The Adult Criminal as Juvenile
D. H. STOTT, D. M. WILSON; THE ADULT CRIMINAL AS JUVENILE: A follow-up study of Glasgow juvenile delinquents into adulthood, The British Journal of Crimino
Confirmation of a General Factor of Effectiveness‐motivation by Individual Tests
S ummary . Following the finding of a general factor in the 11 areas of function covered by the Stott‐Sharp Effectiveness‐Motivation Scale for pre‐school children, five individual tests exploring various aspects of effectiveness motivation were devised. These were applied to two samples of 4‐year‐old children (N=82). All five tests correlated positively with the E‐M Scale, and all except one test correlated with the others at a generally satisfac…
Inconsequence as a Primary Type of Behaviour Disturbance in Children
S ummary . In previous studies Stott proposed a type of behaviour disturbance which he named Inconsequence—a failure to reflect upon the consequences of responses resulting in impulsive and often inappropriate behaviour. This article reports (1) an external validation against teacher‐judgment of 30 items of the Bristol Social Adjustment Guide hypothesized as indicating Inconsequence; (2) an item‐analysis of the proposed 30 indications, of which 2…

Prediction of Success or Failure On Probation
LL the Glasgow boys aged 8 to 15 years who were put on probation for theA first time during 1957 were made the subject of a follow-up study of success or failure on probation as judged by the commission of further offences. In respect of each, and for non-delinquent controls of the same age attending the same schools, their teachers completed a Bristol Social Adjustment Guide. (1. 5> This is
Delinquency Proneness and Court Disposal of Young Offenders
A New Delinquency Prediction Instrument Using Behavioural Indications
Delinquency, Maladjustment and Unfavourable Ecology
The dichotomy of ‘psychological’ and ‘sociological’ delinquency is criticized. To ascertain to what extent delinquency is purely cultural, the prevalence of psychological factors was investigated in a year‐group of Glasgow boy probationers. The latter were found to be strikingly more prone to behaviour‐disturbance than the non‐delinquent controls Contrary to theories of ‘cultural’ delinquency, the probationers in high‐delinquency areas were just …
Observations on Retest Discrepancy in Mentally Sub‐normal Children
S ummary . Retest scores of subnormal children were examined in order to check the reliability of previous retests and to estimate to what extent the discrepancies might reflect real changes in the rate of mental development as well as errors of standardization. The discrepancies were considerably greater than those obtained from the standardization of the Binet by Terman and Merrill. The usual tendency towards increasing discrepancy with time‐in…
Interaction of Heredity and Environment in Regard to ‘Measured Intelligence’
S ummary . Recent work in experimental biology suggests interaction in the form of the facilitation of genetic pre‐disposition by adverse conditions of gestation. This may explain not only how certain environmental factors may produce mental defect and physical malformation in human beings, but also certain more general findings of the Scottish Mental Survey. The greater resemblance in ‘measured intelligence’ of monozygotic twins can no longer co…
