摘要

种族不平等现象在美国司法体系中普遍存在，并成为越来越多研究机构关注的焦点。然而，关于青少年司法环境中的种族差异的研究较少，特别是在青少年被判犯罪后系统“深层次”的决策点。目前的研究调查了2012-2017年进入弗吉尼亚州少年司法系统的青少年在逗留时间、机构不当行为和社区项目安置方面的种族差异。我们发现黑人青年比白人青年有更长的停留时间和更严重的机构不当行为。控制法律和法外因素消除了停留时间的差异，但对于严重的机构不当行为来说，这种差异仍然很重要。近年来，所有种族的青少年都以相似的比例被安置在社区项目中，而不是传统的惩教中心。西班牙裔青年和其他种族的差异很难区分，因为很少有人被录取。

Influence of Race in the Deep End of the Juvenile Justice System

Racial inequalities pervade U.S. justice systems and are the focus of a growing body of research. However, there are fewer studies on racial disparities in juvenile justice settings, particularly on decisions points at the “deep end” of the system after youth have been adjudicated delinquent. The current study examines racial disparities in length of stay, institutional misconduct, and community program placement for youth admitted to the Virginia juvenile justice system from 2012–2017. We find that black youth have significantly longer lengths of stay and more serious institutional misconduct than white youth. Controlling for legal and extralegal factors eliminates the disparity for length of stay, but it remains significant for serious institutional misconduct. In recent years, youth of all races are placed into community programs rather than traditional correctional centers at similar rates. Disparities for Hispanic youth and other races are difficult to distinguish because few are admitted to the system.
