Stimulus-Seeking Behavior in Three Delinquent Personality Types.
Shostak, David A.; McIntyre, Curtis W.
Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, v46 n3 p582 Jun 1978
Examined stimulus-seeking behavior in delinquent personality types drawn from populations (juvenile delinquents and young adult offenders). Results from a kinesthetic aftereffect task and sensation seeking scale indicate only limited evidence of pathological stimulus seeking by psychopathic delinquent personality type. This may result from incarceration experiences of young offenders. (Author/BEF)
