| Research Abstract |
With the grant-in-aid for scientific research (C), we have been doing scientific research in MOJI, KITAYUSHU-SHI on the inherent correlation between the social dynamic changes and the tendency of juvenile delinquency from interdisciplinary perspective of sociology, psychology and social welfare. In 1989, we were to gather hard data on the subject so that we could make a minute analysis of genetic factors of juvenile delinquency. The following are the analytical results of our research, in which meaningful correlation as striking as that in the case of KOKURA and YAHATA cannot be found our between the above-mentioned two variables.
(1) The increase of welfare families and the desolation of families are to be derived from the declining social position of MOJI as a harbor or a transit of expressway, and withdrawal of JNR from there.

(2) School violence is decreasing in number, but 'bullying' in a sly underhand manner shows a latent tendency to increase. Too much intensification of school administration has brought about various problems. Our negotiations with school authorities for making an investigation of the real state of junior high school students' life ended in failure because of unavoidable circumstances on the part of the schools. This led us to clarify the outline of the problems involved not only through a few conferences with school life supervisors or local welfare officer commissioned by the head of MOJI pollice station but also through closer inspections of our own. The human rights question is naturally in the way of our success in gathering the details.
(3) A closer cooperation between each family and schools, and quick proper measures for better substantial school education are our most urgent task. For those young people who have been involved in deviated behavior have actually some defects in their character, and their lack of fortitude, their fragile self-control and their weak disposition to observe moral precepts are said to be primary causes underlying juvenile delinquency.
