Abstract
The examination of 16 descriptive characteristics as a means of separating the recidivists from nonrecidivists suggested: (1) age at commitment and age at parole appear significant in potential prediction of recidivism and (2) poor adjustment to general institutional rules appears to have value in predicting recidivism.Keywords
