Depressed youngsters who do not socialise much are most likely to lash out violently at others, a new study has claimed.According to researchers at Texas A&M International University, the strongest risk factors for violent behaviour were depression and having delinquent peers. Overall, the researchers found, the factors that did increase the risk of violent behaviour had pretty small effects. A lot of media attention tends to get focused on individual factors, like playing violent video games, and even when there's no evidence that they're connected with violent behaviour.
