Sažetak
Aim was to assess the relationships between delinquency and demographic and family variables, academic performance, war stressors, home/community, school, and media violence exposure, self-image, and psychopathology. This cross-sectional study included 100 delinquent, incarcerated male adolescents and 100 matched schoolchildren from Croatia. This investigation lasted from January 2008 to June 2009, and employed self-report measures about socio-demographic data, questionnaire on children’s stressful and traumatic war experiences, exposure to violence scale, the Offer Self-Image Questionnaire and Youth Self-Report Questionnaire. Logistic regression analysis showed that delinquency in incarcerated adolescents was more likely related to having parents who did not live together (odds ratio [OR] 2.40 ; confidence interval [CI] 1.18-4.90, P= 0.015), being exposed more to violence in the home/community (OR 3.84 ; CI 1.58-9.34, P = 0.003), and having poorer self-image (OR 1.09 ; CI = 1.03-1.16, P < 0.002). Our results indicate an interplay between various factors, which range from individual, familiar to socio-cultural. Preventive and therapeutic interventions in incarcerated delinquents should be specifically targeted towards single parenthood, family factors, trauma oriented interventions, and focused on multiple dimensions of self-concept of adolescents.
