对反社会行为和犯罪行为稳定性的研究进行了回顾,结果表明,最初表现出高反社会行为率的儿童比最初表现出较低反社会行为率的儿童更有可能坚持这种行为。有证据表明,与非慢性或非犯罪个体相比,慢性犯罪者往往是在一种以上的环境中反社会的儿童,他们表现出更多种类的反社会行为,并且表现出此类行为的早期发生。一旦形成高水平的反社会行为,青少年往往会维持这种水平,而不是恢复到较低水平的反社会行为。研究表明,更多的儿童会陷入较高水平的反社会行为,而不是恢复到较低水平。反社会行为模式在青春期前和青春期往往会发生变化:在 6 岁至 16 岁之间,从事公开反社会行为(打架、不服从等)的青少年人数下降,而在这一时期,从事隐蔽反社会行为(盗窃、酗酒和吸毒等)的青少年人数有所增加。讨论了对慢性罪犯的早期识别的影响。
Studies on the stability of antisocial and delinquent behavior are reviewed, showing that children who initially display high rates of antisocial behavior are more likely to persist in this behavior than children who initially show lower rates of antisocial behavior. Evidence is presented that chronic delinquents, compared with nonchronic or nondelinquent individuals, tend to have been children who were antisocial in more than 1 setting, who displayed a higher variety of antisocial behaviors, and who showed an early onset of such behaviors. Once high levels of antisocial behavior have been established, youths tend to maintain such levels rather than to revert to lower levels of antisocial behavior. Studies suggest that more children drift into higher levels of antisocial behavior than revert to a lower level. Patterns of antisocial behavior tend to change during preadolescence and adolescence: the number of youths who engage in overt antisocial acts (fighting, disobedience, etc.) declines between ages 6 and 16, whereas in that period the number of youths who engage in covert antisocial acts (theft, alcohol and drug use, etc.) increases. Implications are discussed for the early identification of chronic offenders.
