Abstract

Latinx adolescents are overrepresented in the justice system and have high untreated behavioral health needs. We examined the family as well as promotive and inhibitive environments (i.e., neighborhood and school) and their associations on behavioral health among 181 first-time justice-involved Latinx adolescents. Results showed that more optimal caregiver-adolescent attachment was associated with fewer behavioral health needs; more negative caregiver-adolescent communication with greater behavioral health needs. Increased neighborhood disadvantage and negative school interactions served as inhibitive environments and were associated with greater behavioral health needs. Moderation analyses indicated that negative communication was associated with greater behavioral health needs among dyads with large acculturation differences but not for dyads close in acculturation. Findings underscore the need to assess the family relationships and communication, promotive/inhibitive environments, and acculturation differences when determining how to meet behavioral health needs among justice-involved Latinx adolescents.

家庭、邻里和学校对拉美裔青少年行为健康需求的影响》（Impact of Family, Neighborhood, and Schools on Behavioral Health Needs of Justice-Involved Latinx Adolescents.

拉美裔青少年在司法系统中所占比例过高，他们的行为健康需求也很高，但却得不到治疗。我们研究了 181 名首次触犯法律的拉美裔青少年的家庭、促进性和抑制性环境（即社区和学校）及其与行为健康的关系。结果表明，照顾者与青少年的依恋关系越理想，行为健康需求就越少；照顾者与青少年的沟通越消极，行为健康需求就越大。更多的邻里劣势和消极的学校互动是抑制性环境，与更大的行为健康需求相关。调节分析表明，在文化差异较大的家庭中，负面交流与更大的行为健康需求相关，但在文化差异较小的家庭中，负面交流与更大的行为健康需求无关。研究结果强调，在确定如何满足涉及司法问题的拉美裔青少年的行为健康需求时，有必要评估家庭关系和沟通、促进/抑制性环境以及文化差异。

期刊介绍： Couple and Family Psychology: Research and Practice ® (CFP) is a scholarly journal publishing peer-reviewed papers representing the science and practice of family psychology. CFP is the official publication of APA Division 43 (Society for Couple and Family Psychology) and is intended to be a forum for scholarly dialogue regarding the most important emerging issues in the field, a primary outlet for research particularly as it impacts practice and for papers regarding education, public policy, and the identity of the profession of family psychology. As the official journal for the Society, CFP will provide a home for the members of the division and those in other fields interested in the most cutting edge issues in family psychology. Unlike other journals in the field, CFP is focused specifically on family psychology as a specialty practice, unique scientific domain, and critical element of psychological knowledge. CFP will seek and publish scholarly manuscripts that make a contribution to the knowledge base of family psychology specifically, and the science and practice of working with individuals, couples and families from a family systems perspective in general.
