Socio-demographic differences for the gender are highly significant: p>0.001, and broken family, migration, and diseases in family are of lower significance. EPQ test shows differences between groups - violent: M±SD=extroversion: 15.53±7.55, neuroticism: 9.10±6.23, psychoticisms: 14.03±5.11, Lay -scale: 10.33±6.70, and recidivists: extroversion: 19. 11±6.55 neuroticism: 6.55±3.11, psychoticims: 9.10±3.05, Lay -scale: 11.20±6.60. BAI test has these significances - violent: numbness: 3.77±0.77 tension: 2.05±0.78 uncontrolness: 1.62±0.85, and recidivists: neurosis: 1.91±0.71, fear: 1.60±0.85 and sweating: 1.85±0.60 with significance P<0.01. PIE in violent has increased values of destruction and aggression, and in recidivists exploration and conformism.
