People with language difficulties cannot face challenges related to social skills. Those language disorders affect academic, work environments, and social interaction, leading to maladaptive and aggressive behaviors. Young inmates are at high risk of experiencing unrecognized language deficiencies. It is, therefore, necessary to analyze linguistic pathologies that can influence criminal behavior (drugs possession/consumption and gender violence crimes). There are many standardized tests to evaluate and detect language difficulties in adults in English. However, there are relatively few options in Spanish; there are no tests that evaluate language qualitatively and in depth. Most of the research is conducted with children and adolescents.
To propose a reliable coding system for the correction and interpretation of narratives (essays and narratives) from the Battery for the Evaluation of Writing Processes (PROESC) in the prisoners charged of drugs possession or consumption and gender violence crimes.
The sample was composed of 287 men.
They completed the Demographic, Offense, and Behavioral Interview in Institutions, the International Personality Disorders Examination (IPDE), and PROESC.
We found that the proposed coding system presented high concordance, that is, high inter-rater reliability.
The classification system for the correction and interpretation of narratives was shown to be reliable.
有语言障碍的人无法应对与社交技能相关的挑战。这些语言障碍会影响学术、工作环境和社交互动，导致适应不良和攻击性行为。年轻囚犯极易出现未被识别的语言缺陷。因此，有必要分析可能影响犯罪行为（持有/使用毒品和性别暴力犯罪）的语言病理学。在英语中，有许多标准化测试可用于评估和检测成年人的语言障碍。然而，西班牙语的相关测试相对较少；没有能够定性和深入评估语言的测试。大多数研究是针对儿童和青少年进行的。
为因持有或使用毒品及性别暴力犯罪而被指控的囚犯，从写作过程评估量表（PROESC）中的记叙文（文章和叙述）的批改和解读提出一个可靠的编码系统。
样本由287名男性组成。
他们完成了机构中的人口统计学、犯罪和行为访谈、国际人格障碍检查（IPDE）以及PROESC。
我们发现所提出的编码系统具有高度一致性，即评分者间信度高。
记叙文批改和解读的分类系统被证明是可靠的。
