DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This study examines differences between adolescent offenders in juvenile court, adolescent offenders in adult court, and adult offenders on cognitive tasks measuring the maintenance of internal representations of task relevant context information (i.e., modified Stroop task, Continuous Performance Test, and Lexical Disambiguation task). It is expected that both transferred and non-transferred youthful offenders will exhibit more disturbances in context processing compared to adult offenders. These patterns in context processing will be evident across task domains. It is also hypothesized that context processing will be differentiated from short-term memory for all participant groups. It is expected that disrupted context processing will be associated with lower levels of risk perception, consideration of future consequences, and general sophistication-maturity. Participants will be matched samples of adolescent inmates and adult offenders from an adult correctional facility and youths from a juvenile detention facility. Statistical analyses for each of the proposed hypotheses include repeated measures analysis of variance, planned orthogonal contrasts, correlations, and multiple regression. The implications of the proposed study will be discussed in terms of culpability and juvenile transfers to adult court.

描述（由申请人提供）：本研究研究了青少年法院的青少年罪犯，成人法院的青少年罪犯和成人罪犯的认知任务，以衡量维护任务相关上下文信息的内部表示形式（即修改后的Stroop任务，持续绩效测试，持续的绩效测试以及词汇上的放置任务）。预计与成年罪犯相比，转移和非转让的年轻罪犯都会在上下文处理中表现出更多的骚乱。上下文处理中的这些模式将在任务域中显而易见。还可以假设，上下文处理将与所有参与者组的短期记忆区分开。预计上下文处理中断将与较低的风险感知水平，对未来后果的考虑以及一般成熟的成熟度有关。参与者将与成人惩教所的青少年囚犯和成年罪犯以及来自少年拘留所的年轻人的样本相匹配。针对每个提出的假设的统计分析包括对方差的重复测量分析，计划的正交对比，相关性和多元回归。拟议研究的含义将以罪魁祸首和向成人法院的少年转移来讨论。
