摘要

本研究採官方次級資料分析法，以2011年遭警查獲之1,175名涉毒少年為研究對象，其中具有學生身分為530名（45.1%），未具學生身分者為645名（54.9%），並針對上述涉毒少年的中輟經驗、初犯年齡、犯罪次數及再犯經驗進行量化分析，研究發現如下：（一）在1,175名涉毒少年中，約有7成以上的犯行集中於3成8的犯罪者身上，且少數的中輟生占了大部分的中輟次數，若能掌握核心犯罪人及中輟生，必能減少大量的犯罪及中輟次數的發生。（二）上述未成年涉毒少年，其「是否具有學生身分」在犯罪次數及再犯經驗上具有明顯的差異，選擇未繼續升學的涉毒少年，不僅「犯罪次數」顯著高於在學學生；其「再犯經驗」亦高於曾接受春暉輔導的學生，顯示學校的監控及輔導機制，對涉毒少年而言為重要的保護因子，對於降低涉毒少年再犯具有一定效果。（三）涉毒少年的中輟率比全國學生平均中輟率高出許多，有中輟經驗之涉毒少年，其初犯年齡較早，犯罪次數較多，顯見「無中輟經驗」與「具學生身分」者具有較佳的抑制犯罪效果，若涉毒少年願意返回校園求學，較能阻擋外在環境的不良影響，減少毒品誘惑，降低犯罪發生。最後，本研究針對分析結果提出相關建議，以供實務機關建構有效犯罪預防策略之參考。

The present study adopts secondary data analysis to analyze official data. The study participants in this study are 1,175 teens caught committing drug crimes in 2011. Five hundred and thirty offenders (45.1%) have student identity. The remaining 645 offenders (54.9) do not have student identity. The quantitative analysis is conducted with variables, including dropout experience, age of onset, number of crimes committed, and crime types of these juvenile drug offenders. The study indicates that: (1) among 1,175 juvenile drug offenders, 38% accounts for more than 70% of crime. Few dropouts occupy a large number of dropouts. Controlling core offenders and dropouts could reduce the occurrence of large crimes and dropouts; (2) Among these participants, the variable ＂whether the offender has student identity or not＂ is a significant difference in the number of crime and recidivism experiences. Juvenile drug offenders who choose not to continue higher education have a higher number of crimes and higher recidivism experience than a juvenile who receives ＂Chun-Hui (Youth-Support) Project＂ counseling. That shows controlling and counseling mechanisms of schools are important protectors for juvenile drug; offenders. It is also effective in lower the recidivism number of juvenile drug offenders. (3) The dropout rate for juvenile drug offenders is higher than the average dropout rate for national students. The age of onset for the juvenile drug offenders with dropout experience is earlier and more crimes committed. It is obvious that ＂no dropout experience＂ and ＂with student identity＂ have better inhibiting effects. It is better to block adverse effects from the external environment, reduce the seduction of drugs, and lower the number of crimes committed if the juvenile drug offenders are willing to return to school. At last, the study provides suggestions based on the analyses for practical authorities to develop crime prevention strategies.
