The use of coercion is associated with a number of patient characteristics as well as organisational, contextual and professional's aspects.

FASD has been characterized by an array of symptoms that negatively affects cognitive, social, and adaptive functioning. Individuals living with FASD, relative to the general population, are more likely to become entangled in the legal system due to challenges associated with the disorder. Moreover, symptomology of FASD often contributes to these individuals struggling in successfully navigating various stages of the legal system, including arrest, interrogation, working with their defense counsel, and courtroom appearances. The difficulties faced by defendants living with FASD are exacerbated by systemic failure from legal professionals in recognizing and accommodating for the extent and complexities of this disorder. Consequently, defendants living with FASD often do not receive effective due process of law in comparison to their neurotypical peers. Moreover, attempts at punishment and deterrence through probation and jail terms are often ineffective for individuals living with FASD because of the effects of their disorder.

Understanding the prevalence of BPD in this setting can help to inform prison-staff education, funding and intervention options, and adequate care for an already at-risk population. We aimed to explore the global prevalence of BPD diagnoses and self-reported symptomology among adults in prisons via systematic review and meta-analysis. We also aimed to explore gender differences between women and men in prison. Following the PRISMA guidelines, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of papers where a BPD diagnosis or self-reported symptoms were reported within a prison population of male or female adult offenders (18+ years). Our search yielded 33 studies comprising diagnostic interviews, and 15 studies which included self-reported symptom measures. The results indicated that for women and men in prison, the prevalence of BPD was (27.4 % and 18.8 %, respectively) when assessed via diagnostic interview. Results were similar for both women and men in studies that used a self-report measure to assess a BPD diagnosis (29.1 % and 16.4 %). Findings suggest that the prevalence of BPD in prisons should be considered when making decisions about mental health and criminogenic interventions. Self-report measures could be a resource-efficient method for screening prisoners for personality pathology in prison settings. Contemporary, well-structured, large-scale studies are required to better understand the prevalence of personality disorder in prisons.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47930,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Law and Psychiatry","volume":"97 ","pages":"Article 102032"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2024-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142441981","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

They place particular emphasis on the right of people with mental health conditions to make their own decisions in all areas of life, including mental health treatment. One of the challenges in this context is that a person can lose the capacity to make these decisions during episodes of severe mental illness. Advance Healthcare Directives (AHDs), also known as Advance Choice Documents (ACDs), can help to overcome this challenge and allow people to exercise more agency over their care choices. AHDs are statements about the type of treatment a person would or would not like to receive in future if they are in a situation where they require treatment but are unable to make or communicate their decision. Despite an expanding body of evidence that AHDs enhance autonomy and are supported by patients and staff alike, uptake of AHDs is extremely low across many jurisdictions. Legislative reform and educational initiatives to enhance knowledge and awareness are vital for advancing and enlivening this field in clinical practice. This paper explores one such legislative development (Ireland's Assisted Decision Making (Capacity) Act, 2015) and one such educational initiative (the <span><span>www.advancechoice.org</span><svg><path></path></svg></span> website and videos).
