商品描述

This brief summarizes the existing body of knowledge about the links between mental illness and violence, recommends improved methods to deal with potentially violent individuals with mental illness, and identifies pressing implementation and research needs. In public perception and media reports, mental illness and violence - particularly gun violence - are unquestionably linked. However, empirical research presents a more nuanced and complex view of this relationship.
Taking into account differences between youth and adults, as well as gender and racial difference, this innovative volume will be useful to policy-makers, legislators, researchers and students interested in addressing the growing public concern about mentally ill individuals at risk for violence.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本摘要總結了有關心理疾病與暴力之間聯繫的現有知識體系，建議改進處理潛在暴力的心理疾病個體的方法，並確定迫切的實施和研究需求。在公眾認知和媒體報導中，心理疾病與暴力——特別是槍支暴力——無疑是相互關聯的。然而，實證研究對這種關係提供了更細緻和複雜的觀點。

考慮到青少年與成人之間的差異，以及性別和種族差異，這本創新著作將對政策制定者、立法者、研究人員和有興趣解決對於有暴力風險的心理疾病個體日益關注的學生們非常有用。
