N2  - OBJECTIVE: Measures of drug use, law-abidance beliefs, sensation seeking, fear of victimization, high-risk group identification, self-protection needs and behaviors, and demographics were investigated as longitudinal predictors of violence perpetration among 870 high-risk adolescents. METHOD: Self-reports from the same youth were obtained 1-year apart. RESULTS: In addition tobaseline violence perpetration, marijuana use, relatively young age, male sex, high-risk group self-identification, low perceived efficacy of the police department, and nonavoidance of dangerous places predicted later perpetrated violence. CONCLUSION: Personal and social factors beyond baseline violent behavior predict risk for future violent behavior. (Abstract Adapted from Source: American Journal of Health Behavior, 1999.
