Antisocial Male Youth: Considering Patterns of Vulnerability and Problem Behavior.
Wekerle, Chris; Skilling, Tracey; Adlaf, Edward; Paglia, Angela; Leung, Eman
This document contains presentation slides from a study on antisocial male youth. The study sought to identify an antisocial taxon, and to demonstrate that taxon membership would possess external validity and predict antisocial behavior correlates (low school achievement, poor family relations, and internalizing problems). The results revealed 9 taxometric indicators, based on DSM-IV Conduct Disorder indicators. The results are discussed in terms of contextual correlates, school engagement, individual achievement, peer groups, non-medical drug use, and mental health. (GCP)
