Zusammenfassung:This paper identifies career criminals in the 1958 Philadelphia Birth Cohort Study. Descriptive differences are presented according to delinquency involvement and demographic attributes.

Based on the findings and limitations confronted in even these extensive data, the paper concludes with considerations for policy and directives for future research
