Results
The Reincidências project delivered the following results:
1) The creation of a technical and methodological support device that systematically collects data about young offenders’ recidivism within the DGRS;
2) The promotion of appropriate conditions in order to decrease prevalence rates of recidivism (persistence, diversity, severity and incidence), associating static factors and dynamic risk factors associated with recidivism (recidivist versus non-recidivist youth profiles);
3) The promotion of appropriate conditions to evaluate the effectiveness of youth probation service intervention (impact of court measures on delinquent behaviour).
