Are juvenile defendants who are released pending adjudication processed more slowly than those who are detained? The JDCC data set records whether a juvenile was released and the number of months it took for that juvenile’s case to reach a disposition. The sample will be narrowed to black female youth. Released juveniles (Sample 1) had a mean of 4.30 months to disposition (s = 3.86, N = 123) and detained juveniles (Sample 2) had a mean of 3.57 (s = 4.20, N = 64). Using an alpha level of .01, test the hypothesis that released juveniles’ mean time-to-adjudication is significantly greater than detained juveniles’ mean. Assume equal population variances. Use all five steps.
