Answer:

The correct answer is DESISTANCE

Step-by-step explanation:

This is defined as the end of offending or other antisocial behavior. The definition is still ambiguous, some agreed with the previous definition and others think that the re-offending events can happen one more time. Because of this there were a lot of discussion about how to measure desistance, if reassure or make it happen is good or not for the justice policy, some researchers think that this is important to succeed, etc.
