Hypothesis
Theft as antisocial behavior will be positively associated with expectations of owning, but negatively associated with training in use of productive property (143).
Note
Characteristics of adolescence include opportunity for property (r = 0.36), productive work as principal area of skill training (r = -0.36), leisure as principal peer activity (r = -0.36), and anticipated differentiation from adult work (r = 0.38).
