未成年暴力犯冒险倾向的实验研究

Experiment Study on Risk-Taking in Juvenile Violent Offenders

目的:通过气球模拟风险决策任务(BART)探查未成年暴力犯的冒险倾向。方法:对64名未成年暴力犯和35名普通未成年进行BART任务测试,未成年暴力犯还进行暴力风险量表(VRS-YV)评估。结果:未成年暴力犯的BART值(未爆破气球的平均充气数)显著高于普通未成年人,未成年暴力犯的BART值与其暴力风险量表中的成瘾行为因子和冲动性因子得分显著正相关。结论:未成年暴力犯比普通未成年人具有更高的冒险倾向,其冒险倾向水平与成瘾行为和冲动性高关联。

Objective: Balloon Analog Risk Task was used to investigate the tendency of risk taking in juvenile violent offenders. Methods: Sixty four juvenile violent offenders and thirty five common adolescents were tested by Balloon Analog Risk Task. Juvenile violent offenders were also assessed with Violence Risk Scale-Youth Version. Results: The BART value which was the average number of air inflation in juvenile violent offenders was significantly higher than that in the controls. In juvenile violent offenders, BART value was positively correlated with the factor scores of addiction and impulsivity in violence risk scale. Conclusion: Juvenile violent offenders had higher tendency of risk taking than common adolescents, which was highly associated with addiction and impulsivity.
