Abstract

A revised and abbreviated version of the Adolescent Problems Inventory (API) was used to examine the relationship between social skills deficits and antisocial behavior. A factor analysis of the revised API yielded three factors (Immediate Response Demand, Deferred Response Demand, and Antisocial Peer Influence) which were differentially related to specific measures of antisocial responding. Results are discussed in the context of a multifactorial model of juvenile delinquency.
