Psychosocial Predictors of Emerging Adults' Risk and Reckless Behaviors.
Bradley, Graham; Wildman, Karen
Journal of Youth and Adolescence, v31 n4 p253-65 Aug 2002
Studied risk and reckless behavior in 375 emerging adults using self-report measures and a cross-sectional design. Risk behaviors were found to be reliably predicted by sensation seeking, but not by antisocial peer pressure, while the reverse pattern was more true in relation to "reckless" behaviors. (SLD)
