Correlates aspects of limited antisocial behavior in adolescence and antisocial persistent behaviour
Abstract
Antisocial behavior can be categorized as persistent (when started in childhood and continues during adulthood) and transient (when they are restricted to development stage, in general, adolescence). The main purpose of this study was to review studies that present empirical evidence supporting the typological model of Moffitt (1993), which proposes an analysis that make it possible to differentiate between transient and persistent antisocial behavior. The search performed using PsycINFO database identified 162 studies related to theme, but only 14 were in this review. The findings suggest that transient antisocial behavior in adolescence may be a result of lack of maturity, especially among peers, and of a perceived difference between body growth and psychological and social maturity. On the other hand, persistent antisocial behavior has its origin in childhood due to the multiple variations that can contribute to the development of these behaviors (family violence, school problems, neurological etc.). It is believed that the earlier the persistent antisocial behaviors are identified the bigger are the chances to obtain successful results in the actions and therapeutic interventions.Downloads
