“…Stams et al (2008) showed that stronger Victim-based orientation is associated with less norm-trespassing behavior in non-delinquent adolescents and more prosocial behavior in juvenile delinquents. In a study by Wissink et al (2014), both Punishment-based and Victim-based moral orientation of adolescent students proved to be related to prosocial and antisocial behaviors (e.g., vandalism and delinquent behavior) in and outside school. The meta-analysis by Stams et al (2006) showed that juvenile delinquents have a lower stage of moral judgment, which is lowest in juvenile delinquents with psychopathic traits and incarcerated juvenile delinquents.…”

This study examines an emotion-based theory of the conscience, which provides forensic practitioners tools for assessing the state of the conscience. It is operationalized as an emotion-regulating function, making use of empathy, self-conscious emotions, such as shame, pride or guilt, and moral judgment. This was put to test in a questionnaire survey with 59 delinquent and 275 non-delinquent juveniles. As was hypothesized, the functioning of the conscience of these groups differed, with offenders having lower levels of some aspects of empathic capacity, being less prone to experiencing shame and guilt, being more prone to experiencing pride, and being more punishment oriented than victim oriented. The research confirmed that operationalization of the conscience in terms of empathy, self-conscious emotions, and moral orientation is feasible.

“…Sustainability and sustainable development psychology suggest that enhancement of the strengths of the organization members is the best way to demonstrate oneís affiliation with the organization, to identify with it and participate in changes. Wissink et al (2014) speak about successful identification of children at school, feeling of security, in line with the roles of the child as an active holder of rights entrenched in the Convention.…”

While many studies explain the contributions of economics and environmental protection to social sustainability, and discuss how to achieve sustainable development (SD) through education, less is known about change processes in order to ensure the sustainable development at school. The authors emphasize that as active members of the school community, students should get involved in the school transformation processes. However, is a contemporary school ready for this? The study aims at answering the following questions: How are students as active participants of educational relationship involved in the change processes and how should their involvement be managed seeking sustainability by examining the education institution located in Lithuania? The findings demonstrate that the process of the student involvement in the school transformation process has been explored applying the qualitative approach strategies (integrated theoretical model for change management and case study) from two points of view: theoretical (by analyzing the documents governing the school transformation process) and practical (by analyzing the reflections of the school principal’s in-depth interview concerning the student involvement in school transformation processes).

“…While this increased the comparability between the groups, it might have suppressed the estimated intervention effect due to transference (Shadish, Cook, & Campbell, 2002). Although the comparison group did not participate in AJB, it cannot be ruled out that they indirectly benefitted from the intervention through improved school climate and more positive peer interactions (Dishion & Tipsord, 2011;Wissink et al, 2014). Over the course of T0-T2, the intervention group showed significant improvements on conduct problems Finally, no exclusion criteria were formulated, which means that half of the youth in the comparison group also participated in afterschool sports activities.…”

Despite the wide implementation of sport-based crime prevention programs, there is a lack of empirical knowledge on the effectiveness of these interventions. This study evaluated a Dutch sport-based program in N = 368 youth at risk for juvenile delinquency. Intervention effects were tested in a quasi-experimental study, comparing the intervention group with a comparison group using multiple sources of information. The study was conducted under conditions that resemble real-life implementation, thereby enhancing the relevance of this contribution to practitioners. The primary outcome was juvenile delinquency, measured by official police data. The secondary outcomes were risk and protective factors for delinquency, assessed with self-and teacher reports. A significant effect was found on one delinquency measure. The intervention group consisted of fewer youth with police registrations as a suspect than the comparison group (d = −0.34). We did not find an intervention effect on the number of registrations as a suspect in each group. In addition, no significant intervention effects were found on the secondary outcomes. Implications for theory and practice concerning the use of sport-based crime prevention programs are discussed.
