It has also been defined as any type of conduct that violates the basic rights of another person [1]. and any behaviour that is considered to be disruptive to others in society [2].This can be carried out in various ways, which includes but is not limited to intentional aggression as well as covert and overt hostility [3]. But researchers have stated that it is a difficult term to define particularly in the United Kingdom where there are an infinite number of acts that fall into it's category [4] Although the term is fairly new to the common lexicon, the word “ antisocial behaviour” has been used for many years in the psychosocial world where it was defined as “unwanted behaviour as the result of personality disorder”([5]. For example, David Farrington, a British criminologist and forensic psychologist [6], stated that teenagers can exhibit anti-social behaviours by engaging in various amounts of wrongdoings such as stealing, vandalism, sexual promiscuity, excessive smoking, heavy drinking, confrontations with parents,and gambling [7].

Some researchers have stated that youth who experience deficits emotionally and physiologically early on in life, are at a greater risk of developing behavioural problems as they age, as issues with self-regulation are observed [8]. However more research is required.

It has been suggested that individuals with intellectual disabilities have higher tendencies to display anti-social behaviours, but this may be related to social deprivation and mental health problems [9]. However more research is required on this subject.

Anti-social behavior is not acceptable in any society [10].
