Abstract

This study was conducted at Lincoln Hall, a private agency charged with the care of adolescent boys judged by the Juvenile Court to be delinquent. The purpose of the study was to gather information relating to the school adjustment of boys after they were discharged from Lincoln Hall. The study was limited to those boys who were committed to Lincoln Hall because of truancy alone or because truancy was a charge in addition to other offenses.
