概要 In this article, we study the effectiveness of training school programs relative to probation on recidivism for Japanese juvenile delinquents with differing criminal experiences: early versus late involvement and first-time as opposed to repeat. We measure effectiveness by the times elapsed from release to reincarceration in the Juvenile Classification Homes. We employ a proportional hazards model to examine the relationship between the form of treatment and the elapsed times to re-incarceration. The effect of treatment in training schools is found to be complex. Institutionalization of the late-starting first-time offenders (N = 5,675) and of the early-starting repeat offenders (N = 158) is associated with significantly longer times to re-incarceration. However, for the late-starting repeat offenders (N = 946), we do not find any positive effect of training schools.
