摘要

参与司法的青年的心理健康障碍患病率高于普通人群中的青年。尽管心理健康是青少年司法系统中一个紧迫的当代问题，但美国只有不到一半的州要求在青少年司法系统对青少年进行心理健康筛查。在所有50个州使用心理健康筛查工具的必要性应该成为国家的优先事项。马萨诸塞州青少年筛查工具第2版（MAYSI-2）是推荐的筛查工具，应在全国范围内采用。目前，在要求使用筛查工具的24个州中，有21个州使用MAYSI-2。此外，在少年司法系统的切入点和过渡点，它被认为具有最丰富的经验证据。

Mandatory Mental Health Screening for Justice-Involved Youth: A National Priority

The prevalence of mental health disorders is higher among justice-involved youth than youth in the general population. Despite mental health being a pressing contemporary issue in the juvenile justice system, fewer than half of the states in the United States mandate the use of a mental health screening for youth in the juvenile justice system. The need to utilize a mental health screening tool in all 50 states should be a national priority. The Massachusetts Youth Screening Instrument-Version 2 (MAYSI-2) is the recommended screening tool that should be adopted nationally. Currently, 21 of the 24 states that mandate the use of a screening tool utilize MAYSI-2. Furthermore, it is recognized as having the most empirical evidence as an instrument at the juvenile justice system’s entry and transitional points.
