本文概述了在试图评估精神病患者由于非机构化而被“定罪”这一假设时遇到的概念和方法问题。很难做出概括，很大程度上是因为大多数研究都是美国的，并不适合加拿大的场景。相关的加拿大调查结果进行审查，并与美国的数据进行比较。有一些证据表明，加拿大患者可能比美国更经常地从刑事司法系统转移，因为美国的资源较少。然而，这一结论必须受到加拿大调查发现监狱和监狱囚犯中精神障碍率很高的事实的影响。
This paper is an overview of the conceptual and methodological problems encountered trying to assess the hypothesis that the mentally ill, as a consequence of deinstitutionalization, are being “criminalized”. Generalizations are difficult to make, in large part because most of the studies are American and do not fit well into the Canadian scene. Relevant Canadian findings are reviewed and compared to the US data. There is some evidence that Canadian patients may be diverted from the criminal justice system more often than in the US, where there are fewer resources. However, this conclusion must be tempered by the fact that Canadian surveys have found high rates of mental disorder among prison and jail inmates.
