Examining the Psychosocial Functioning and Characteristics of Incarcerated Girls with a Substance Use Disorder
2011
Overview
The purpose of this study was to identify the psychosocial characteristics of incarcerated girls with a substance use disorder. Profile analysis, the repeated measures extension of multivariate analysis of variance, was conducted to compare a state-based sample of incarcerated girls with (
n
= 140) and without (
n
= 63) a substance use disorder across multiple subscales of the Multidimensional Adolescent Assessment Scale. Girls with a substance use disorder had higher levels of problem severity. They were more likely to have problems related to alcohol use, drug use, aggression, and cognition. Incarcerated girls with a substance use disorder may benefit from intense interventions that focus on cognitive restructuring or cognitive recovery, and interventions that promote coping and stress management skills.
