A talk by Raymond Corrado, Professor Emeritus, Simon Fraser University.

For boys and men, pathways to serious and violent offending are frequently associated with externalizing behaviors, peer influences, and early exposure to aggressive role models. In contrast, for girls and women, these pathways typically involved more internalizing behaviors rooted in childhood victimization (i.e., physical, sexual, or neglect) and intimate partner or familial relationship dynamics Longitudinal studies have identified critical periods where interventions can be particularly effective in altering life trajectories. Early interventions focused on gender specific pathways also can have moderating impacts. The Cracow Instrument (CI) is a comprehensive developmentally based risk/needs management tool that assists service providers  in devising client case planning.

Professor Amanda Champion is the co-principal investigator of the Cracow Instrument, and has collaborated with professor Corrado in this study.
