Background: This study explores the predictive capabilities of
sociodemographic characteristics and risk and protective factors for
youth recidivism while comparing two analytical methodologies; logistic
prediction models and qualitative comparative analysis models. Methods:
Information from the judicial fi les of 389 young offenders (14-19.03 years)
were gathered from the Juvenile Court and risk and protective factors
were extracted from the administration of the Youth Level Service/Case
Management Inventory. Recidivism data was also obtained for a follow-up
period of two years for each young person. Results: The results showed
two different profi les of reoffenders. Most were young boys with high risk
scores and low protective factors, but a minority were young foreign girls
with crimes against persons and low protective factors. Conclusions:
Being able to detect the different variables that contribute to recidivism
can help implement prevention programs tailored to the criminogenic
needs of each specifi c profi le. [-]

Introducción: este estudio
tiene como objetivo explorar las capacidades predictivas de las variables
sociodemográfi cas, los factores de riesgo y los de protección en la
reincidencia de menores infractores, comparando dos metodologías
analíticas: modelos de regresión logística y modelos de análisis cualitativos
comparativos. Método: los participantes fueron 389 menores infractores
(14-19,3 años) del Juzgado de Menores, a los cuales se les administró el
Youth Level Service/Case Management Inventory. Se obtuvieron datos
sobre la reincidencia en un período de seguimiento de dos años para
cada participante. Resultados: se encontraron dos perfi les diferentes de
reincidentes, la mayoría eran varones jóvenes con puntuaciones altas en
factores de riesgo y bajas en factores de protección. Por el contrario, se
halló una minoría de jóvenes extranjeras con delitos contra las personas
y escasos factores de protección. Conclusiones: detectar las diferentes
variables que contribuyen a la reincidencia puede ayudar a implementar
programas de prevención adaptados a las necesidades criminógenas de
cada perfi l específi co [-]
