We conducted a narrative review of literature focused on Latinx youth in the Juvenile Justice System (JJS). The goal of this review was to identify the behavioral health needs and social and cultural factors that place Latinx youth at disproportionate risk for contact and entrenchment with the JJS. Ecodevelopmental Theory (ET) was used as the guiding framework for this review, and a total of 16 peer reviewed articles from Embase, PsychINFO, and Pubmed were collected, analyzed, and summarized. Consistent with ET, we organized themes from the literature into the following sections: (a) microsystem (i.e., family, psychiatric care, sexual health care, school); (b) mesosystem (i.e., family and social environment); (c) exosystem (i.e., family and neighborhood context, and bicultural stress); and (d) macrosystem (i.e., generational status, cultural stress, social class). Sociopolitical disparities, such as disproportionate sentencing by social class and trauma stemming from political violence, and intersections of cultural variables (e.g., generational status and acculturation) should be closely considered in any prevention and intervention efforts targeting Latinx youths. More research to understand and address the unique needs of this population is also needed.
我们对聚焦于少年司法系统（JJS）中拉丁裔青少年的文献进行了叙述性综述。本次综述的目的是确定行为健康需求以及使拉丁裔青少年与少年司法系统接触并深陷其中的风险过高的社会和文化因素。生态发展理论（ET）被用作本次综述的指导框架，我们从Embase、PsychINFO和Pubmed数据库中总共收集、分析并总结了16篇经过同行评审的文章。与生态发展理论一致，我们将文献中的主题归纳为以下几个部分：（a）微观系统（即家庭、精神科护理、性健康护理、学校）；（b）中观系统（即家庭和社会环境）；（c）外部系统（即家庭和邻里环境，以及双文化压力）；以及（d）宏观系统（即代际地位、文化压力、社会阶层）。在针对拉丁裔青少年的任何预防和干预工作中，都应密切考虑社会政治差异，例如因社会阶层导致的量刑不公以及政治暴力造成的创伤，以及文化变量的交叉影响（例如代际地位和文化适应）。还需要开展更多研究以了解和满足这一群体的独特需求。
