There has been less focus on whether family-based interventions are effective at reducing youth recidivism, especially for newer or lesser known interventions. To address this gap, we conducted a systematic review of studies utilizing family-based interventions to address recidivism for youth involved in the juvenile justice system. Of the identified 3,497 unique articles, 235 full-text articles were reviewed and 31 met criteria for inclusion in the review. A variety of family-based interventions were used, including both widely known (e.g., multisystemic therapy) and lesser known interventions. Most studies demonstrated significant reductions in recidivism, with some mixed findings depending on the type of charge, assessment timepoint, measure of recidivism, or moderating factors. The findings from this review corroborate prior research on the effectiveness of well known interventions for reducing recidivism and highlight the promise of newer interventions. The results also highlight the need for additional research in this area, as well as a greater focus on better understanding the moderating factors that may affect treatment outcomes.","PeriodicalId":47554,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the American Academy of Psychiatry and the Law","volume":" ","pages":"318-329"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2026-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148921389","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As a 20-year follow-up to \"The Risky Enterprise of Risk Assessment,\" this article critically evaluates updated versions of common risk measures (Historical-Clinical-Risk Management Scale 20 (HCR-20V3), Sexually Violent Risk 20 (SVR-20 V2), Violence Risk Appraisal Guide-Revised (VRAG-R), Static-99R, and Risk for Sexual Violence Protocol (RSVP V2)) to determine their appropriateness for SVP evaluations. For more balanced appraisals, risk assessments have more recently considered protective factors (Inventory of Offender Risk, Needs, and Strengths (IORNS), Structured Assessment of Protective Factors-Sex Offenders (SAPROF-SO), and Short-Term Assessment of Risk and Treatability (START)), given their growth in forensic research. Importantly, some risk measures demonstrated substantial improvements. Empirical support for predicting violent sexual recidivism, the legal standard in many SVP jurisdictions, has yet to be reached. Most studies assess general sexual recidivism rather than sexual violence, per se This disconnect presents a professional challenge for evaluators in determining whether previously convicted offenders pose such a risk of sexual violence, following their criminal sentence, as to warrant indefinite civil commitment. This review underscores the need for stronger alignments between SVP legal criteria and forensic assessment instruments to solidly support their empirical use in SVP determinations.","PeriodicalId":47554,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the American Academy of Psychiatry and the Law","volume":" ","pages":"340-351"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2026-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148921435","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study investigates didactic and clinical experiences and attitudes related to correctional psychiatry among psychiatry residency program directors and medical student clerkship directors. An online survey was distributed to assess the current landscape of learner exposure to correctional psychiatry, topics related to criminal legal involvement among people with mental illness, and attitudes toward correctional psychiatry. A total of 96 individuals responded to the survey (overall response rate of 16%). About half of clerkship director (45.2%) and program director (51.1%) respondents report affiliations with correctional institutions. Few residency programs have a mandatory rotation (24.4%) whereas a higher proportion offer elective rotations (57.8%). Although medical student clerkship directors identify teaching correctional health as important, medical students have limited exposure and education on core topics of correctional psychiatry, perhaps related to reported heightened safety concerns. Correctional settings offer an opportunity to expose future psychiatrists to the care of people with criminal legal involvement as well as individuals with serious mental illness needing care. We found variable experiences in the exposure, education, and availability of rotations related to correctional psychiatry. Educators should advocate for learners to have further opportunities in these needed areas.","PeriodicalId":47554,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the American Academy of Psychiatry and the Law","volume":" ","pages":"302-309"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2026-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148240332","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
