Capaldi, 2003), much family conflict (Fergusson, et al., 2000; Moffitt & Caspi, 2001;
Odgers, et al., 2008), inadequate parenting (low parental supervision, inconsistent discipline)(Chung, et al., 2002; Moffitt & Caspi, 2001; Moffitt, et al., 2002; Nagin & Farrington, 1992; Odgers, et al., 2008; Patterson, et al., 1998; Wiesner & Capaldi, 3 2003), many changes of primary care taker (Kjelsberg, 1999; Moffitt & Caspi, 2001;
Nagin & Farrington, 1992; Patterson, et al., 1998; Tibbetts & Piquero, 1999), and sibling deviance (Moffitt, 1993).
Parental characteristics associated with LCP antisocial behavior were: mothers with poor mental health (Moffitt & Caspi, 2001; Odgers et al., 2008; D. Shaw, Owens, Vondra, Keenan, & Winslow, 1996), parental criminal conviction (Fergusson, et al., 2000; Kjelsberg, 1999; associated with AL: Nagin & Farrington, 1992; Odgers, et al., 2008), parental deviance (Moffitt, 1993), parental alcoholism, alcohol problems or illicit drug use (Fergusson et al., 2000), low educational attainment or IQ of the mother (Fergusson, et al., 2000; Nagin & Tremblay, 2001; Odgers, et al., 2008), and low family socio-economic status (SES) (Fergusson et al., 2000; Fontaine, Carbonneau, Vitaro, Barker, & Tremblay, 2009; Kjelsberg, 1999; Moffitt & Caspi, 2001; Odgers et al., 2008; Patterson et al., 1998; Tibbetts & Piquero, 1999).
Individuals on the AL path tended to have backgrounds that were normative (Moffitt & Caspi, 2001). AL offending was assumed to be most strongly related to associations with deviant peers. Attitudes toward adulthood and autonomy, cultural and historical context and age were considered the strongest predictors of short-term offending (Moffitt, 1993).
Thus far, the distinction in EO and AO antisocial behavior has hardly been made in clinical practice. We expect that both groups are represented in our sample and that factors that were found to associate with LCP antisocial behavior in epidemiological studies are also associated with EO disruptive behavior in a clinical sample. The purpose of the present study is to find individual, parental, and family and context risk factors that were present in childhood, that are relatively easy to collect, and are strongly predictive of EO versus AO disruptive behavior in a clinical sample of adolescents with severe disruptive behavior.
