Abstract:
We aimed to investigate sociodemographic characteristics of individuals under a supervised probation program used in Turkey and to compare characteristics of noncompliant versus no-need-to-treat individuals in order to determine the effect of sociodemographic characteristics on success of the supervised probation program. In total, 4,006 individuals who submitted to the supervised probation program of our hospital were evaluated retrospectively from patient data and follow-up records. The mean age of patients was 28.4 ± 8.0 years. We compared the sociodemographic characteristics of "no-need-to-treat" patients (n = 2,205) and "noncompliant" patients (n = 391). We found differences between sociodemographic characteristics of no need to treat and noncompliant groups. We conclude that age, education, presence of self-mutilation, starting age of smoking or substance use, and family history are important factors affecting treatment compliance and success. Therefore, more detailed programs for noncompliant patients should be developed to increase treatment performance.
