abstract="In Montenegro there was an intensive migration of rural population to the cities in the second half of 20th century, followed by uneven population distribution, problems with adapting to new surroundings, poor housing conditions, unemployment and evident manifestation of economic, social and moral crisis. The result were numerous socio-pathological issues such as criminal behaviour, psychoactive substance abuse, suicide, panhandling, family disintegration. The purpose of this study is to find out whether there is a statistically significant difference in objective living conditions of juvenile delinquents' families who migrated and those who did not migrate. Some research shows that objective living conditions which can trigger off delinquent behaviour are worse in juvenile delinquents' families than in families of non-delinquents. The research data indicate a notable difference between juvenile delinquents and non-delinquents regarding most statistical variables on objective living conditions. This leads to the conclusion that migrations can be considered a risky element with indirect impact on behavioral disorders. For this reason, migrant families and especially their young members need help and social acceptance to facilitate their adjustment to the new environment, proper functioning and development. © 2015 Institut za društvena istraživanja u Zagrebu - Institute for Social Research in Zagreb Sva prava pridržana - All rights reserved<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
