Abstract
- The article focuses on a randomized study which determines the rapid response outpatient treatment and the group therapy intervention in relation to the number of self-harm among adolescents in Australia. Participants in the study are composed of young adolescents of 12-16 year olds who have referred to a child and adolescent mental health service and reported to have at least two episodes of self-harm. Methods of the study include randomized personal interviews and assessment of suicidal behavior. The study asserts that there is a tendency for those adolescents who extended a randomized experimental treatment to show greater improvement than the controlled group.
