Abstract

The New York longitudinal study has followed the development of 136 subjects from infancy into adolescence. The authors report the distribution of diagnoses and outcome of 43 children who developed behavior problems before the adolescent period and the characteristics of 5 new cases diagnosed in adolescence and discuss issues of prediction. The analysis of the longitudinal data for subjects with and without behavior disorders permits discussion of two of the general issues in the literature: the significance of adolescent turmoil and the distinctness of adolescence as a developmental stage.
