The Mediating Role of Alcohol Use Between Adverse Childhood Experiences and Delinquency Among Youth in the Legal System
Rates of alcohol use and exposure to adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are elevated among youth in the legal system (YILS) compared to their non-legally involved peers. Exposure to ACEs has been associated with later alcohol use and delinquency, and YILS often engage in delinquent behavior while under the influence of alcohol. The associations between ACEs, alcohol use, and delinquency among YILS are complex and multidirectional; research has …
Reinterpreting Basic Ideas in Delivering Correctional Services
The United States’ correctional system is rife with treatment service delivery complications, resulting in significant gaps in access to care. As the field advocates for more substantial systemic changes, there is a need to think creatively about how to maximize available resources and skills to treat underserved clients with often complex and diverse needs. One strategy is to make better use of brief, intensive, and concentrated (BIC) interventi…
The behavioral health needs of legally involved sexual minority female adolescents
BACKGROUND: Sexual minority (SM) female adolescents involved in the legal system experience marginalization and health inequities. This study examined the differences in psychosocial functioning and risk behaviors among legally involved SM and heterosexual female adolescents to better understand their behavioral health needs. We hypothesized that SM females, as individuals at the intersection of two marginalized groups, would demonstrate greater …
A Scoping Review of Trauma Treatments among Legally Involved Adolescents with Learning, Cognitive, or Intellectual Disabilities
Youth involved in the legal system (YILS) experience higher rates of posttraumatic stress and learning, cognitive, or intellectual disabilities (LCID) than their peers without legal involvement. Trauma-focused treatments often require significant cognitive skills that may present difficulties for youth with LCID; this mismatch could impact the effectiveness of treatment with this subgroup of youth. Although evidence-based trauma treatments exist …
Feasibility and Acceptability of a Culturally Adapted Family-Based Telehealth Intervention for Latine Families Impacted by the Child Welfare System
Despite the well-documented overrepresentation of Latine adolescents in the child welfare system and inequities in their behavioral health outcomes, Latine families experience significant barriers to accessing evidence-based behavioral health care. Limited culturally- and linguistically responsive family-based telehealth services contribute to lower service access rates for Latine systems-impacted adolescents. The present pilot study addresses th…
Criminal Justice Staff's Professional Quality of Life and Interactions with Justice-Involved Individuals
Criminal justice staff work in a challenging setting and yet are often expected to promote positive change in justice-involved individuals. This study examined the 1) types of supportive interactions criminal justice staff engage in with justice-involved individuals, 2) association between staff's professional quality of life (i.e., burnout, secondary traumatic stress, compassion satisfaction) and their endorsement of supportive interactions, and…
Implementing Quality Improvement Initiatives Within Community Psychiatry
Implementation of quality improvement (QI) initiatives within community mental health settings is crucial to addressing equity-related issues affecting mental health services delivery, including for co-occurring substance use disorders. Given the growing recognition of QI interventions as an effective framework to facilitate structural change within systems of care, it is important to equip mental health providers with the knowledge and ability t…
Recommendations for the use of telepsychology in psychology-law practice and research
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent impact on psychological work, Division 41 of the American Psychological Association convened a taskforce to provide guidance to its membership regarding the use of technology for practice and research at the intersection of psychology and law. Drawing from existing research in psychology-law and beyond, as well as the first-hand experience of taskforce members, this document outlines foundationa…
Risk and Protective Factors Associated with Self-Cutting Behavior Among Adolescents at First Contact with the Juvenile Court
Adolescents involved in juvenile legal system are at increased risk for self-cutting behavior, however, correlates associated with elevated risk remain underresearched, particularly among youth with first involvement with the court. This study utilized an epidemiological two-year longitudinal study involving 401 adolescents at first contact with the court ( M age = 14.47; SD age = 1.94 years; 43% female; 42% Latinx/Hispanic) and an involved careg…
The Next Generation of Clinical-Psychological Science
The field of clinical-psychological science exists in a broader field of psychology that is increasingly acknowledged as embedded in racist and white-supremacist history. In the production of clinical-psychological science, the clinical science model predominates as one of the most influential scientific voices that emphasizes the value of rigorous scientific theory, training, and praxis. We highlight some of the ways in which the clinical scienc…
Agreement between Youth Self-Report and Biospecimen-Confirmed Substance Use
Peer, substance use, and race-related factors associated with recidivism among first-time justice-involved youth
OBJECTIVES: Peer deviancy and substance-related consequences are dynamic criminogenic needs associated with increased risk of recidivism for justice-involved youth. Most prior research in this area, however, is based on samples of primarily male youth charged with delinquent offenses. Because identification of dynamic criminogenic needs is essential to delinquency risk reduction efforts, the purpose of this study was to examine the role of peer d…
Researchers’ Perspectives on Digital Mental Health Intervention Co-Design With Marginalized Community Stakeholder Youth and Families
Co-design of digital mental health technology with youth and families is a relatively new but growing approach to intervention development. In this perspective article, researchers used collaborative reflexivity through duoethnography methodology to reflect and report on experiences and lessons learned conducting co-designed projects with marginalized youth and families. Researchers engaged in written reflective dialogue regarding projects design…
Bringing juvenile justice and public health systems together to meet the sexual and reproductive health needs of justice-involved youth
18) with juvenile justice (JJ) and public health (PH) system stakeholders between December 2015 and January 2017. Results suggest both PH and JJ stakeholders perceive CINI youth as having substantial, largely unmet SRH care needs due to a lack of services, policies, or procedures to address these needs. Barriers to implementing programs and policies to improve SRH services for this population include limited resources (e.g., staffing, time); perc…
The Ethical Implications of Using Social Media to Engage and Retain Justice-Involved Youth in Behavioral Health Research
Given its popularity among youth ages 13-17, social media is a promising avenue for engaging and retaining historically hard-to-reach youth in longitudinal research. Social media use in longitudinal research involving youth, however, has preceded development of best practices for ethical use. This article describes the ethical challenges and considerations of using social media to engage and retain youth within the context of a randomized control…
The Prospective Impact of Family Functioning and Parenting Practices on Court-Involved Youth’s Substance Use and Delinquent Behavior
The comparability of the visual and verbal versions of the Inclusion of Community in Self scale
AIMS: Many factors affect the utility and practicality of measures in longitudinal studies characterized by transient participants such as those caught in the cycle of incarceration. The current study evaluated the psychometric equivalency of a visual and a verbal version of a single-item connectedness measure; the aim was to determine whether the different formats can be used interchangeably depending on feasibility. METHODS: = 35 years, SD = 10…
Changes in Jail Inmates' community connectedness across the period of incarceration
Jails bring inmates into proximity with one another and separate them from the community. Because inmates' connectedness to one another and to the community influences post-release functioning, understanding risk factors for maladaptive shifts in connectedness may inform interventions. The current study examined changes in jail inmates' (N=203) connectedness to the community at large and to the criminal community, and predictors of individual dif…
Self-stigma among criminal offenders
Those involved in the criminal justice system are swiftly identified as "criminals." Receipt of this label may promote self-stigma, a process wherein criminal stereotypes are internalized and produce negative psychological and behavioral consequences. Research has yet to identify which types of offenders are at risk for, or in contrast, protected from, experiencing self-stigma. The current study examines whether risk and protective factors predic…
Changes in inmates' substance use and dependence from pre-incarceration to one year post-release
Connectedness to the criminal community and the community at large predicts 1‐year post‐release outcomes among felony offenders
Connectedness to one's community relates to positive psychological and behavioral outcomes. But what implications do connectedness to distinct communities—the criminal community and the community at large—have for inmates about to be released from jail? This study ( N = 383) prospectively examined connectedness to the criminal community and community at large prior to release from jail and functioning at 1‐year post‐release. Connectedness to the …
Does substance misuse moderate the relationship between criminal thinking and recidivism
Children’s Proneness to Shame and Guilt Predict Risky and Illegal Behaviors in Young Adulthood
Evaluating the content and reception of messages from incarcerated parents to their children
In the current study, children's reactions to video messages from their incarcerated parents were evaluated. Previous research has yielded mixed results when it examined the impact of contact between incarcerated parents and their children; one reason for these mixed results may be a lack of attention to the quality of contact. This is the first study to examine the actual content and quality of a remote form of contact in this population. Partic…
