Focusing on gender and age variations and using various measures of self - control and of crime / deviance, the authors' provide additional evidence concerning the strongest implications of self control theory that self control interprets the main demographic facts about crime / deviance and is of approximately equal import for all sub categories of individuals. On one hand, the results are strongly supportive of the theory, showing that some measures of self - control not only predict misbehaviour but they interpret the associations between gender and age and measures of crime / deviance. On the other hand, self - control does not appear to predict mis behaviour equally well among various subcategories of individuals particularly not for age groups, even failing to predict misbehaviour at all for some groupings. Moreover, support for the strongest claims of the theory are nor robust, varying depending on how self - control and crime / deviance are measured.
