abstract="OBJECTIVES: Drawing on labeling and routine activities perspectives, this study investigates whether within-individual change in the school dropout status is associated with the risk of subsequent offending and arrest among serious adolescent offenders.   Methods: Longitudinal panel data and a modified version of conventional random-effects models are used as a potential outcome model of causality to directly compare the outcomes before and after the change in the school dropout status.   Results: School dropout significantly increases the likelihood of rearrest, but there is no statistically discernable impact of dropping out of school on self-reported reoffending.   Conclusions: The current study adds insights into the school dropout literature by exploring the role of school dropout as one of the contingencies of &quot;differential social reaction&quot; or &quot;secondary sanctioning&quot; processes in which arrest leads to a greater risk of subsequent arrest.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
