OJJDP has just published a good resource document, Causes and Correlates of Girls’ Delinquency, which provides an overview of, and brings the reader up to date on, the research unique to girls’ involvement in delinquent behavior. The research is categorized in eight groups, including Biological and Individaul Factors, Family Influences, the Impact of Peers, and Neighborhood Effects. If you’ve been able to keep up with all the literature on this issue, you may not find anything new – but you will find it in one place with references for further study.
