THE ORIGIN OF CRIMINAL BEHAVIOR IN THE CONTEXT OF DEVELOPMENTAL RISK FACTORS
THE ORIGIN OF CRIMINAL BEHAVIOR IN THE CONTEXT OF DEVELOPMENTAL RISK FACTORS

Summary/Abstract: Research on the complexity of human nature and crime has always captured the attention of the entire social community, constantly grappling with these challenges. Numerous scientific studies have dealt with the origins of criminal behavior and the explanation of crime. Since the beginning of the 19th century, broad scientific perspectives have ranged from considering crime as an inevitable derivative of general poverty, unemployment, and poor parenting and/or as a symptom of individual psychological deficits, to the standpoint that crime is attributed to social conditions. Today, the origins of criminal behavior are considered in the context of biological factors, learning and situational factors, and primarily developmental risk factors (risk factors of the social environment, risk factors associated with parents and family, psychological risk factors), which are the focus of this work. This paper aims to examine the implications of the complex interactions of these developmental factors and their role in the origin of criminal behavior.
