Criminal justice researchers and scholars have consistently analyzed the factors that may precede offending behaviors. By understanding the factors that predict criminal behavior, the criminal justice system has the ability to intervene to address and ultimately prevent criminal behavior. The purpose of the current study is to examine the statistical relationship between childhood physical and sexual abuse and juvenile criminal involvement in violent, property, or substance-related crime. The current research effort relied on secondary data to substantiate the current hypothesis. The initial study collected data over several years and utilized self-report questionnaires that were administered to participants based on a sample acquired through referrals to the Department of Children and Families. The current study employed bivariate correlations to test the statistical correlation between the independent variables and the dependent variables. The analysis produced a statistically significant relationship between physical abuse and all three crime types but no significant relationship between sexual abuse across all three crime types. Based on the results, simple linear regressions were utilized to determine the degree in which physical abuse is predictive of juvenile criminal involvement across all three crime types. The results yielded low predictive value indicating that only a small amount of variability in criminal involvement can be attributed to physical abuse experienced in childhood. Based on this study, it is clear that developments in criminal justice programs and policies should be based on the exploration of other factors that may result in juvenile criminal offending.
