Abstract

Adolescent violence is a major public health problem. The factors influencing boys to become violent are now known; hence, physicians may now recognize adolescents who may become violent. Physicians can be involved in the prevention of violence by either counseling young adolescents who demonstrate factors that influence violence, or by referring those at-risk individuals to a counselor.
