Abstract

Alcohol and drug use in relation to criminal activities has a long and colourful history. Several studies convey that problem behaviour such as heavy substance use and criminal behaviour are highly related (Gottfredson and Hirschi 1990; Junger- Tas et al. 1992; Franken 2003; Monshouwer et al. 2004). In accordance with these findings, this chapter will present and discuss the results of the relationship between substance use and delinquent behaviour.
