Delincuencia juvenil, delincuencia especializada, delincuencia versátil, delincuencia autoinformada, perfiles de delincuentes.Abstract
Este artículo presenta los resultados de una investigación que ha pretendido probar empíricamente diferentes teorías de la
delincuencia juvenil sometiéndolas a los datos obtenidos en una encuesta de delincuencia autoinformada aplicada en las
escuelas suizas. (ISRD-2) Los resultados han permitido distinguir los perfiles de dos tipos de delincuentes: los delincuentes especializados y los delincuentes versátiles. La investigación ha estado guiada por la siguiente pregunta: ¿Los delincuentes especializados y los delincuentes versátiles presentan perfiles diferentes a la luz de las diferentes teorías que explican la delincuencia juvenil? los resultados describen las diferencias y similitudes que involucran a los dos grupos de delincuentes
juveniles y presentan el perfil respectivo de cada uno de ellos.
