摘要:

The latest revisions of the diagnostic classification systems, ICD-10 and DSM-IV, relinquish a purely behavioural approach to forensically relevant personality disorders and revive the concept of psychopathic disorder' In anticipation of DSM-IV, studies have recently focused on conceptual and classificatory problems. Current research on the epidemiological, aetiological and therapeutic aspects of this topic are also dealt with in this review.

摘要:

Research into human sexuality has resulted in advances in the pharmacological treatment and understanding of the biological aspects of the paraphilias. Pharmacotherapy of sexual deviancy is fairly highly developed, although a variety of difficulties have prevented double-blind studies from being completed, and more intensive research is necessary. Surgical castration has also raised some controversy in terms of its ethical implications. The relationship of mental retardation to sexual deviancy is another subject which has been addressed but one for which further research is clearly necessary. Further research into the biological aspects of sexual deviancy is needed with a specific view on further pharmacological interventions. Some other research and clinical reports are also of general interest in this area.

摘要:

The major recent advances in delinquency research have been methodological. Large-scale epidemiological and longitudinal surveys have advanced knowledge about the development of delinquency and antisocial behaviour. Randomized experiments and meta-analyses have fostered the belief that delinquency can be prevented and treated successfully.

摘要:

This review focuses on various aspects of victimization: epidemiology, causes, effects and treatment approaches. Post-traumatic stress disorder is one possible outcome of victimization. However, the impact of trauma is variable and multifactorial. The following review emphasizes that additional factors, such as childhood experiences, past personality, past victimization, psychosocial factors, including social support, also affect the course of recovery.

摘要:

The relationship between substance abuse and offending continues to attract the attention of researchers from several disciplines. As this field matures, complexities of this relationship begin to unfold. Similarly, the problems of managing the associated social and clinical issues are becoming more widely debated by both researchers and practitioners.

摘要:

Ethical dilemmas in psychiatry are centred around issues of autonomy and are particularly difficult to resolve in the field of forensic psychiatry. The psychiatrist's allegiance may be split, particularly on issues such as the death penalty, surgical castration and seclusion. The possible demonstrable, neuropsychiatric basis of violence raises anew questions about individual responsibility and determinism, as well as treatment without consent. Human rights principles in relation to mental illness have been set out clearly by the United Nations and the Council of Europe and provide a legal basis for certain ethical principles. In the future, the focus of ethical debate in psychiatry will shift progressively from the microenvironment of the doctor-patient relationship to macroenvironmental issues of service provision, resource allocation, priorities and rationing. Ethics applied to psychiatry must be, above all, pragmatic.
