Journal Title: Asian Journal Social Sciences & Humanities - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 2

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to determine the association between income and antisocial behaviors among 395 school going male and female adolescents who are at the between 13 and 18 years in the capital of Iran, Tehran. Adolescent’s income was hypothesized as correlation of antisocial behavior. As results suggest, the low levels of income served as a significant correlation of antisocial behavior among adolescents in Iran. Adolescents more probably exhibit antisocial behavior, if they experienced the lower level of incomes.
