Abstract

The current panel presents new and recent findings from the Cambridge Study in Delinquent Development (CSDD), a prospective longitudinal study following 411 boys (G2) from childhood to middle age. The original G2 boys' biological children (G3) were also interviewed at the approximate age of 25.

The first paper in the panel investigates the intergenerational transmission of self reported offending, while the second paper presents results on the intergenerational transmission of intimate partner violence. The third paper investigates the link between testosterone, dominance, and violence. The fourth and final paper compares the role of risk factors on the development of male and female psychopathic traits.
