abstract="This study provides basic information about criminal activity at different ages (with offence data collected from official records) for a representative group of Swedish males and females who were investigated, from the age of 10 to 30, in a longitudinal research programme. It details information about the subject population, the method by which crime records were collected, and the coding system used. Prevalence of criminal offences at different ages is described, together with analyses of the ages at which subjects usually began breaking the law, when they were most criminally active, what types of crimes they committed at different ages, and what type of sanctions they were sentenced to. The paper concludes with a discussion of the prevalence of crime.<p />",
