RT Article T1 Multisubstance-Using Probationers and the Odds of Arrest While in the Community JF International journal of offender therapy and comparative criminology VO 64 IS 8 SP 818 OP 839 A1 Medina, Justin C. A2 Zettler, Haley R. LA English YR 2020 UL https://krimdok.uni-tuebingen.de/Record/1698310919 AB Failed drug tests commonly lead to technical violations and revocation hearings for probationers. The current study extends these observations by examining whether multisubstance-using probationers also have increased odds of arrest in the community. This is important as multisubstance-using probationers may present unique public safety challenges to community corrections agencies and require intensive treatment resources and additional monitoring. Using data from a county-level probation cohort (N = 2,257) from 2009 to 2010, a series of logistic regression analyses estimated the effects of multisubstance use on the odds of being arrested for a new offense while in the community. The findings revealed that multisubstance use and the frequency of multisubstance use increased the odds of arrest while on probation when compared with single-substance users. We discuss how agencies may best supervise multisubstance-using probationers and suggest directions for further examination.
