Aggressive and income offending at Waves 1 through 10 were regressed onto a dichotomous measure of prior involvement in animal cruelty and four control variables (age, race, sex, early onset behavior problems) assessed at Wave 0 (baseline). Results indicated that childhood animal cruelty was equally predictive of aggressive and non\u2010aggressive (income) offending, a finding inconsistent with the hypothesis that cruelty toward animals desensitizes a person to future interpersonal aggression or in some way prepares the individual for interpersonal violence toward humans. Whereas a significant sex by animal cruelty interaction was predicted, there was no evidence that sex or any of the other demographic variables included in this study (age, race) consistently moderated the animal cruelty\u2013subsequent offending relationship. On the other hand, two cognitive\u2010personality measures (interpersonal hostility, callousness\/unemotionality) were found to successfully mediate the animal cruelty\u2013subsequent offending relationship. Outcomes from this study imply that a causal nexus\u2014partially or fully mediated by hostility, callousness\/unemotionality, and other cognitive\u2010personality variables\u2014may exist between childhood animal cruelty and subsequent offending, although the effect is not specific to violence.
