Introduction: Adolescents are the spiritual assets of the society and their mental and physical health guarantees the health of the society in the future. Therefore, their issues are among the issues that should be given special attention. Investigating the root issues of teenagers and their delinquency is necessary to reach an ideal conditional society.
Method: The method of the current research was a descriptive and comparative causal type. The statistical population of delinquent juveniles included all adolescent boys between the ages of 15 and 18 years of the correctional center of Tehran in the first quarter of 1401 and the statistical population of non-delinquent juveniles included all adolescent boys of Tehran city, based on the age and region of residence of delinquent juveniles. In each delinquent and non-delinquent group, 63 people and a total of 126 people were selected by targeted sampling method for delinquent teenagers and available and voluntary sampling method for non-delinquent teenagers. To collect data, the revised scale of sensitivity to reinforcement (Jackson, 2009), family social capital questionnaire (Dori Bejestani, 2013) and emotional control questionnaire (Roger and Najarian, 1989) were used.
Findings: The results of multivariate analysis of variance showed that there is a significant difference between behavioral brain systems, social cognitive capital outside the family and emotional inhibition of delinquent and non-delinquent boys (P<0.01).
Discussion: It seems that behavioral brain systems and biological bases, social factors related to family structure and emotional processes can be considered as effective factors in the occurrence of delinquency and prevention of delinquent behaviors by most researchers and practitioners in this field.
