"This book is based on two longitudinal studies of behavior development, both conducted in Finland, a living laboratory setting for longitudinal research. Much of the book reports results from a longitudinal study begun in Jyvaskyla, Finland, in 1968, when its participants were schoolchildren. This study is complemented by two Finnish twin-family studies to yield insights into genetic and environmental sources of variation in early development and later outcomes. Findings from the two sets of longitudinal studies are presented, set within a theoretical framework of socioemotional development, and focused on predictors of health-related outcomes from childhood to early adulthood."--BOOK JACKET.
