Case Classification for Juvenile Corrections: Evaluation of the Youth Level of Service Inventory in Ohio, 1998-2001
This study assessed the effectiveness of the Youth Level of
Service/Case Management Inventory (YLS/CMI or Y-LSI). The Y-LSI is an
instrument for classifying juvenile offender risk of recidivism and
for identifying areas of treatment need that, if addressed, will
result in a reduced risk of recidivism. Three juvenile correction
agencies in Ohio that used the Y-LSI for case classification were the
settings for this study. Data in Part 1 were collected on 1,679 youths
received in the three correctional settings between July 1, 1998, and
June 30, 1999. Youths' files were reviewed to complete the data
collection instruments. These files contained demographic and
background information, Y-LSI assessments, and information relating to
treatment and service referrals, completion of programming, and
supervision outcome. One year after the initial Y-LSI assessments,
reassessment data were collected on youths. Reassessments were
completed on youth at the time of program completion or one year after
the initial assessment. Supervision outcome data were collected two
years after the initial data collection. Data in Part 2 were collected
in 2001 through a survey of 196 agency staff members on their
reactions to the use of the Y-LSI as a classification instrument.
