The program began work in February 1988. During its first phase, three working groups were created to focus separately on pathways to the onset of conduct disorder, the onset of delinquency and criminality, and the continuation of criminality and desistance from it. The working groups surveyed theory, knowledge, instruments and measures, promising intervention experiments, and existing studies in relation to the age groups and developmental stages with which each was centrally concerned. Their reports were completed in December 1988 and were followed by a second phase, which focused on developing a comprehensive design for longitudinal research. This document details these efforts, focusing on design and sampling issue, measurement and analysis, cohort studies, and other studies. Figures, appended lists of participants and meetings, appended background reports, and approximately 250 references
