Case Report: Death penalty versus indefinite imprisonment in Japan: a case note of two court judgments involving autism spectrum disorder and autistic traits
The World Psychiatric Association condemns the sentencing to death and execution of individuals with mental illness or intellectual and developmental disabilities. However, in Japan, death sentences have been confirmed in individuals diagnosed with delusional disorders and autism spectrum disorder (ASD). We report two Japanese court cases in which medical professionals with ASD or autistic traits committed multiple homicides. Although ASD charact…

The "Psychiatric symptoms" and "Life disorders" components of the "severe and chronic" criteria were significantly associated with hospitalization outcomes in MTS Act wards
Responding to the Covid-19 outbreak as a therapeutic community in a forensic psychiatric ward in Japan–A reconsideration of the role of therapeutic community in disasters

The "Non-Three Cs" Karaoke Project, with infection preve…

A cross-sectional, retrospective prescription survey at the time of discharge was conducted on 2027 patients with schizophrenia from 69 Japanese hospitals. We e…

Method: Using the Structured Assessment of Protective Factors (SAPRO…
Death Penalty and Psychiatric Evaluation in Japan
Japan recently ordered a string of death sentences for offenders with mental illness. Based on the verdicts, we describe cases where one or more psychiatrists conducted psychiatric evaluations for several months and testified in lay judge courts. We compared these cases with those in which the death penalty was avoided, or the mandating treatment order was applied. Additionally, we discuss a trend toward more severe punishment and Japanese cultur…
