Reports on the nationwide institutional and expert surveys (all reports in English)
Each country conducted a national survey among relevant institutions, professions and experts, including researchers, practitioners, and policy makers. The topical focus of the survey was on approaches to prevention and control of youth deviance that have been tried and tested or that appear promising. The conceptual background of the survey was the concept of evidence-based crime prevention (see Eisner, Ribeaud & Bittel, 2006), applying criteria of the Maryland Scale of Scientific Methods (see Farrington, Gottfredson, Sherman & Welsh, 2002) and the Cambridge Quality Checklists (Murray, Farrington & Eisner, 2009).
