DESCRIZIONE

Helping keep kids out of the criminal justice system is one of the many responsibilities of being a child and adolescent psychiatrist. But when it happens, experts Robert Vermeiren, MD, PhD, and Vladislav Ruchkin, MD, PhD, offer help to make sure their first experience with the law is their last. This well-rounded issue discusses concurrent problems in juveniles, such as learning disabilities and mental and developmental disorders. Other helpful chapters include trial consulting and expert testimony, legal and ethical aspects of the juvenile justice system and assessment and treatment of these conditions, which sometimes requires medication. Key words: Developmental disorders, mental disorders, screening, psychopathy, judicial system, forensic assessment, psychopharmacological, post-release rehabilitation
