Download or read book Treating and Preventing Adolescent Mental Health Disorders written by Dwight L. Evans and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017-07-12 with total page 921 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sponsored by the Adolescent Mental Health Initiative of the Annenberg Public Policy Center (APPC) of the University of Pennsylvania and the Annenberg Foundation Trust at Sunnylands Trust, Treating and Preventing Adolescent Mental Health Disorders, Second Edition, provides a major update since the first edition in 2005. It addresses the current state of knowledge about the major mental health disorders that emerge during adolescence, including updated DSM-5 diagnostic criteria. Here, six commissions established by the APPC and the Sunnylands Trust pool their expertise on adolescent anxiety, schizophrenia, substance use disorders, depression and bipolar disorders, eating disorders, and suicidal behavior in sections that thoroughly define each disorder, outline and assess available treatments, discuss prevention strategies, and suggest a research agenda based on what we know and don't yet know about these various conditions. Two additional behavioral disorders-gambling and internet addiction--are covered in this second edition. As a meaningful counterpoint to its primary focus on mental illness, the volume also incorporates the latest research from a seventh commission--on positive youth development--which addresses how we can fully prepare young people to be happy and successful throughout their lives. Concluding chapters discuss overarching issues regarding the behavioral and mental health of adolescents: overcoming the stigma of mental illness, the research, policy, and practice context for the delivery of evidence-based treatments, and the development of a more robust agenda to advance adolescent health. Integrating the work of eminent scholars in both psychology and psychiatry, this work will be an essential volume for academics and practicing clinicians and will serve as a wake-up call to mental health professionals and policy makers alike about the state of our nation's response to the needs of adolescents with mental disorders.

This book was released on 2002 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examines the gender specific needs of adolescent female offenders in treatment programs. the population sampled consisted of boys and girls in school based day or residential programs operated by the Associated Marine Institute Inc. Focus groups were conducted to gain insight into the specific needs of the adolescents in the programs. From the focus group interviews emerged a self-report survey designed to examine the needs of adolescent offenders. the survey consisted of sixty-eight questions that were organized into seven categories, to examine the differences in the reported responses of boys and girls. the seven categories identified were education/vocational needs, personal safety, sexual practices, alcohol and drugs, anger and depression, religious and spiritual needs, and interpersonal relationships and support systems. Data collected revealed significant reported differences in several categories. Findings indicated that girls reported they run-away from home significantly more than boys, and experience more sexual and physical victimization. In contrast, boys reported significant differences in drinking and drug use than the patterns of behavior reported by girls. Both sexes reported having problems with anger although girls reported the problem in higher percentages than boys. Girls expressed more interest in anger management classes and counseling. This study identifies some significant differences in patterns of behavior reported by boys and girls in the AMI programs. the findings support the need for a gender specific treatment approach in juvenile justice.

The ASC Division on Corrections & Sentencing Handbook Series will publish volumes on topics ranging from violence risk assessment to specialty courts for drug users, veterans, or the mentally ill. Each thematic volume focuses on a single topical issue that intersects with corrections and sentencing research.
