This study investigated the demographic predictors of trauma in adolescent females. The role of trauma in the outcomes of psychopathology were examined. Additionally, alcohol and substance use were examined as a product of trauma and leading cause of forensic status. Finally, the mental health of the present sample was compared to paired national averages. Participants included 35 adolescent females currently in the juvenile justice system. Results indicate that the present forensic sample demonstrated significantly worse mental health than non-forensic youth. Additionally, those with a history of trauma showed worse outcomes than youth with fewer traumas experienced. Several demographic factors were predictors of trauma, and trauma in turn predicted alcohol abuse. Those with a history of trauma showed significantly poorer behavioral and academic functioning in addition to mental health difficulties. Implications for the juvenile justice system and mental health treatment are discussed.
本研究调查了青春期女性创伤的人口统计学预测因素。研究了创伤在精神病理学结果中的作用。此外，还将酒精和物质使用作为创伤的产物和法医状况的主要原因进行了研究。最后，将本样本的心理健康状况与配对的全国平均水平进行了比较。参与者包括35名目前处于少年司法系统中的青春期女性。结果表明，目前的法医样本的心理健康状况明显比非法医青少年更差。此外，有创伤史的青少年比经历创伤较少的青少年表现出更差的结果。几个人口统计学因素是创伤的预测因素，而创伤反过来又预测了酒精滥用。有创伤史的青少年除了心理健康问题外，在行为和学业功能方面也明显较差。文中讨论了对少年司法系统和心理健康治疗的启示。
