العود إلى الانحراف عند الأحداث الجانحين في المجتمع الأردني

Abstract EN

The study aims to recognize the determinants of the return of the delinquent juveniles in the Jordanian society to deviation.

The study was applied to an intentional sample of sixty-seven male juveniles from homes of education and rehabilitation in the cities of Amman, Irbid and Rosaifah.

the results reveal that the reasons of the return to deviation may include : bad company, idleness, hanging out in streets, truancy, the use of tough measures by parents in their transactions with juveniles and the absence of the guardian from home.

the homes of education and rehabilitation in jordan have played a significant role in limiting the return to deviation through what they produce of vocational, educational, religious, controlling, cultural, sport, recreational and health programs for the juveniles.

the pressures of the social stigma also played a great role in the return of the delinquent juvenile to deviation; this is due to the following : going along with bad company, spending free time uselessly, the treatment of the family as an unrespected or invaluable person, naming him as a deviated person by others, and the general look of the community as an unwanted person.

eventually, the result reveals that there aren't any differences of statistical signs between the return to deviation and all other variables mentioned in this study, except the variable of the delinquent juvenile's guardian.
