TY - JOUR PY - 2001// TI - Alcohol and Violence Among Youth in Boot Camps for Non-Violent Offenders JO - Alcoholism treatment quarterly A1 - Benda, Brent B. A1 - Corwyn, Robert Flynn A1 - Rodell, Daniel E. SP - 37 EP - 56 VL - 19 IS - 1 N2 - The study is of a boot camp for non-violent, first-admissions to the Department of Correction in Arkansas, and self-report data indicated that 69 percent of those inmates (N = 600) had 3 or more violent offenses prior to entering boot camp. Discriminant analysis indicated, by order of entry (from highest to lowest discrimination), that carrying a weapon, peer association with persons who engage in violence, more alcohol consumption, attempted suicide, younger age, use of amphetamines, persons of color, feelings of alienation, low self-esteem, and unprotected sex are related to violence. The intervention implications of these findings are discussed. (Abstract Adapted from Source: Alcoholism Treatment Quarterly, 2001.
