Glaser, Brian A.; Calhoun, Georgia B.; Bradshaw, Catherine P.; Bates, Jeffrey M.; Socherman, Robert E.

Child & Family Behavior Therapy, v23 n2 p33-45 2001

Examines discrepancies between juvenile offenders and their parents' profiles on the Child Behavior Checklist and the Youth Self-Report, which were completed by adolescent-parent dyads (N=51) receiving probation services. Parents scored higher than their adolescents on both Internalization and Externalization subscales. Parents scored their children's behavior more negatively and attributed that behavior to individual traits. Discusses clinical implications. (JDM)
