.................. includes a broad range of behaviours, from socially unacceptable behaviour to criminal offences by children.

  • A.Emotional disorder
  • B.Conduct disorder
  • C.Truancy
  • D.Juvenile delinquency

Answer: D

The term is juvenile delinquency.

Juvenile delinquency is a legal and social term covering a wide range of behaviour by children and adolescents, from socially unacceptable acts such as acting out in school, through status offences such as running away, to criminal acts such as theft.

Conduct disorder is a psychiatric diagnosis for a persistent pattern of aggression and rule-breaking, not a label for the whole range of offences. Truancy is only one such behaviour, and emotional disorder concerns anxiety or mood problems.
