Although mental health and correctional programs for juveniles house similar populations, their approaches to behavioral management can be quite different. This difference is evident in the use of isolation and restraint. Both of these interventions are effective behavioral management tools but are subject to abuse if not closely monitored. The authors, drawing from their experiences as mental health consultants to juvenile correctional programs and as expert witnesses in litigation, review the wide range of isolation and restraint practices in correctional programs and make recommendations for supervision and standardization.
尽管针对青少年的心理健康项目和教养项目所服务的人群相似，但它们在行为管理方法上可能有很大不同。这种差异在隔离和约束措施的使用上很明显。这两种干预措施都是有效的行为管理工具，但如果不进行密切监测，就容易被滥用。作者凭借其作为青少年教养项目心理健康顾问和诉讼专家证人的经验，审视了教养项目中广泛的隔离和约束措施，并就监督和标准化提出了建议。
