title: Predictive validity of the Young Offender Level of Service Inventory for criminal recidivism of male and female young offenders.
abstract: 164 male and female young offenders were given the Young Offender Level of Service Inventory. Scores from this 76-item risk assessment were used to produce a matched sample of 82 female and 82 male young offenders. Sex did not influence the 1-yr, criminal recidivism rate, a result consistent with other findings.
