[Clinico-epidemiologic characteristics of deviant behavior of adolescents]

The relative incidence of pathological forms of deviant behavior (PFDB) was assessed in adolescents undergoing professional training (320), on last years of secondary school education (291), in those registered in regional adolescent legal inspection wards (62), and in psychoneurological outpatients (409). The nosological preference of different forms of PFDB was established with sexual dimorphism in deviant and delinquent behaviors in the groups under investigation. Deviant behavior polymorphism did not depend on the nosological nature of the disorders.
