Clinical phenotypes of psychosis and reoffending risk among justice-involved adolescents: a population-based cohort study
Non-affective psychoses significantly elevate reoffending risk among justice-involved adolescents, with different magnitudes of risk associated with schizophrenia-related and substance-induced psychosis. Findings highlight the need for nuanced risk assessment and targeted strategies, including routine screening, early intervention, and integrated care pathways within the youth justice system.
