While there has been a recognition of “special problems”; with waivers of rights by juvenile respondents, the courts have generally not presumed juveniles to be incompetent to waive rights. Psychological research suggests that many juveniles do not comprehend the applications of their rights and the advocacy role of their attorneys. The legal and psychological literatures are discussed in terms of their implications for forensic evaluations of juveniles. |
