Description

"Lahey (president, Society for Child and Adolescent Clinical Psychology) presents international contributions on causal factors of conduct disorder and juvenile delinquency. The book opens with an overview of conceptual and methodological issues. Four general causal models are then delineated and are applied to specific aspects of the origins of conduct problems, including early childhood influences, cognitive factors, and biological influences. A concluding chapter looks at the role of animal models in causal research on aggression." Copyright © 2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
