Developing a youth focused service-hub alternative to the police station
Offending behaviour and mental ill-health among young people
Adolescence marks a challenging confluence, with the frequent onset of both offending behaviour and mental ill-health. Although repeated offending behaviour is limited to a small minority of young people, it is disproportionately associated with poorer life course outcomes, social costs, and community concerns. Each year, around 30 million people are incarcerated in the world’s prisons [...]
Researching the researchers
Despite working in the same environment, research support staff report experiencing significantly less psychosocial stressors compared to postgraduate students, early-middle career researchers and senior researchers. Future research that targets key modifiable stressors associated with psychological distress including work organization and job content, and work-life balance could improve the overall mental health and wellbeing of mental health re…
Exploring presentation differences in multi-cultural youth seeking assistance for mental health problems
In help-seeking mainstream youth populations, cultural differences across clinical and environmental factors appear to be minimal
Mental health in elite athletes
Mental health symptoms and disorders are common among elite athletes, may have sport related manifestations within this population and impair performance. Mental health cannot be separated from physical health, as evidenced by mental health symptoms and disorders increasing the risk of physical injury and delaying subsequent recovery. There are no evidence or consensus based guidelines for diagnosis and management of mental health symptoms and di…
The Abusive Behaviour by Children- Indices (ABC-I)
But All Kids Yell at Their Parents, Don't They
Child-to-parent abuse has been hampered by a lack of attention to what behaviors are commonly perceived as abusive and a poor understanding of when children's behavior stops being difficult, but normative, and becomes abusive. This study investigated what Australian parents and young people perceived as abusive behavior by children toward parents. Convenience samples of (a) parents of young people aged 14 to 25 years ( n = 201) and (b) young peop…

The Mental Health of Elite Athletes
Age of onset of mental disorders and use of mental health services
Purpose of review. In this review, we provide an update of recent studies on the age of onset (AOO) of the major mental disorders, with a special focus on the availability and use of services providing prevention and early intervention. Recent findings. The studies reviewed here confirm previous reports on the AOO of the major mental disorders. Although the behaviour disorders and specific anxiety disorders emerge during childhood, most of the hi…
Stalkers and their Victims
Stalking has moved from being a novel area for study to become a core area of concern for mental health professionals, lawyers and other members of the criminal justice system. It has emerged as a significant social problem which not only commands considerable public attention but is now, in many jurisdictions, a specific form of criminal offence. This new edition brings the reader completely up-to-date with the explosion in published research an…
Stalkers and their Victims

This absorbing and informative book draws on the authors' extensive experience of working with stalkers and their victims in the clinical setting. Topics covered include: • The growing recognition of stalking as an issue of public, legal and scientific concern • The definition, classification and epidemiology of stalking • The impact on …
