abstract="This article presents the results of a pilot study that investigated the family decision-making styles of families with a violent adolescent (17) and families with a normal adolescent (12). The results, utilizing an unrevealed differences family interactional test, showed that families with an assaultive teenager when contrasted with normal families had: (a) less agreement when making choices as a group; (b) less agreement between mother and violent son when making choices about activities; (c) sons who had less influence in the families' choice of activities; and, (d) mothers who &quot;dictated&quot; the families' decisions more often. The meanings of these findings and others are discussed by the authors as they relate to the problem of assaultive youths.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
