Research documents trauma experiences and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) among juvenile justice-involved youth; however, much less is known about the trauma and PTSD of their parents. This manuscript examines the extent to which youth PTSD and parent PTSD relate to youth’s mental health problems (e.g., anxiety, depression), emotional regulation, and drug use. Data are from a baseline sample of 149 youth-parent dyads recruited from the Los Angeles County Juvenile Court System to participate in an efficacy trial of EXPORT/STRIVE, a family-based intervention administered to both youth and their parents or guardians. The intervention aimed to reduce individual and interpersonal challenges youth report experiencing when leaving incarcerated settings. We compared youth’s mental health problems, emotional regulation, and drug use between youth with and without PTSD, as well as between youth with parents with PTSD and without PTSD. Results illustrate a high rate of exposure to traumatic events among both youth and parents, and significant associations between youth mental health problems and emotional regulation with youth PTSD but not parental PTSD. While parental PTSD was not directly associated with youth’s problems, given such high rates of trauma and PTSD among parents of juvenile justice-involved youth, family interventions targeting juvenile justice-involved youth should more intentionally consider the potential role parental trauma might play in intervention engagement and effectiveness.

涉及少年司法的青少年家庭中的 PTSD:与心理、情绪和行为健康问题的关系

研究记录了参与少年司法的青少年的创伤经历和创伤后应激障碍 (PTSD);然而,人们对他们父母的创伤和创伤后应激障碍知之甚少。这份手稿检查了青少年 PTSD 和父母 PTSD 与青少年的心理健康问题(例如,焦虑、抑郁)、情绪调节和药物使用的关系。数据来自洛杉矶县少年法庭系统招募的 149 名青少年父母二人组的基线样本,以参与 EXPORT/STRIVE 的功效试验,这是一项针对青少年及其父母或监护人的基于家庭的干预措施。该干预旨在减少青年报告在离开监禁环境时遇到的个人和人际关系挑战。我们比较了青少年的心理健康问题、情绪调节、患有和未患有 PTSD 的青少年之间,以及父母患有 PTSD 和没有 PTSD 的青少年之间的药物使用情况。结果表明,青少年和父母的创伤事件暴露率很高,青少年心理健康问题和情绪调节与青少年 PTSD 之间存在显着关联,但与父母 PTSD 无关。虽然父母的创伤后应激障碍与青少年的问题没有直接关系,但鉴于参与少年司法的青少年的父母的创伤和创伤后应激障碍发生率如此之高,针对参与少年司法的青少年的家庭干预应该更加有意识地考虑父母创伤可能在干预参与中发挥的潜在作用和有效性。结果表明,青少年和父母的创伤事件暴露率很高,青少年心理健康问题和情绪调节与青少年 PTSD 之间存在显着关联,但与父母 PTSD 无关。虽然父母的创伤后应激障碍与青少年的问题没有直接关系,但鉴于参与少年司法的青少年的父母的创伤和创伤后应激障碍发生率如此之高,针对参与少年司法的青少年的家庭干预应该更加有意识地考虑父母创伤可能在干预参与中发挥的潜在作用和有效性。结果表明,青少年和父母的创伤事件暴露率很高,青少年心理健康问题和情绪调节与青少年 PTSD 之间存在显着关联,但与父母 PTSD 无关。虽然父母的创伤后应激障碍与青少年的问题没有直接关系,但鉴于参与少年司法的青少年的父母的创伤和创伤后应激障碍发生率如此之高,针对参与少年司法的青少年的家庭干预应该更加有意识地考虑父母创伤可能在干预参与中发挥的潜在作用和有效性。
