ABSTRACT
WE turn in this and the succeeding two chapters to the influence of certain aspects of the family environment on the development of those traits (43 in all) that were not found in Physique and Delinquency to vary in incidence among the body types and are therefore not as yet presumed to have a largely constitutional orientation. In Chapters VI and VII we shall consider further the 23 traits already found in the previous work to vary in incidence among the four body types and therefore presumed to be closer to the constitutional than to the sociocultural end of the postulated biosocial continuum.
