Abstract
The article is devoted to the analysis of criminal behavior biological determinants, namely the influence of temperament on a person's deviance. Biological factors play a significant role in the formation of criminal behavior. They determine the specific nature of a person's reactions to any influences.
 It is determined that temperament is a set of certain properties that quite stably characterize the dynamic features of the individual's psyche. In each case, it is fixed in the form of a psychological concept form of manifestation inherent in a particular individual lifestyle. Activity, reactivity, sensitivity, plasticity, extraversion, rate of reactions, emotionality, largely determine how a person lives, how he establishes and implements his relationship with the world.
 Several theories of temperament and its relationship with criminal behavior are analyzed there. It has been found that biological theories of determining criminal behavior were probably one of the first from another ones. Most biological theories arose within the criminological study of society.
 It is determined that in criminological reseaches, the study of temperament as a biological determinant of deviant behavior began to appear only in the late twentieth century in the works of American scientists. The main explanation for this fact is that much of the temperament research has been conducted by psychologists who study children at a very early age - long before they detect truly criminal behaviors. Manifested in the dynamic features of the human psyche and behavior, each type of temperament can have its advantages and disadvantages.
 Modern criminological research allows us to conclude that it is not a specific form of deviant behavior (for example, criminal) that is inherited, but rather individual psychological traits that increase the likelihood of deviance, such as impulsiveness, aggression, domination, or leadership.
 It is concluded that the biological determinants of criminal behavior act only in conjunction with the social ones and form a causal complex of crime and are a prerequisite for further development of measures to prevent crime in all its forms.
