Structured leisure activities as a preventive measure against juvenile delinquency : A literature study (English)
Abstract [sv]

Introduktion: Ungdomskriminalitet är ett folkhälsoproblem med negativ konsekvens för både ungdomarna själva och samhället i stort. Det påverkar hälsa och välbefinnande hos de inblandade, bidrar till ojämlikhet och belastar samhällets resurser. Förebyggande åtgärder, interventioner och främjande av skyddsfaktorer är avgörande för att minska förekomst av ungdomskriminalitet och därmed förbättra folkhälsan. Syfte: Syftet med denna strukturerade litteraturstudie var att identifiera ett antal skyddsfaktorer vilka förekommer inom strukturerade fritidsaktiviteter och undersöka deras potential att förebygga ungdomskriminalitet. Metod: En tematisk analys utfördes på 20 vetenskapliga originalartiklar som erhölls från databaserna PubMed och EBSCO host i en strukturerad litteraturstudie. Resultat: Studien identifierade ett antal skyddsfaktorer inkluderade i strukturerade fritidsaktiviteter vilka bidrar till att förebygga normbrytande beteenden som kan leda till ungdomskriminalitet. Dessa skyddsfaktorer inkluderar personlig utveckling, socialt stöd, meningsfullhet och självkänsla, struktur och ledarskap inom fritidsaktiviteter samt individanpassad aktivitet. Slutsats: Studien visar att strukturerade fritidsaktiviteter inkluderar flera skyddsfaktorer som har potential att förebygga ungdomskriminalitet.

Abstract [en]

Introduction: Juvenile delinquency constitutes a public health concern with detrimental implications for both the young individuals and society collectively. It impacts the well-being and health of those involved, contributes to inequality, and strains societal resources. Preventive measures, interventions, and the promotion of protective factors are crucial to mitigate the occurrence of youth delinquency, thus enhancing public health. Aim: The aim of this structured literature review was to identify a range of protective factors within structured leisure activities and explore their potential in preventing youth delinquency. Method: A thematic analysis was conducted on 20 scholarly original articles retrieved from the databases PubMed and EBSCO host in a structured literature study. Results: The study identified several protective factors inherent to structured leisure activities that contribute to preventing deviant behaviours that may lead to juvenile delinquency. These protective factors encompass personal development, social support, meaningfulness and self-esteem, structure and leadership within leisure activities, and individual adaptation. Conclusion: The study highlights that within structured leisure activities, there are several protective factors that show potential in mitigating juvenile delinquency.
