This study explores the dynamics of crime and substance abuse within a population by developing a novel mathematical model that integrates social interactions, rehabilitation efforts, and relapse probabilities. The model introduces a critical metric, the control reproduction number , to quantify the invasion threshold for these behaviors. The findings reveal that the crime/substance-free equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable when . At the same time, entrenched equilibria become stable where . Additionally, the model predicts the potential for a co-existent equilibrium where crime/substance abuse and a free state can coexist if all reproduction numbers exceed unity. Sensitivity analysis identifies key factors influencing , including behavioral transmission, internal progression rates, intervention efficacy, and recovery/relapse probabilities. Numerical simulations validate theoretical predictions regarding the stability of different equilibria, highlighting the critical importance of interventions targeting transmission reduction and rehabilitation efficiency. The research underscores the significance of understanding invasion dynamics for the coexistence of behaviors. It demonstrates the utility of mathematical modeling in elucidating the spread of social phenomena and informing effective control strategies.

Purpose This paper aims to investigate the moderated-mediation roles of career crafting as well as leader-member exchange (LMX) between career decision self-efficacy and psychological empowerment among ex-offenders in Ghana. Design/methodology/approach A purposive sampling technique was used in selecting of 412 ex-offenders at various religious rehabilitation units in Ghana. A multiple regression analysis was conducted to investigate the hypothesized paths. Findings The findings show that LMX moderates the mediated link between career crafting and psychological empowerment. Research limitations/implications Guided by the positivist paradigm deployed in the study, some methodological limitations such as the inability to provide an in-depth explanation of cause-and-effect relationships are worth noting for future studies to explore. Originality/value To the best of the authors’ knowledge, the empirical work is unique, as it is the first to extend the scope of career development through the perspective of recidivism in an emerging economy.
