Self-Restraint as a Mediator of Family Influences on Boys' Delinquent Behavior: A Longitudinal Study.
Feldman, S. Shirley; Weinberger, Daniel A.
Child Development, v65 n1 p195-211 Feb 1994
Hypothesized that individual differences in 81 sixth-grade boys' self-restraint would serve as a mediator between family factors in preadolescence and sons' delinquent behavior 4 years later. General family functioning at preadolescence, independent of other scores, predicted boys' level of self-restraint four years later. (MDM)
