THE DYNAMICS OF DEVIANT BEHAVIOR-A NATIONAL SURVEY

全国青年调查(NYS)是一项关于青少年越轨行为的研究 具有代表性的国家青年小组(N=1725)，年龄11-17岁， 他于1977年首次接受采访。这个小组每年都会被重新采访四次 随后的几年(1976-1981年)和1984年。在最后一次采访中 (第六波)小组中的年轻人年龄在18-24岁之间。此应用程序用于 延长纽约时间，以便从专家小组收集第七波数据 到1987年，小组成员的年龄将达到21至27岁。总的目标 这一最新的数据收集浪潮是为了记录心理社会 发展变化和行为角色转换 成人早期年龄(即21-27岁)，并检查 这些变化与社会变革的始动、延续和发展的关系 终止个人参与各种形式的越轨或 问题行为。 提议的延长《纽约时报》有三个具体目标： 1)测试社会心理模型的一般性，该模型提供了一个 对青春期异常行为的较好解释 通过考察它对早期这种行为的解释能力， 成人期；2)描述的动态和发展进程 整个11-27岁年龄范围内的异常/问题行为模式 特别关注启动、连续性和终止方面的变化 成人早期的比率；以及3)检查两者之间的关系 越轨倾向、越轨行为和社区使用之间的关系 心理健康服务。 该理论模型综合了传统的应激、社会控制和 社会学习视角。这一解释主要集中在内部 控制(例如，个人价值观、信仰、感知的规范和道德 承诺)和外部控制(例如，参与和依附 向那些提供社会援助的传统和离经叛道的人 为常规和非常规行为建模)。异常/问题的类型 被检查的行为是：1)暴力反社会行为，例如，简单和 严重侵犯、性侵犯和家庭暴力；2)非暴力 但是包括盗窃、非法服务(例如， 卖淫、贩卖毒品)扰乱公共秩序，破坏财产； 3)酒精和非法药物使用，重点关注功能障碍/问题 相关物质使用；4)性行为异常。

The National Youth Survey (NYS) is a study of deviant behavior in a representative national youth panel (N=1725) which was aged 11-17 when first interviewed in 1977. This panel was reinterviewed annually for four subsequent years (1976-1981) and again in 1984. At the last interview (wave 6) youth in the panel were aged 18-24. This application is for an extension of the NYS for a seventh wave of data collection from the panel in 1987 when the panel members will be aged 21-27. The general objective of this newest data collection wave is to document the psychosocial developmental changes and behavioral role transitions occurring during the early adult years (i.e., the 21-27 age range) and to examine the relationship between these changes and the initiation, continuity and termination of individual's involvement in various forms of deviant or problem behavior. There are three specific objectives of the proposed extension of the NYS: 1) to test the generality of a social psychological model which provided a relatively good explanation for deviant behavior during the adolescent years by examining its power to explain such behavior during the early adult years; 2) to describe the dynamics and developmental progression of deviant/problem behavior patterns over the entire 11-27 age range with a particular focus upon changes in initiation, continuity and termination rates during the early adult years; and 3) to examine the relationship between deviance proneness, deviant behavior, and the use of community mental health services. The theoretical model integrates traditional strain, social control and social learning perspectives. This explanation focuses upon internal controls (e.g., personal values, beliefs, perceived norms, and moral commitments) and external controls (e.g., involvement with and attachment to conventional and deviant others who provide social reinforcements and modeling for conventional and deviant acts). Types of deviant/problem behavior examined are: 1) violent antisocial behaviors e.g, simple and aggravated assault, sexual assault, and domestic violence; 2) non-violent but illegal behaviors which include theft, illegal services (e.g., prostitution and selling drugs) public disorder, and property destruction; 3) alcohol and illicit drug use with a focus upon dysfunctional/problem related substance use; and 4) deviant sexual activity.
