Abstract

This study examined mental health service use among 75,784 Australian young people from families with different intergenerational patterns of child protection (CP) contact evident in longitudinal multi-agency administrative data, namely cycle maintainers (parental and offspring CP contact), cycle initiators (only offspring CP contact), cycle breakers (only parental CP contact), or no CP contact. Young people from cycle maintainer families had the highest prevalence of mental health service use (76%), followed by those from cycle initiator (70%), cycle breaker (53%), then no CP contact families (49%). Young people from cycle maintainer and cycle initiator families accessed mental health services earlier than those from cycle breaker and no CP contact families. While those from families with cumulative intergenerational CP involvement were the most likely to use mental health services, young people's mental health service use appeared to be more closely linked to their own CP contact than to that of their parents.

不同代际儿童保护接触方式家庭青少年心理健康服务使用情况

本研究调查了75,784名澳大利亚年轻人的心理健康服务使用情况，这些家庭具有不同的代际儿童保护（CP）接触模式，即周期维护者（父母和后代CP接触）、周期发起者（仅后代CP接触）、周期破坏者（仅父母CP接触）或无CP接触。来自周期维持者家庭的年轻人使用心理健康服务的比例最高（76%），其次是周期启动者家庭（70%）、周期破坏者家庭（53%），然后是无CP接触者家庭（49%）。来自周期维持者和周期发起者家庭的年轻人比来自周期破坏者和没有CP接触家庭的年轻人更早获得心理健康服务。虽然那些来自累积代际CP参与家庭的人最有可能使用心理健康服务，但年轻人的心理健康服务使用似乎与他们自己的CP接触比与他们的父母更密切相关。
