ANNOTATION: This document "Investigate[s] the development of offending and antisocial behavior from age 10 to age 50 and the adult life adjustment of "persisters," "desisters," and "late-onset" offenders at age 48" (p. 1). Sections of the report, that follow a detailed review of its research, are: executive summary; previous results from the Cambridge Study; the social interview at age 48; official criminal careers; self-report versus official offending; life success at age 48; persisters (convicted before and after age 21), desisters (convicted before age 21), and late-onset (convicted after age 21) offenders; and policy implications. The proportion of men leading successful lives for the three offender groups increased very significantly.
