Troubled Children Grown-Up: Antisocial Behavior in Young Adult Criminals.
Kemp, Dawn; Center, David
Education and Treatment of Children, v23 n3 p223-38 Aug 2000
This study evaluated Eysenck's hypothesis that an antisocial temperament in interaction with socialization, intelligence, and achievement puts an individual at risk of antisocial behavior. Recently paroled young adult males (N=107) were assessed for temperament, socialization, and juvenile behavior. The sample differed in predicted directions from test norms in both temperament and socialization, thus supporting Eysenck's antisocial behavior hypothesis. (Contains references.) (Author/DB)
