The Effects of Age and Gender on Parental Control and Delinquency.
Seydlitz, Ruth
Youth and Society, v23 n2 p175-201 Dec 1991
Data from a national survey for 872 white adolescents (470 males and 402 females) are used to examine the relationships between parental control and juvenile delinquency. Parental controls significantly inhibit delinquency more often for males than females. For males, these controls are more effective in middle adolescence. (SLD)
