ISRD Panel 3: Family Dynamics and Social Identity in Youth Delinquency
Fri, September 5, 2:00 to 3:15pm, Communications Building (CN), CN 3106Session Submission Type: Pre-arranged Panel
Abstract
This panel focuses on the crucial role that family dynamics and social identity play in shaping youth delinquency. It gathers research that examines parental violence, revenge motives, school belonging, and ethnic identity as factors influencing young people’s involvement in criminal behavior. Studies presented in this session explore how familial conflicts, including corporal punishment and inter-parental violence, create environments that may foster aggressive behavior and later delinquency. Concurrently, the panel investigates how broader social factors—such as a sense of belonging at school and the strength of ethnic identity—can either mitigate or exacerbate tendencies toward offending.
