Learn how and why trauma is relevant to juvenile delinquencyand
what to do about it! This groundbreaking book addresses the
connection between childhood trauma and juvenile delinquency.
Trauma and Juvenile Delinquency: Theory, Research, and
Interventions begins with two chapters presenting theoretical
models of the relationship between trauma and the
development/persistence of antisocial behavior. Another chapter
addresses trauma-related assessment issues for juveniles, and
several chapters present cutting-edge research on various aspects
of the relationship between trauma and delinquency. Finally,
several chapters focus on theory-based and empirically supported
trauma-focused therapeutic interventions for juvenile delinquents.
No other single source provides such breadth and depth of coverage
on this topic! From the editor: Disruptive behavior disorders are
by far the largest type of mental health referral for children and
adolescents, while juvenile crime and violence continue to be major
social concerns. Several bodies of literature have converged to
suggest that trauma is more than incidental to the problem of
juvenile delinquency, it contributes to the problem. Trauma and
Juvenile Delinquency: Theory, Research, and Interventions explores:
how trauma relates to conduct disorder the connection between
traumatic victimization and oppositional/defiance problems ways to
assess PTSD in adolescents how exposure to violence, delinquent
activity, and posttraumatic stress symptomatology are related the
unique trauma histories of incarcerated girls and the problems they
have adjusting to life within the juvenile justice system how to
develop group therapy services for incarcerated male juvenile
offenders with PTSD This valuable book also examines the
effectiveness of EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and
Reprocessing) for boys with conduct problems, MASTR (Motivation -
Adaptive Skills - Trauma Resolution) for teens with school-related
problems, and CPT (Cognitive Processing Therapy) for juvenile
delinquents with post-traumatic stress disorder.
