- Results:
- Believes a LOW resting heart rate is a good predictor of an individual who will seek excitement to raise their arousal level, creating a fearless temperament.
- New research suggesting the adolescent brain is still forming its final connections in the PRE-FRONTAL LOBES right up to the early twenties.
- Activity in pre-frontal lobes has been shown to be lower in impulsive individuals who are antisocial and aggressive.
- Explains why offending peaks during adolescence. Birth complications+poor parenting+physical abuse and malnutrition, smoking+drinking during pregnancy all add to risk.
- Conclusions:
- Early INTERVENTION and prevention may be an effective way of reversing biological defects that predispose to antisocial and aggressive behaviour.
