Area of Science:

  • Forensic Psychiatry
  • Correctional Healthcare
  • Mental Health Research

Background:

  • Prison populations exhibit significantly elevated rates of mental health disorders globally.
  • Limited resources in correctional facilities contrast with the high prevalence of psychiatric conditions among inmates.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review recent findings on mental health in prisons.
  • To examine the evolving needs of incarcerated individuals.
  • To discuss implications for treatment strategies.

Main Methods:

  • Systematic review of current research and meta-analyses.
  • Focus on prevalence rates of common and complex mental disorders.
  • Inclusion of studies on specific subgroups (women, older prisoners) and suicide/self-harm.

Main Results:

  • Robust evidence confirms high prevalence of mental disorders, including attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and posttraumatic stress disorder.
  • Subgroups like women and older prisoners present unique challenges.
  • Positive outcomes noted for substance use disorder treatments, but psychological therapies lack proven sustained effects.

Conclusions:

  • Further research is needed to consolidate findings and establish specialized diagnostic and therapeutic standards for prison mental healthcare.
  • Ethical considerations, alongside human and financial resources, must guide future developments.
  • Addressing heterogeneous needs requires tailored approaches in correctional mental health services.
