“…The results of this study were consistent with previous research (Rowe, 2002;Schmidt et al, 2005) that indicated the YLS/CMI had an acceptable level of internal consistency. While some items seemingly contributed little to the reliability of the sub-scales, the overall reliability of the measure was relatively high.…”

“…The risk levels correspond with four general categories of low, moderate, high, and very high risk. In two studies (Rowe, 2002;Schmidt, Hoge, & Gomes, 2005) examining reliability, researchers found that the eight subscales had an internal consistency within an acceptable range (.56 to .77). Several researchers (Rowe, 2002; see also Schmidt, Hoge, & Robertson, 2002) were also able to establish construct validity of the YLS/CMI by showing significant correlations with the psychopathy scale, child behavior checklist, the disruptive disorder rating scale, and the conduct disorder symptom scale.…”

Ü b e r s i c h tZusammenfassung Persönlichkeitsstörungen (Ps) im Jugendalter sind immer noch eine kontrovers diskutierte thematik. Ziel dieses beitrags ist es, die aktuellen entwicklungslinien in der Persönlichkeitsforschung im Jugendalter darzustellen sowie Perspektiven in Forschung und Diagnostik zu skizzieren. Aktuelle studienergebnisse verweisen darauf, dass Ps im Jugendalter mittels der für erwachsene entwickelten instrumente zuverlässig erfasst werden können und diagnostiziert werden sollten. Zugleich fehlt es noch an spezifischen Instrumenten, welche die besonderheiten von Ps im Jugendalter abbilden und von Adoleszenzkrisen differenzieren können. Da einige Ps-Merkmale gleichzeitig auch passagere entwicklungsmerkmale darstellen, wird auf diese Differenzialdiagnose ausführlich eingegangen.Die Prävalenz von Ps scheint im Jugendalter höher als im erwachsenenalter zu liegen. Die stabilität von Ps hingegen ist im Jugend-und erwachsenenalter vergleichbar. Die "psychopathy" als subform der antisozialen Ps, die auch bei Jugendlichen zu finden ist, wird hinsichtlich Kern-und Verhaltensdimensionen sowie eines primären und sekundären subtypus diskutiert. Außerdem wird auf die forensischen Aspekte bei der beurteilung von Ps bezüglich schuldfähigkeit im Jugendalter eingegangen.insgesamt wird deutlich, dass es noch weiterer diagnostischer Langzeitstudien bedarf, um zu klären, unter welchen bedingungen Ps manifest werden, welche Faktoren ihren Verlauf beeinflussen und wie sie sich durch Interventionen verändern lassen.Schlüsselwörter Persönlichkeitsstörungen · Persönlichkeitspathologie · Adoleszenz · Adoleszenzkrise · Psychopathy · Forensische Aspekte Recent developmental pathways in personality research in adolescenceAbstract Personality disorders in juveniles are still a controversially discussed topic. the aim of this paper is to describe the recent trend in personality research in adolescence and to outline perspectives in research and assessment. recent study results have pointed out that personality disorders in juveniles can be reliably assessed with diagnostic instruments that have been developed for adults. At the same time there is a lack of specific instruments that can represent the characteristics during adolescence and that can differentiate personality disorders from youth crises. As some personality disorder dimensions also describe unstable developmental criteria we will focus separately on this differential diagnosis and meaning of stable versus transient personality characteristics in youth.the prevalence of personality disorders seems to be higher in adolescence than in adulthood. the stability, however, is comparable in adolescence and adulthood. Psychopathy as a subtype of the antisocial personality disorder - that can also be assessed in juveniles - will be discussed regarding its core and behavioral dimensions as well as primary and secondary subtypes. Furthermore, we discuss forensic issues when assessing personality disorders with respect to criminal responsibility.Overall we can show that more ...

“…Convergent validity was also found to range from moderate to strong, with the YLS/CMI strongly correlating with other relevant assessment measures ( i.e., .48 to .82 with the Psychopathy Checklist: Youth Version, Forth, Kosson, & Hare, 2003;Catchpole & Gretton, 2003, Rowe, 2002Viljoen et al, 2009). Finally, predictive validity has been found to be acceptable, with correlations between the YLS/CMI and reoffending rates ranging from .16 to .41 (Flores, Travis, & Latessa, 2004;Rowe, 2002;Schmidt, Hoge, & Gomes, 2005;Vieira et al, 2009).…”

“…Predictive validity has also been examined with respect to how well the substance abuse subscale predicts reoffending. It was found that the correlations between the substance abuse subscale and re-offending ranged from .12 to .14 (Hoge & Andrews, 1996;Rowe, 2002). The internal consistency was found to range from .56 to .83 (Flores et al, 2004;Rowe, 2002;Schmidt et al, 2005;Welsh, Schmidt, McKinnon, Chattha, & Meyers, 2008).…”

Child Abuse, Its Aftermath, and Criminal Recidivism in a Mixed Gender Sample of Adolescent Offenders

The current study examines if childhood abuse increases the likelihood of criminal recidivism through four potential mediators-deviant peers, substance abuse, running away from home, and internalizing behaviours (i.e., anxiety, depression), and determine if these relationships vary across gender. To test these relationships, a prospective research design was used with 332 justice-involved youth (113 females, 219 males; ages 12-21). Official provincial recidivism data was obtained and the average follow up time was 30.43 months (SD = 4.96). Overall, substance abuse and deviant peers significantly and positively mediated the relationship between childhood abuse and criminal recidivism for males only. Internalizing behaviours and running away from home, however, were not found to mediate the relationship between child abuse and criminal recidivism for either gender. Limitations include reliance on a simplistic measure of childhood abuse. Results suggest that an integrated approach of combining genderneutral and gender-specific theories of criminal behaviour is warranted.
