Description
In this comprehensive examination of antisocial behavior, the authors delve into the perplexing gender disparities in conduct disorder, delinquency, and violence. Through the lens of the Dunedin Longitudinal Study, they offer a detailed analysis of how developmental, social, and environmental factors interplay to shape these behaviors across genders. By presenting robust data and thought-provoking insights, they challenge preconceived notions about male and female behavior, exploring why males are statistically more prone to antisocial acts while females largely remain on the periphery.
The narrative is enriched by the authors' extensive experience in psychology and criminology, which allows for a nuanced discussion of the complexities surrounding these behavioral differences. Their investigation not only highlights the biological and psychological underpinnings of conduct issues but also emphasizes the role of societal expectations and childhood experiences. This work provides a critical resource for understanding the roots of antisocial behavior and the implications of gender in shaping these dynamics.
