“…Finally, racial/ethnic minorities are disproportionately represented in both the adult and the juvenile justice systems (e.g., Braithwaite, Conerly, Robillard, Woodring, & Stephens, 2003;Feldstein Ewing, Venner, Mead, & 242 T. Hoyt et al Bryan, 2011). Research suggests that cultural minorities report higher rates of IPV (Field & Caetano, 2004), with Hispanics reporting rates 1.5 to 2.4 times greater than Caucasians (Straus & Smith, 1990).…”

Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a serious forensic and clinicalproblem throughout the United States. Research aimed at defining and differentiating subgroups of IPV offenders using standardized personality instruments may eventually help with matching treatments to specific individuals to reduce recidivism. The current study used a convenience sample of court-ordered IPV offenders to explore whether the presence of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) can reliably differentiate this population in terms of personality characteristics and clinical symptoms. Profile analysis showed meaningful differences between PTSD (n = 22), non-PTSD (n = 43), and nontrauma (n = 13) groups on a variety of Millon Clinical Multiaxial Inventory and Personality Assessment Inventory personality and clinical scales. The PTSD group reported significantly less IPV than the non-PTSD and nontrauma groups, as well Tim Hoyt is now at Madigan

“…One factor that contributes to juvenile arrest and detention is substance use (Braithwaite, Conerly, Robillard, Stephens, & Woodring, 2003), which is closely associated with violence and recidivism. According to Braithwaite et al, (2003), adolescents with repeat admissions were more likely to have recently used PCP when compared with those with first admission.…”

“…According to Braithwaite et al, (2003), adolescents with repeat admissions were more likely to have recently used PCP when compared with those with first admission. We know that adolescence is a time when impulsivity and sensation seeking, combined with a lack of orientation toward future consequences are likely to be pronounced, (Robbin & Bryan, 2004); however, this is especially true for high-risk youth who have been exposed to violence.…”

“…Most adolescents often underestimate their chances for negative outcomes (Quadrel, Fischoff, & Davis, 1993), thus making risk behaviors, such as alcohol use, drug use, and cigarette smoking more likely (Robbins & Bryan, 2004). For youth who have been exposed to violence, and who have been described as persistently violent, they were two to three times more likely to engage in alcohol, cigarette, or marijuana use on a weekly basis, more likely to have tried cocaine, and more likely to be a poly-drug user (Ellickson et al, 1996; Braithwaite et. al, 2003).…”

Juvenile crime and violent victimization continue to be significant social problems (Fitzpatrick, Piko, Wright, & LaGory, 2005); in that, adolescents, females in particular, are likely to participate in health related risk behaviors as result of having been victimized or exposed to a violent environment. Specifically, abuse, neglect, sexual molestation, poverty, and witnessing violence are well known risk factors for the development of trauma-related psychopathology and poor outcomes relative to delinquency, drug and alcohol abuse, and HIV risk behaviors

“…Several largescale longitudinal studies of delinquency (Dembo et al, 1991;Loeber & Farrington, 2001;Moffitt, 1997) highlight the important role of substance abuse, particularly earlyonset abuse (Braithwaite, Conerly, Robilliard, Stephens, & Woodring, 2003;Gordon et al, 2004;Loeber & Farrington, 2001), in the development of young offenders and the impact that substance abuse has in delaying the trajectory out of offending. The work of Moffitt (1997) on lifetime delinquency (as opposed to time-limited or adolescent-onset delinquency) reveals strong relationships between early deviance, substance use, and offending behavior.…”
