The Cycle Of Deviant Behavior: Investigating Intergenerational Parallelism (longitudinal Research In The Social And Behavioral Sciences: An Interdisciplinary Series)

E-Book Overview

To conduct this study on criminal and antisocial behavior, the authors devoted years to collecting data from a large community sample of first-generation subjects. Data were garnered throughout their early adolescence, twenties, and thirties as well as from these first-generation subjects’ biological children during their own early adolescence. The results of these studies have profound implications for future research and methodology on deviant behavior.
