摘要：This study advances knowledge of developmental patterms in poverty and delinquency;data was obtained from waves 1-5 (2003-2007) of the Korea Youth Panel Survey. Semi-parametric group-based modeling (SGM) identified 4 trijectories of poverty from age 13 to 17 : non-poor,poverty increasing, low-level continuous poverty and chronic poverty groups and five developmental trajectories of delingquency : non offending,late onset,low-level continuous,desisting,and chronic groups. A joint trajectory method predicted patterms of delinquency conditional on poverty trajectories. Chronic and low-level continuous poverty groups were more likely than others to follow chronic trajectories of delinquency;the non-poor group was more likely to be non-offending. Implications of this study for youth welfare were discussed to reduce risk for delinquency.
