What is Taking Stock of Delinquency: An Overview of Findings from Contemporary Longitudinal Studies (Longitudinal Research in the Social and Behavioral Sciences: An Interdisciplinary Series) about?

**Taking Stock in Delinquency** is the comprehensive synthesis of the empirical findings of seven important ongoing longitudinal studies of delinquency. The seven projects included in this volume represent much of the diversity found in individual-based panel studies of antisocial behavior. Individually and collectively, the results of these investigations have been published in a wide range of disciplinary outlets, thus making it difficult to identify common themes and general principles. This volume intends to provide a comprehensive and unified picture of empirical results, both within these studies and across them. One of the fundamental purposes of **Taking Stock in Delinquency** is to examine the extent to which these studies answer the basic question of the origins of delinquent and criminal careers despite their varying guiding theories, methods, and settings. **Taking Stock in Delinquency** is an important resource for criminologists, psychologists, sociologists, and upper-level students on juvenile delinquency, criminology, developmental psychology, and deviant behavior.
