Researchers are able to examine changes in trends over time, through the examination of responses to repeatedly-asked questions, among the same respondents, over several cycles of longitudinal data. Working with these repeatedly-measured responses can often be challenging. This article examines trends in youth's volunteering activities, using data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Children and Youth, to highlight several issues that researchers should consider when working with repeated measures.

Results are presented for all Inuit children. Some results are also presented for those in Inuit Nunaat (meaning Inuit homeland): Nunatsiavut in northern Labrador, the territory of Nunavut, Nunavik in northern Quebec, and the Inuvialuit Settlement Region in the Northwest Territories.

The federal government and the provincial and territorial governments share the administration of correctional services in Canada, which include custody (sentenced custody, remand and other temporary detention) and community-based sentences (probation, conditional sentences) as well as statutory release and parole supervision. Correctional services agencies at both levels work toward the same goal, that is, the protection of society as well as the rehabilitation of offenders and their safe reintegration into communities as productive members.This Juristat reports on data from the Adult Correctional Services Survey for the 2004/2005 fiscal year, and shows trends in these data from 1995/1996. It examines average counts of adults who have been incarcerated, who were under community supervision on probation, serving a conditional sentence or on conditional release (parole and statutory release). The number of admissions to these programs, the offences leading to the admission, the duration of the incarceration or probation, as well as some offender characteristics, such as age, sex and Aboriginal identity are also described. Furthermore, the cost of correctional services in 2004/2005, broken down by type of activity and level of government is examined. The average daily inmate costs from 1995/1996 to 2004/2005, as well as the number of correctional institutions in Canada in 2004/2005 are reported.

This Juristat provides an overview of young persons under correctional services and is the first release of the Youth Custody and Community Services Survey (YCCS) since the implementation of the Youth Criminal Justice Act (YCJA), which came into effect on April 1, 2003. Correctional services include pre-trial detention (remand), secure and open custody, and probation, as well as the new YCJA sentencing options, including, deferred custody and supervision, community portion of a custody sentence (CPCS), and the intensive support and supervision program (ISSP).

An examination of trends provides an overview of caseload in youth corrections, as well as incarceration and probation rates, and 2) The Youth Custody and Community Services survey collects data on youth admissions to and releases from custody and community services. These data are examined based on key case characteristics such as age, sex, Aboriginal/non-Aboriginal identity, and most serious offence and length of time served. Data are analyzed at the provincial/territorial as well as national levels.

Release date: 2004-12-09 - Articles and reports: 11-522-X20020016720Geography: CanadaDescription:
The objective of this study was to analyse the influence of community on individual health. The new Canadian Community Health Survey (CCHS) was used to derive individual health variables for Canadian residents aged 18 or older while community-level data were obtained from the Canadian 1996 Census of Population. Weighted logistic multilevel models and principal component analysis were used to analyse these data. After controlling for individual variables, there was little variation between communities. However, the influence of the community was more important for people with low family income than those with higher income.
