Abstract

This study scrutinizes if detained girls with psychiatric disorders were at risk for future violent arrests during adolescence. A structured diagnostic interview was performed to determine the presence of various psychiatric disorders in 313 detained girls. Official juvenile arrest records were collected. With three exceptions that are in need of replication, psychiatric disorders (e.g., post-traumatic stress disorder, subtypes of conduct disorder), psychiatric disorder categories (e.g., anxiety disorders), and psychiatric comorbidity patterns were not prospectively related to future violent arrests. Our findings suggest that detained girls with psychiatric disorders should not be considered more dangerous than their counterparts without disorders, at least not during adolescence.

精神疾病和未来的暴力逮捕:对被拘留女孩的前瞻性研究

这项研究仔细检查了被拘留的患有精神障碍的女孩在青春期是否有未来被暴力逮捕的风险。对313名被拘留女孩进行了结构化的诊断性访谈，以确定她们是否存在各种精神障碍。收集了官方的青少年逮捕记录。除了三个需要复制的例外，精神障碍（如创伤后应激障碍、行为障碍亚型）、精神障碍类别（如焦虑障碍）和精神共病模式与未来的暴力逮捕没有前瞻性关系。我们的研究结果表明，患有精神障碍的被拘留女孩不应被认为比没有精神障碍的女孩更危险，至少在青春期不应如此。
