Research Abstract |
In this paper, we considered the effect of job training program at a Kawagoe Juvenile Correctional Facility in Japan on the re-enty ratio within five years after release. We have investigated 1) the sample statistics of relation between the characteristics of inmates and the re-entry ratio, 2) the relation between the characteristcis of inmates and the job training participation by Probit analysis, 3) the relation between the characteristics of inmates and the re-entry ratio by Probit analysis, 4) the effect of job training program on the re-entry ratio by Propensity Score method and 5) for each of the characteristics, the effect of job training program on the re-entry ration. Our main result is that inmates who joined any job training program have a statistically lower re-entry ratio so that the job training programs are effective in preventing future crimes.
