International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2013
We tested the peer-socialization/contextual-amplification explanation for the link between early female puberty and problem behaviour.

Theoretically, the PT–delinquency relationship is as a result of changes in parental supervision, peer affiliations, and body‐image perceptions or is a ...
