Extract

This paper should be considered a preliminary communication, tentative and suggestive. It is based on a psychiatric and electro-physiological study of 70 cases (children, adolescents and adults) referred for anti-social and/or criminal behaviour, and is an attempt to suggest more defined criteria for the assessment of a particular syndrome.
