Abstract
The Cambridge Study in Delinquent Development (CSDD) represents one of the longest and most comprehensive prospective longitudinal studies in the world focusing on offending, risk factors, and life events. This chapter, based on the corresponding chapter in the previous edition (Farrington DP, Piquero, AR, Jennings WG, Offending from childhood to late middle age: recent results from the Cambridge study in delinquent development. Springer, New York, 2013), summarizes key results up to 2012, with regard to family criminality, the relationship between employment and crime, risk factors associated with offending, the association between offending and adverse physical health outcomes, and psychopathy. This chapter reviews these research findings in detail and concludes with a discussion of the strengths and limitations of the CSDD. Key results published from 2013 to 2023 are described in Chap. 6 .
