“…Detained adolescents with mental health problems are at increased risk of a range of adverse outcomes including premature mortality, suicide and death from other causes Rodway, Norrington-Moore, While et al, 2011), drug and alcohol problems (Chassin, Knight, Vargas-Chanes, Losoya, & Naranjo, 2009;McClelland, Elkington, Teplin, & Abram, 2004;Neighbors, Kempton, & Forehand, 1992;Palmer, Jinks, & Hatcher, 2010;Sacks et al, 2009), and increased rates of reoffending (Hollander & Turner, 1985;Ramchand, Morral, & Becker, 2009;Walter, Wiesbeck, Dittmann, & Graf, 2011). Thus, documenting the extent of psychiatric morbidity in different juvenile justice settings can assist in service development, setting priorities for funding, resource allocation, and treatment interventions (Brink, 2005;Quinn & Shera, 2009;Rodway, Norrington-Moore, Appleby, & Shaw, 2011;Sirdifield, Gojkovic, Brooker, & Ferriter, 2009). Furthermore, treating and managing these disorders will impact on public health, as the vast majority of juveniles in custody will be released back to their host communities.…”

We investigated the mental health of 232 consecutive receptions of juvenile boys aged 15-17 years in youth detention centers of two Chinese provinces and compared with juveniles in community settings. Interviews were conducted by psychiatrists using the Schedule for Affective Disorders and Schizophrenia for School-Age Children to diagnose DSM-IV psychiatric disorders. Of the 232 boys in detention, 188 (81.0%) met criteria for any psychiatric disorder, with 186 (80.2%) having a disruptive behavior disorder and 52 (22.4%) having a substance use disorder (SUD). High levels of comorbidity were observed with 38.8% being diagnosed with at least two disorders. The high absolute and relative risks of psychiatric disorders and SUDs suggest that the identification and treatment of such disorders in juvenile detention is a priority for service development.

“…The therapy, which was originally developed for patients with borderline personality disorder [47], has been increasingly applied to forensic sample populations living in residential care settings or correctional facilities [48, 49]. Fundamental to the development of DBT is a biosocial theory that conceptualises a patient’s emotional dysregulation as the result of a biological tendency toward emotional vulnerability in conjunction with an invalidating rearing environment [50].…”

BackgroundIn Europe, the number of females exhibiting oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) and conduct disorder (CD) is growing. Many of these females live in youth welfare institutions. Consequently, there is a great need for evidence-based interventions within youth welfare settings. A recently developed approach targeting the specific needs of girls with ODD and CD in residential care is START NOW. The aim of this group-based behavioural skills training programme is to specifically enhance emotional regulation capacities to enable females with CD or ODD to appropriately deal with daily-life demands. It is intended to enhance psychosocial adjustment and well-being as well as reduce oppositional and aggressive behaviour. We present the study protocol (version 4.1; 10 February 2016) of the FemNAT-CD intervention trial titled ‘Group-Based Treatment of Adolescent Female Conduct Disorders: The Central Role of Emotion Regulation’.Methods/designThe study is a prospective, confirmatory, cluster-randomised, parallel-group, multi-centre, randomised controlled trial with 128 institutionalised female adolescents who fulfil the diagnostic criteria of ODD and/or CD. Institutions/wards will be randomised either to provide the 12-week skills training as an add-on intervention or to provide treatment as usual. Once the first cycle is completed, each institution will run a second cycle with the opposite condition. Primary endpoints are the pre-post change in number of CD/ODD symptoms as assessed by a standardised, semi-structured psychiatric interview (Kiddie Schedule for Affective Disorders and Schizophrenia for School-Age Children–Present and Lifetime, CD/ODD section) between baseline and the end of intervention, as well as between baseline and a 3-month follow-up point. Secondary objectives include pre-post change in CD/ODD-related outcome measures, most notably emotional regulation on a behavioural and neurobiological level after completion of START NOW compared with treatment as usual.DiscussionTo our knowledge, this study is the first to date to systematically investigate the effectiveness of an adapted integrative psychosocial intervention designed for female adolescents with ODD and CD in youth welfare settings.Trial registrationGerman Clinical Trials Register (DRKS) identifier: DRKS00007524.

A qualitative study of female juvenile offenders' experience with revocation to a detention facility was conducted. Ten female youths were interviewed about their experiences at the detention facility and with revocation. Through a grounded theory qualitative analysis of structured interviews, themes were identified and a theory developed. Categories include precipitating environmental stressors, positive and negative effects of being in the juvenile justice system, risk factors for revocation, and protective factors reducing revocation.
