Specificity of cognitive distortions to antisocial behaviours.

Introduction/background: Cognitive distortions have long been posited to facilitate antisocial behaviours, but the specificity of such distortions has rarely been studied.

Aims: To replicate findings of specificity between particular cognitions and externalizing or internalizing behaviours; to test for specificity of relationship between particular cognitions and different types of externalizing behaviours.

Methods: The participants were 239 male youths aged 10 to 19 years (mean (M) = 14.

Flexible cofacial binuclear metal complexes derived from alpha,alpha-bis(salicylimino)-m-xylene.

The tetradentate Schiff-base ligand SIXH2 (alpha,alpha-bis(salicylimino)-m-xylene), prepared from salicylaldehyde and m-xylylenediamine, forms cofacial binuclear complexes with Pd and Cu. Of the two isomers possible (trans-syn and trans-anti) for M2(SIX)2, these complexes crystallize exclusively as the trans-anti isomer. In ansolvous Pd2(SIX)2, the metal-containing planes are approximately parallel, with PdPd 4.
