Civic development and antisocial attitudes/behaviors among Somali immigrants: Change over one year.

Conclusions: Antisocial attitudes/behavior can coexist with civic engagement.

Movement away from, or into, antisocial attitudes/behavior differs by gender and can happen either in the presence or absence of civic engagement.
