Abstract

This study examines the extent and time course of repeat missing incidents involving children. Using data from one UK police force (n = 2,251), we find (1) that the majority (65%) of missing incidents are repeats, (2) that a small group of repeatedly missing children (n = 43; 6%) account for a sizable proportion of all missing incidents (n=739, 33%) and (3) that the likelihood of a child going missing repeatedly is elevated in the weeks immediately following a previous missing incident. The implications of our findings for future research and for the prevention of missing incidents are discussed.

关于涉及儿童的重复失踪事件的范围和时间进程的进一步证据:一份研究说明
本研究考察了涉及儿童的重复失踪事件的程度和时间过程。使用来自一个英国警察部队(n = 2251)的数据,我们发现(1)大多数(65%)失踪事件是重复的,(2)一小群反复失踪的儿童(n = 43;(6%)占所有失踪事件的相当大比例(n= 739,33 %)和(3)在前一次失踪事件发生后的几周内,儿童反复失踪的可能性增加。讨论了我们的研究结果对未来研究和预防失踪事件的影响。
