1. Beaver, K. M., Barnes, J. C., & Boutwell, B. B. (2014). The biosocial underpinnings to the heritability of antisocial behavior and criminality. Criminal Justice and Behavior, 41(4), 419-429.

This article explores the genetic and environmental factors that contribute to criminal behavior, with a specific focus on twins. The authors discuss the role of genetics in criminal behavior, as well as the influence of environmental factors such as family upbringing and peer relationships. The article also examines the differences in criminal behavior patterns between identical twins (who share 100% of their genes) and fraternal twins (who share 50% of their genes), providing insights into the heritability of criminal behavior.

2. Raine, A., Brennan, P., & Mednick, S. A. (1994). Birth complications combined with early maternal rejection at age 1 year predispose to violent crime at age 18 years. Archives of General Psychiatry, 51(12), 984-988.

This article discusses the relationship between birth complications, early maternal rejection, and the development of criminal behavior in twins. The authors present findings from a longitudinal study that followed twins from birth to age 18, examining the impact of these early life factors on the likelihood of engaging in violent crime. The article highlights the importance of early intervention and support for at-risk children to prevent the development of criminal behavior patterns later in life.
