentioned that they started using drugs because of the influences of family and working environments. Some of them used illicit drugs to lose weights. Escalation of drug use was mentioned by both of male and female interviewees. Both male and female interviewees attributed drug escalation to curiosity, negative social networks, and the nature of drugs. A small number of men tested drugs for the purpose of selling drugs. Some of them self-medicated for physical injuries. Some women mentioned the influence of their partners. The common reasons for continued use of illicit drugs included physical and psychological dependence, adverse social networks, and self-medication. In comparison with female interviewees, fewer male interviewees had the motives to rehabilitate. There are four main factors that affect the cessation of their drug use behavior: "personal change", "important social relationship", "the role of correction institutes, social welfare organizations, and religion", and "self-actualization." There are some gender differences. Some of the male interviewees mentioned the importance of partners, but not for female interviewees. Among the interviewees, only one woman talked about the influence of religion. Policy implications and suggestions for future research are discussed.

Abstract:

Research has increasingly utilized surveys and intensive interviews to investigate the cognitive processes inherent in offenders’ decision making. Moreover, these methods have often been included in mixed-methods approaches that include life events calendars to enhance recall of past events and thought processes, or they have been included as part of experimental designs to elucidate causal mechanisms. This chapter provides a review of research that investigates offender decision making using samples from the general population of adolescents or young adults as well as samples of adolescents at a higher risk of offending. Survey research utilizing samples of adolescent and young adult offenders, called the Pathways to Desistance study, is also reviewed, along with survey research of adult offenders in specific correctional settings. Finally, recent inductive research that relies on intensive interviews is reviewed.

Abstract:

This chapter describes the context, aims, challenges, and growth of a user involvement programme spanning both prison and community services in the Offender Personality Disorder (OPD) pathway. Involving and empowering high-risk individuals to enhance pathway service provision has the potential to bring significant benefits in terms of social integration, well-being, and desistance from offending, while also requiring careful management of internal and external safety. The chapter describes the particular challenges involved and the support and governance framework that has enabled the user involvement programme to flourish within the London Community Pathway. Successful initiatives are described and service users’ own narrative accounts of their experience of involvement are included throughout. The chapter concludes with a review of the challenges that have emerged as the programme has grown, the learning they have afforded, and ideas for future continuing developments.
