In the Cambridge Study in Delinquent Development, 411 South London males have been followed up from age 8 to age 32. The most important childhood (age 8-10) predictors of delinquency were antisocial child behaviour, impulsivity, low intelligence and attainment, family criminality, poverty and poor parental child-rearing behaviour. Offending was only one element of a larger syndrome of antisocial behaviour that arose in childhood and persisted into adulthood. Marriage, employment and moving out of London fostered desistance from offending. Early prevention experiments are needed to reduce delinquency, targeting low attainment, poor parenting, impulsivity and poverty.
在“剑桥青少年犯罪发展研究”中，411名伦敦南部男性从8岁到32岁一直受到跟踪研究。青少年犯罪（8至10岁）最重要的预测因素是反社会儿童行为、冲动性、低智商和低学业成绩、家庭犯罪、贫困以及不良的父母养育行为。犯罪只是童年出现并持续到成年的更广泛反社会行为综合征的一个要素。结婚、就业和搬离伦敦有助于停止犯罪。需要开展早期预防实验以减少犯罪，目标是低学业成绩、不良养育方式、冲动性和贫困。
