Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Family history of antisocial behavior is not considered a criminogenic need by Andrews and Bonta. Criminogenic needs are characteristics, traits, problems, or issues of an individual that directly relate to the individual's likelihood to commit crime. Family history, while potentially influential, is not a direct characteristic or need of the individual that can be addressed to reduce criminal behavior.
