ABSTRACT
Historically, the notion of “runaway” has many different connotations. Early theories viewed the runaway as an “adventurer,” akin to Tom Sawyer or Huck Finn (Janus, McCormack, Burgess, & Hartman, 1987) or “psychoneurotic” (Aichom, 1932; Armstrong, 1935; cited in Stefanidis, 1988). Consistent across these views is that the act of running away is interpreted as deviant. This even led to the inclusion of the diagnosis of “Runaway Reaction” in the DSM-II.
