Abstract

Investigates the impact of an individual's life condition on the relationship between moral judgment and behavior, specifically delinquent behavior. Samples two groups: homeless youth and institutionalized youth. Concludes that delinquent behavior is caused by different factors in each of these groups, but both stem from the nature of their social relationships. (DSK)
