%X Life-course-persistent antisocial behavior, which is almost exclusively male, is arguably the single most important child clinical problem. The neurodevelopmental factors which contribute to this markedly male predominance stem from the greater male vulnerability to inherited and acquired neurodevelopmental impairments which increase the risk for antisocial behavior. The factors that contribute to this greater male vulnerability are discussed, and implications for prevention are presented.<p />
