Hello,
I need your help to improve my writing please. I'll have topass take an English test this next Thursday and I’m a little nervous about the writing part.
I thought of using some of my papers that I had in college and trying to translate them in English. I went to a French speaking college and I think it’s going to be a good way to practise.
Thank you for your answers.
Here’s an abstract of one of my paper. I did my major in psychology.
Many risk factors are link to teenagers antisocial behavior and gang involvement. Environmental risk factors present since birth are the one who have the greater impact on the development of a child. Family risk factors like the school level of the parents, the IQ of the mother and the parents antisocial behavior , help us into a better understanding and help us predicting violent and antisocial behavior in the teenage years. Other risk factors present may be at the origin of adolescent antisocial behavior . These risk factors include individual risk factors especially cognitive difficulties like being able to see the relationship between actions and consequences, the way the adolescent adapt into new situations and the way he process new information. Risk factor can be categorize into five categories: individual characteristics, peers, family and community. A link has been establish between psychological factors, delinquency and severe and violent offending occurring later in life. These factors can be link to mental retardation or other behavior disorder like attention deficit disorder and certain antisocial and neurotic trait of personality, low adaptation capacities and a low level of functioning in school. Specialists in the field think that some externalize behavior like early deviant behavior, violence, aggressions and drug use are important predicting factors of future antisocial behavior.
Rarely, adolescent involve in street gang have protective factors. Reinforcing the protective factors play a major role into reducing the number of adolescent involve in street gang or improving the probabilities of an adolescent quitting a gang. Having positive peers , good intellectual abilities, good grades, support from his family , not getting involved in drug use, are all protective factors. Some protective factors are more effective than others.
