Detailed explanation-1: -Sheldon Glueck (August 15, 1896 – March 10, 1980) was a Polish-American criminologist. He and his wife Eleanor Glueck collaborated extensively on research related to juvenile delinquency and developed the “Social Prediction Tables” model for predicting the likelihood of delinquent behavior in youth.

Detailed explanation-2: -As a group, the Glueck study shows that delinquents tend to be mesomorphic, in constitution (solid, closely knit and muscular). In temperament they are more energetic, impulsive, extroverted, aggressive and destructive than the non-delinquents.

Detailed explanation-3: -There are three common theories on juvenile delinquency. The three theories are the anomie theory, the subculture theory, and the differential opportunity theory. The anomie theory was first written in the 1940s by Robert Merton.
