Mednick, Birgitte; And Others
Journal of Youth and Adolescence, v16 n1 p31-45 Feb 1987
This study investigated the relationship between divorce and young adult male crime, controlling for two factors; socioeconomic status and paternal criminality. The subjects were drawn from the subject pool of a Danish longitudinal study. The initial significant effects of divorce disappeared when the controlling factors were introduced through path analysis. (JAZ)
