According to data from the Federal Bureau of Investigation, from 1991 to 2000, arrests of girls increased more (or decreased less) than arrests of boys for most types of offenses. By 2004, girls accounted for 30 percent of all juvenile arrests. However, questions remain about whether these trends reflect an actual increase in girls' delinquency or changes in societal responses to girls' behavior. To find answers to these questions, the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention convened the Girls Study Group to establish a theoretical and empirical foundation to guide the development, testing, and dissemination of strategies to reduce or prevent girls' involvement in delinquency and violence. The Girls Study Group Series, of which this bulletin is a part, presents the Group's findings. The series examines issues such as patterns of offending among adolescents and how they differ for girls and boys; risk and protective factors associated with delinquency, including gender differences; and the causes and correlates of girls' delinquency.

Over the past decade and a half, girls’ involvement in the juvenile justice system has increased. Yet the topic remains under-studied among criminologists. The Delinquent Girl is a “state-of-the-field” evaluation that identifies and analyzes girls who become delinquent, the kinds of crimes they commit and the reasons they commit them. The distinguished academics and practitioners who contributed to this volume provide an overview of the research on girls’ delinquency, discuss policy implications and point to areas where further research is critically needed.

From 1991 to 2000, arrests of girls increased more than arrests of boys for most offenses. By 2004, girls accounted for 30% of all juvenile arrests. Resilience, the psychological ability to successfully cope with severe stress and negative events, is a widely studied concept that has important implications for the development of delinquency prevention and intervention programs. Scientists still cannot completely explain why some children are resilient to the negative events in their life and others are not. Furthermore, factors associated with resilience may not be the same for both genders. This report examines a select number of factors that research suggests may ¿protect¿ girls who are at risk for becoming delinquent. Illustrations.

Juvenile female offenses have increased sharply and juvenile female offenders generally had more serious and wide-ranging service needs than juvenile male offenders. This report is a review of the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Programs¿ (OJJDP) efforts related to studying and promoting effective girls' delinquency programs (GDP). It addresses the following questions: (1) What efforts has OJJDP made to assess the effectiveness of GDP? (2) To what extent are OJJDP's efforts to assess GDP consistent with generally accepted social science standards and the internal control standard to communicate with external stakeholders? (3) What are the findings from OJJDP's efforts to assess the effectiveness of GDP? Charts and tables.

Turner syndrome (TS) is a relatively common chromosomal disorder affecting approximately 1 in 2000 live female births. Short stature is the most common clinical presentation of the syndrome; it is observed in 80 % to 100 % of the girls with TS. Growth is stunted to a variable degree at different phases of childhood and adolescence in TS. Although there is consensus on treating growth failure as early as possible, there is ongoing research to ameliorate final height in TS girls. The co-existence of primary ovarian failure in girls with TS further complicates the management of short stature. It remains to be determined what is the best age to begin treatment for pubertal induction and/or maintenance of puberty; the best compound, dose, or protocol to induce puberty. TS patients have increased mortality and morbidity due to cardiovascular (CV) complications and multiple risk factors for ischaemic heart disease, including hypertension, insulin resistance and dyslipidaemia. The CV phenotype can be better assessed through identification of surrogate risk markers and the relationship of these markers with TS - associated traits. There are very few comprehensive studies on the dynamics of arterial tree and the associations of these dynamics with influential factors in young TS patients. Deregulated signalling within the GH-IGF1 axis may extend beyond the realm of physical stature in TS, resulting in effects on the CV system and other organ systems. Although GH deficiency is associated with CV risk, and excess of GH is also associated with increased CV risk. Because TS patients receive supraphysiological doses of GH, there may be increased risks for CV complications, although retrospective studies failed to document such an association. There are still other unknown issues in the area of TS and CV issues such as the definitions of “abnormal” aortic diameters, high blood pressure. There is scarce data regarding how we can prevent catastrophic CV events in girls and women with TS. There is a call for prospective studies regarding the pathogenesis, diagnosis and prevention of CV disease in TS.TS patients usually have psychological problems related to self-confidence and self-respect due to the high burden of health-related issues they have to cope with at different stages of life. There remains controversy on how to support them to accept their differences and empower them to take an active role in their care. This e-book intends to provide insight on hot topics of debate in TS. The e-book is subdivided into small sections to describe the content of the articles such as growth, puberty, cardiovascular issues, metabolic issues, autoimmunity, cognitive and psychosocial issues to facilitate reading. We hope it will serve as a reference tool for clinicians and researchers who are involved in the diagnosis and management of females with TS.

State juvenile justice systems face problems when it comes to juvenile delinq. issues such as re-entry -- when offenders return home from incarceration -- and substance abuse (SA). This report reviewed juvenile re-entry and SA program research and efforts by the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinq. Prevention (OJJDP) to provide info. on effective programs (i.e., whether a program achieves its intended goal) and cost-beneficial programs (i.e., whether the benefits of programs exceeded their costs). This report addresses: (1) expert opinion on these types of re-entry and SA programs; (2) the extent to which OJJDP assesses its efforts to disseminate info. on effective programs; and (3) OJJDP's plans to accomplish its research and evaluation goals.
