“…As only 2 studies assessed psychiatric disorders in detained adolescents by including both parental and youth information, there is at present little evidence to elaborate on this issue. However, as substantial discrepancy between informants was found, 46,59 the clinical importance of these scarce findings should not be underestimated. Further study of this issue should therefore be a priority.…”

“…When impairment was included, the relative differences were comparable with those based on criteria only (Table 2). 59 In addition, among the 35 male adolescents who did not self-report a disorder (without impairment), 57% of their parents did. 59 Colins et al 46 interviewed 115 parents out of a sample of 150 detained Belgian male adolescents on ADHD, ODD, and CD (DISC-IV).…”

Objective: To provide a best estimate of the prevalence of psychiatric disorders among detained male adolescents, with particular emphasis on impairment, multi-informant assessment, and race or ethnicity. Method:Computer-assisted searches were executed to identify relevant studies.Results: Fifteen studies using adolescents as informants met inclusion criteria (n = 3401), of which only 2 reported within a subsample on parent-derived diagnoses. The mean prevalence of any disorder was 69.9% (95% CI 69.5% to 70.3%); with conduct disorder occurring most frequently (46.4%, 95% CI 45.6% to 47.3%), followed by substance use disorder (45.1%, 95% CI 44.6% to 45.5%), oppositional defiant disorder (19.8%, 95% CI 19.2% to 20.3%), and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (13.5%, 95% CI 13.2% to 13.9%). Although lower, rates for internalizing disorders were still substantial, with any anxiety disorder found in 15.9% (95% CI 15.6% to 16.1%), major depression in 12.0% (95% CI 11.7% to 12.2%), and posttraumatic stress disorder in 9.6% (95% CI 9.2% to 10.0%). Three studies reported on psychotic disorders, finding low rates (1.35%, 95% CI 1.32% to 1.39%). Estimates of prevalence were only marginally different when impairment was not required, while consistency between adolescents and parents was poor. Findings on the relations between race or ethnicity were too scarce and inconsistent to interpret. Conclusion:Detained male adolescents bear substantial mental health needs, emphasizing the need to organize effective mental health services for this troubled group. However, our knowledge on mental disorders in detained youth should be enhanced, in particular regarding the reliability of adolescents, compared with parent report, and whether clinically relevant differences exist by race or ethnicity.Can J Psychiatry. 2010;55(4):255-263. Clinical Implications· Across countries, detained and incarcerated adolescents have substantial mental health needs. · Standardized mental health screening at detention intakes is warranted. · Effective mental health services should be developed. Limitations· The systematic search of the literature was restricted to detained and incarcerated male adolescents only. · The number of studies on psychiatric disorders in detained male adolescents using a standardized psychiatric interview is still small. · Methodological differences hamper comparison and interpretation of the 15 index study results.

Federal, state, and local initiatives to improve the treatment and outcomes for young people in the juvenile justice system prompt the need for additional research. Despite the call for empirical data, researchers encounter numerous obstacles when initiating and conducting studies in detention and post-adjudication facilities. These obstacles are often only briefly mentioned in publications, but they can interfere with researchers' desires and abilities to conduct studies in these settings. This paper reviews legal, ethical, and methodological challenges to successfully conducting research in detention and residential post-adjudication placements, including selecting and accessing appropriate facilities, obtaining institutional review board approval, seeking parental permission and youth assent, reporting child abuse and neglect, responding to participants' threats to harm self or others, working effectively with facilities, juvenile justice system-related attrition, and the dissemination of research findings. Recommendations are presented to help investigators anticipate obstacles when designing and executing research protocols to prevent interference and to encourage ethical responses and successful study completion.
