Substance misuse paralleling behaviour in detained offenders
Abstract
This chapter introduces the concept of parallel substance misuse behaviour and seeks to use theoretical constructs from the addiction literature to develop clinicians, understanding of how they can improve their knowledge of these issues in delivering substance misuse interventions in detained populations. The population to which this chapter mainly relates is a group of detained mentally disordered offenders within the Forensic Division of a large healthcare trust in England. However, similar substance misuse paralleling behaviours (SMPBs) have been observed in other detained offender populations (e.g. Murphy, personal communication, 2009). Numerous clinical examples are used to demonstrate how these parallel behaviours can aid the clinical decision-making process. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
