abstract="Sociologists in investigating the relationship between class and deviance, have almost exclusively viewed class as the independent and deviance as the dependent variable. This paper, using intergenerational occupational mobility as a measure of class and juvenile anti-social behavior as a measure of deviance, offers evidence that deviance determines class. Former child guidance clinic patients seen for severe anti-social behavior are found 30 years later to have more unfavorable occupational mobility than both former patients seen for other problems and normal school children. Juvenile anti-social behavior appears to affect later occupational status by interfering with educational achievement and by continuation into adulthood, when expressed as poor job performance. The disproportionate incidence of anti-social children in the lower classes apparently can be partially explained by their high rate of anti-social fathers, whose own deviance has determined their low occupational status.
