ABSTRACT

In para. 13 we contended that dysplasias (physical manifestations of dysglandularisms) should prove very significant in all abnormal personalities of whom criminals, psychopaths, etc., are certainly sub-groups. Unfortunately, the dysplastic group is very heterogeneous, and dysplastic types have not been worked out definitely enough or in sufficient detail. We can, therefore, give only very vague co-ordinations between dysplasias and crime, or dysplastic types and delinquent types.
