On February 13, 2017, I made a contribution to the talk page of Anti-social behaviour. Here is what I said, "In the development section on the main article, the development talked mainly about social media's influence on antisocial behavior however, it only talks about the correlations between factors. Correlation does not show true statistical relationships between things. Anything can be made into a correlation. For example, if you go on sites such as http://tylervigen.com/ and there will be random variables in which you can make your own correlations, you give the random variables and the site will produce a graph and statistics. Correlations aren't very unreliable, especially when talking about something with high importance. Another thing is that is doesn't mention any key findings from infancy to adulthood. It also does not mention the non-aggressive behaviors. If there is any correlation to talk about, talk about the correlation between family problems, environmental effects, etc. If there is any disagreements or if there is anyway I can make a contribution to this article in this area, please let me know. Thank you!" (LamearD.)
On March 2, 2017, I added to the Anti-social behaviour article. This is my contribution, "Studies have shown that in children between ages 13–14 who bully or show aggressive behavior towards others exhibits anti-social behaviors in their early adulthood. There are strong statistical relationships that shows this significant association between childhood aggressiveness and anti-social behaviors. Analyses saw that 20% of these children whom exhibits anti-social behaviors at later ages had court appearances and police contact as a result of their behavior." (LamearD.)
On March 4, 2017, I added to the Anti-social behaviour article. "There is a common error of the way the public use and interpret the word "anti-social" or "antisocial". The misinterpretation is when it is used in the context of meaning asocial instead of anti-social. (Someone say they are feeling antisocial in meaning that they are not feeling social at the time.) Asocial means to be not social, withdrawn from society while anti-social relates to harmful acts or feelings.
