We assumed that differences in labour force participation between father and mother lead to differences in parental control behaviour towards boys and girls, which in parental control behaviour towards boys and girls, which in turn lead to different risk-taking preferences and eventually produce gender differences in aggressive behaviour. A revised PCT acknowledges that dominance ideologies also play a role in the genesis of gender differences in delinquency. This proposition is also tested. Analyses are based on data from 319 families (father, mother and two adolescent opposite-sex sibilings) from west berlin, East Berlin and Toronto. The findings support assumptions of PCT but differ substantially between the tree cities. Evidence of the link between structural patriarchy and parental style - postulated on the original PCT - is found in East Berlin, wheareas the west Berlin and Toronto results a fit modified version of PCT featuring gender-role attitudes (ideological patriarchy).
