The phenomenon of victimization has been enjoying increasing attention both from the scientific community as from concerned citizens in general. In this study we examine the relationship between victimization and anti-social behavior in Portuguese community young adults (approximately 400 males and females). The group of victims and offenders differ from the groups of pure victims and controls in measures of delinquency, externalizing problems, drug abuse and domestic violence. The group of victims/offenders is a priority target for psychosocial interventions.Downloads
