This article describes both school and social situations as well as the adjustment during transition to adulthood of youths who had displayed externalized problem behaviours in their high school years. Results show that when compared to a control group of youths (N = 93) those with problem behaviours (N = 93) have similar situations with regards to employment, schooling and residential arrangements. However, they still show more delinquent behaviours than their counterparts. Significant differences arise when gender is compared within the behaviour problem group. Girls demonstrate more difficult adjustment problems both internalized and externalized than boys.
