Annotation

THE VARIABLES OF RACE, SEX, AGE, INCOME STATUS, AND INTERPERSONAL RELATIONSHIPS WERE STUDIED FOR A SAMPLE GROUP OF 168 JUVENILE OFFENDERS AND THEIR VICTIMS.

Abstract

THE OBSERVED RELATIONSHIPS DIFFERED SUBSTANTIALLY FROM FINDINGS OF PREVIOUS STUDIES THAT DEALT WITH ONLY ADULT OR ADULT AND JUVENILE OFFENDERS. THIS RESEARCH POINTS OUT THE NEED FOR MORE RESEARCH.
