Examining the relevant trends during this period could yield insight into the persistence of these difficulties and inform targeted intervention strategies. Guided by the theoretical models including developmental system theories and developmental cascade model, the present study focused on three forms of attachment (i.e., child-father attachment, child-mother attachment, and peer attachment) and four types of maladaptive behaviors (i.e., depression, social anxiety, problematic internet use, and academic procrastination) among Chinese adolescents. It aims to uncover their trajectories spanning 2021 to 2023 and the correlations between the trajectories.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>The research draws on data collected at three-time points (i.e., November 2021, May 2022, and May 2023), with a sample of 701 Chinese adolescents (Mage = 14.0 years, SD = 1.44, Range = 13-17 years; 52% girls). A latent growth modeling approach was employed. Specifically, latent growth curve modeling was conducted to estimate the trajectories of the seven key constructs, with Wald tests assessing differences in growth factors across constructs. Slope correlations between attachment and maladaptive behaviors were examined, and Fisher's z-transformation was applied to compare the strength of these slope-level associations.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>(1) All three types of attachment showed declining trajectories, with their slopes positively correlated. (2) Child-father and child-mother attachment declined more steeply than peer attachment. (3) All four maladaptive behaviors demonstrated increasing trends, with their slopes positively correlated. (4) Problematic internet use increased more rapidly than depression and academic procrastination, and social anxiety rose faster than academic procrastination. (5) The slopes of all three types of attachment were negatively correlated with the slopes of all four types of maladaptive behaviors. Notably, child-father and child-mother attachment demonstrated stronger associations with maladjustment trajectories than peer attachment.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>In addition to providing longitudinal evidence that adolescents' interpersonal relationships and maladjustment have been worsening during a time of instability, the study highlights the pivotal role of parent-child relationships and the dynamic interplay between the trajectories of adolescents' social relationships and behavioral problems.

Gaining insight into how families experience these interventions may be a crucial step in obtaining more understanding of what does and does not work for clients in forensic youth care. The current study investigated the experiences of juveniles and caregivers with Forensic Outpatient Systemic Therapy (FAST), an intensive intervention aiming to reduce juvenile antisocial behavior. The study examined how juveniles and caregivers evaluated FAST in terms of the process of setting treatment goals, helpful components, points of improvement, their therapist, and a blended version of FAST (FASTb) that is partially offered online.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>Semi-structured interviews were conducted after treatment termination with 24 participants from 16 families (9 juveniles, 15 caregivers) who participated in a randomized controlled trial or quasi-experimental study on the effectiveness of FAST. A purposive sampling method was used to yield a diverse sample and varied experiences. Thematic analysis was performed in three phases.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Treatment goals were generally set collaboratively and agreement was often achieved, but juveniles were not always involved in setting the treatment goals or in treatment in general. Evaluations of FAST's success were varied but generally positive. Most helpful treatment components were conversations with the therapist and, to caregivers, program specific components. Although most participants evaluated their therapist positively, some reported the need for more responsivity. FASTb increased treatment accessibility for some caregivers, but most participants preferred face-to-face appointments.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>This study provides insight into how FAST is perceived and factors influencing engagement, yielding several clinical implications for systemic treatment in forensic youth care. First, building a strong therapeutic alliance is important. Juveniles benefit from a kind, activity-based approach, whereas caregivers value therapist empathy. Given the severity of antisocial behavior in FAST's target group, initial safety interventions may be necessary before being able to invest in the therapeutic alliance. Second, therapists should persist in engaging juveniles, for instance, by incorporating (physical) activities. Third, blended care may improve accessibility. Therefore, it is important to discuss its potential with families throughout treatment.</p>","PeriodicalId":9934,"journal":{"name":"Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and Mental Health","volume":"19 1","pages":"71"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2025-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12225379/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144559349","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
