Crime and Mental Disorder, 1972
The purpose of this data collection was to explore the
relationship between crime and mental disorder among jail inmates.
Three sample groups were studied: jail inmates who had psychiatric
contacts, jail inmates who did not have psychiatric contacts, and a
control group of psychiatric patients who were not in jail. Psychiatric
diagnosis history for inmates and patients with psychiatric contacts
spanning 18 years (1960-1977) is available along with each subject's
crime record and sentencing history. Variables include demographic
characteristics, type of offenses sentenced, and number of arrests.
Also included are psychiatric contact information including date of
contact, diagnosis, type of service given, date of treatment
termination, and reason for termination.
