Demographic, offense, and mental health information was gathered from 100 youth offenders, 50 female and 50 male, committed to a state juvenile justice agency. Case file information was used to score the Psychopathy Checklist: Youth Version and additional archival data was used to code offense and mental health variables. Female and male juvenile offenders differed on PCL:YV scores as a function of proactive violence and mental health needs. The results are discussed in terms of the assessment of psychopathy in adolescence, the differential manifestation of psychopathic traits in adolescent females, and relevant treatment implications.

Michael R. Kozlowski http://docs.rwu.edu/fcas_fp/18 http://docs.rwu.edu/fcas_fp/18 Tue, 22 Sep 2009 06:27:33 PDT After a workshop on student outcomes for the first-year writing course, the 28 faculty participants discussed the implications of "Development" for critical thinking. This case study of one college's participatory exercise in improving writing found that although the RWU faculty lacked consensus on the definition, simply discussing topic of "Development" may have had the unintended effect of fewer A grades in the following semester. Unfortunately, the percentage of A grades ascended in the subsequent semesters to suggest that without reinforcement, faculty returned to grade inflation. Glenna M.
