Filter by:In the current study the effectiveness of the Dutch diversion measure Halt is investigated using a randomized controlled trial. Because of the thorough scientific substantiation of the intervention theory, it is hypothesized that receiving the Halt-intervention will lead to less recidivism in comparison to receiving no intervention.
The goal of this type I hybrid effectiveness-implementation trial is to test a family strengthening (FS) model delivered through multiple family groups (MFG) combined with a virtual peer mentoring program called TeenAge Health Consultants (Virtual TAHC) aimed at addressing emotional and behavioral problems among youth born in the U.S. to parents resettled as refugees. The specific aims of the study are: Aim 1: To systematically adapt an evidence-based family strengthening (FS) model delivered through multiple family groups (MFG) combined with a peer mentoring program (Virtual TAHC) (Goal 1). Aim 2: To assess preliminary short- and long-term impact of the combination intervention (MFG + Virtual TAHC) on behavioral emotional disorders (aggressive behavior, antisocial behaviors, anxiety, depression, and Posttraumatic Stress Disorder [PTSD]) related to intergenerational trauma among SGRC in the trial (Goal 2). Aim 3: Utilizing mixed methods and applying the Exploration, Preparation, Implementation, Sustainment (EPIS) framework, examine implementation strategies, facilitators, and barriers of the RRF4H intervention (Goal 3). Participants will receive: 1. Family strengthening intervention delivered through multiple family groups (MFG) where children and one of their biological parents will participate in 16 weekly group sessions to discuss common problems and how to address them. 2. The youth in the intervention will participate in a peer mentorship program called TeenAge Health Consultants (TAHC) consisting of 16 weekly virtual sessions where they interact with other youth to learn about important topics including how to deal with conflict, stay out of trouble, deal with stress, avoid drugs and other topics. Researchers will compare the intervention group to a control group that will receive the usual care to see if the intervention group shows improvement in symptoms compared to the usual care group.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness and mediators of Forensic Outpatient Systemic Therapy (FAST).
The goal of this clinical trial was to learn about the effect of maltreatment on psychological and brain characteristics in a group of children. The main question it aims to answer are: which are the clinical characteristics of maltreated children before and after a psychological intervention? what changes in brain emotional processing after a psychological intervention? and what is the effect of serotonin transporter variants after a psychological therapy? Participants were assessed before and after intervention with: - clinical measures of anxiety, depression post-traumatic stress and callous-unemotional traits - functional neuroimaging techniques to measure brain activity. - A sample of buccal epithelial cells to obtain information on serotonin transporter. Researchers will compare maltreated children with a group on non-maltreated children to see if there are differences on psychological characteristics and on brain activity before treatment.
The model of care for forensic psychiatry in Italy was changed by law (Law 81/2014) so that the six legacy secure forensic hospitals (Judicial Psychiatric Hospitals, OPG) were closed and new secure community residences for the execution of security measures (REMS) were opened in each of the 20 regions of Italy. This transition was in place by 2015. This observational study evaluates the health gains for patients both previously in OPGs and those admitted first to REMS. Health gains assessed include recovery measured by symptoms, function, need for therapeutic security and recovery of legal autonomy.
The aim of this study is to explore if individual CFT-based intervention with exposure training in virtual reality decreases conduct disorder symptoms and callous-unemoitonal traits , as well as increases subjective emotional welbeing among 15-to-20 year-old male prisoners and boys placed to state's residential schools. We will also study factors that may predict adherence to the intervention. These factors include mental well-being, motivation, and working alliance. In addition, we will evaluate the costs of the program.
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether blended Forensic Ambulant Systemic Therapy (FASTb) is equally effective as regular FAST (FASTr).
A pharmacoimaging study of oxytcoin in antisocial personality disorder and psychopathy
Studies on Antisocial Personality Disorder (ASPD), in which criminal behaviors, aggression and anger behaviors are frequently seen, are very rare. Developed by Nosrat Peseschkian, positive psychotherapy is an eclectic therapy approach born from the psychodynamic approach, existential-humanist approach, behavioral approach and intercultural therapy approach. Psychodynamic psychotherapy is a humanistic, psychodynamic, resource-focused, conflict-solving, integrative and intercultural approach that has its own unique intervention methods as well as the features of other therapy theories. In this study, it was aimed to determine the primary and secondary abilities of individuals with criminal and non-criminal antisocial personality disorder within the scope of positive psychotherapy, to compare these abilities with respect to healthy individuals, and to examine the effects on crime, aggression behavior and anger levels.
