Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Life-course-persistent delinquents (also known as early-starters) show signs of problems from birth and engage in criminal activity well into adulthood. They often have neurological or psychological issues and stressful family environments, which contribute to their behavior. They are the most serious and persistent type of delinquent, and require long-term intervention and support. The other options, adolescent-limited delinquents, lifetime-course-limited delinquents, and time-specific delinquents, do not fit the description of individuals showing signs of problems since birth and engaging in criminal activity past their mid-20s.
