The aim of this study was to examine the predictors of adolescent delinquency in a longitudinal study. The first assessment data were obtained from 1998 to 2000, and a follow-up assessment was performed in 2006 as the original participants became middle school students (13-15 years of age). For the first assessment, the subjects were evaluated using the Korean version of the Child Behavior Checklist (K-CBCL), which was administered by the parents. In addition to the K-CBCL, the parents completed a general questionnaire which included information regarding family structure, parental education and economic status. Reassessment was done via self report using the Korean Youth Self Report (K-YSR). The subjects were categorized into two groups according to delinquency subscale scores on the K-YSR; the delinquency group and the non-delinquency group. Logistic regression analysis demonstrated that delinquent behavior score and total problem score on the K-CBCL at age 7 independently predicted adolescent delinquency. In addition, the results revealed that a parent's observation of their child's problems could predict later delinquency. Finally, the implications and limitations of the present study and suggestions for the future research were discussed.
