The authors surveyed over 9000 seventh grade students in the Houston Independent School District up to three times during their junior high school years and once as young adults between 1971 and 1980. Drawing on the data gathered from this longitudinal survey, Kaplan and Johnson develop, test and present a comprehensive theoretical statement about the social and social psychological processes involved in the onset and course of deviant behaviour.
