ABSTRACT
The integrated maturation theory describes psychosocial, adult role, and identity maturation as interrelated domains associated with criminal desistance, but to this point these domains have not been examined simultaneously, which raises questions about the relative importance of each domain to desistance. The aims of the current study were to unravel the development of maturation by examining interrelationships across components of psychosocial, adult role, and identity domains while also clarifying which components were related to desistance. Data were used from the Pathways to Desistance Study on male (n= 1170) and female (n= 184) youth with a history of offending. Participants were an average age of 14.04 (SD= 1.14) at baseline and were followed for seven years. Network modeling examined, from between-subjects and within-individual perspectives, (a) relationships among repeated measures of psychosocial, adult role, and identity maturation components and (b) relationships between these components and offending. Based on centrality indexes from the between-subjects network, responsibility (psychosocial domain), work orientation (adult role domain), and self identity (identity domain) were most important to the development of maturation. After accounting for interrelationships among maturation components, measures of consideration of others (adult role domain) and moral disengagement (identity domain) related to both lower levels of offending and within-individual declines in offending. The findings supported the integrated maturation theory's description of maturation as comprised of a wide range of interrelated components across different domains that are important to desistance.

Estudo sobre o conceito e a teoria do espaço potencial de D. W. Winnicott. Realizou-se uma leitura exaustiva da obra desse autor e de estudiosos dela. Não há consenso entre estes sobre o momento em que o espaço potencial se constitui na linha do amadurecimento do indivíduo e acerca das expressões utilizadas para nomeá-lo. Para Winnicott, o espaço potencial é o locus de um processo que acontece no indivíduo, iniciando-se em uma área intermediária, com seus fenômenos e objetos transicionais, e evolui para o brincar, para o brincar compartilhado e para as experiências culturais.

It is a study on the concept and theory of potential space by D. W. Winnicott. An exhaustive reading of the author's work and her scholars was carried out. There is no consensus among them on the moment when potential space constitutes in the line of maturation of the individual and on the expressions used to name it. For Winnicott, potential space is the locus of a process that happens in the individual, which begins in an intermediate area with its phenomena and transitional objects, and evolves to playing, shared playing and cultural experiences.
