Abstract
In our sample of justice-involved youth (n=38; Mage=14.44), youth with greater criminal risk exhibited significantly more antisocial behavior (RC4; η2 =.328), negative peer influence (NPI; η2=.322), substance use (SUB; η2=.256), and disconstraint (DISC-r; η2=.256) among other MMPI-A-RF scales. Findings clarify clinical targets to reduce criminal risk.
