Download or read book Constitution Types In Delinquency written by Willemse, W A and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-07-04 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is Volume XIX of a series of nineteen on Abnormal and Clinical Psychology. Originally published in 1932, this study looks at practical applications and bio-physiological foundations of Kretschmer’s types. This work has two main aims: First: To apply the clinically originated constitution psychological typology of Kretschmer (with the extensions of Delbriick, Pfahler, etc.) to male juvenile delinquents. Secondly, to co-ordinate—as far as it was possible within the specialized framework—the bio-typologies of Kretschmer, Jaensch, Pende, Berman, Wiersma, etc., in so far as there appears to be similarity between the underlying biological principles of these typologies and those of Kretschmer’s typology.
