Sažetak
This paper addresses a determination of differences between examinees, according to areas of risks and total risk of the assessment
instrument Youth Level of Service/Case Management Inventory (YLS/CMI, Hoge, Andrews, Leschield, 2002), within youth offenders,
placed according to the Act on Juvenile Court and those placed in institution according to the Family Act and the Social Welfare Act.
The study has been carried out on a sample of 418 examinees from 14 welfare and treatment institutions for children with behavior
disorders in the Republic of Croatia. Through analysis of variance and discriminatory analysis statistically signifi cant differences on
risk scores have been identifi ed between examinees with social welfare and family measures and those with juvenile court measure.
Youth with juvenile court measures have been estimated with higher scores concerning risk factors. This paper establishes differences
between these two groups of examinees relating areas of risk assessed by the instrument used in the research. Gained results could be
a good foundation for the differentiation of the treatment based on the assessment of specifi c risks and needs of youth-at-risk.
