TITLE: The Role of Hostile Attribution Bias and Working Memory in the Link between Trauma Exposure and Violence in Justice-Involved Youth PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT Youth violence is a serious public health issue associated with devastating consequences for the victim and extreme economic costs to society. Youth involved with the justice system are often both victims and perpetrators of violence, the latter of which is often associated with escalating justice-system involvement. Trauma exposure is associated with an increased risk for violence perpetration but the mechanism by which trauma exposure increases the risk for violence is not clear. The strongest known cognitive factor that links trauma exposure to violence is hostile attribution bias (HAB), or a tendency to interpret the intentions of others as hostile. HAB is consistently linked to violence in youth and is thought to be the key element in the etiology and maintenance of violent behavior and is also often the mechanism of change when treating violence. However, these interventions are only partially effective. Failure to consider the impact of working memory may explain why interventions for these populations have been only partially effective. Mitigating HAB cannot occur without accessing working memory and there is a lack of knowledge as to the degree to which working memory interacts with HAB in the relation between trauma exposure and violence. No studies have examined if the interaction between HAB and working memory mediates the relation between trauma exposure and violence. The proposed study seeks to advance the field by being the first to elucidate the relations between HAB and working memory, with a particular focus on the interactions between HAB and working memory, in the link between trauma exposure and youth violence. Participants will be recruited from two youth detention centers located in the Midwest and will include 250 youth ages 11 to 17 years. The project will include career development activities and the completion of a comprehensive training plan to prepare the applicant for a research career in youth violence and cognitive psychology. The project goals will be accomplished with the support of a highly experienced team of sponsors. It is expected that the research project and training plan will significantly advance the applicant's knowledge, skills, and abilities to become an independent clinical researcher.

敌意归因偏向和工作记忆在创伤暴露与工作记忆联系中的作用 司法中的暴力--涉足青少年 项目摘要/摘要 青少年暴力是一个严重的公共卫生问题，与受害者和 给社会带来了极端的经济代价。参与司法系统的青年往往既是受害者，又是 暴力行为的肇事者，后者往往与不断升级的司法系统参与有关。 暴露于创伤与实施暴力的风险增加有关，但 创伤暴露增加了暴力的风险，目前尚不清楚。已知的最强认知因素与 暴露于暴力的创伤是一种敌意归因偏见(HAB)，或解释他人意图的倾向 充满敌意。家庭暴力一直与青少年的暴力有关，被认为是病因的关键因素。 和维持暴力行为，也往往是在对待暴力时改变的机制。 然而，这些干预措施只是部分有效。未能考虑到工作记忆的影响可能 解释为什么对这些人群的干预只有部分效果。不可能发生缓解赤潮的情况 没有访问工作记忆，并且缺乏关于工作的程度的知识 在创伤暴露和暴力之间的关系中，记忆与HAB相互作用。还没有研究检查过 如果HAB和工作记忆之间的交互作用在创伤暴露和工作记忆之间的关系中起中介作用 暴力。这项拟议的研究试图通过第一次阐明两者之间的关系来推动该领域的发展 HAB和工作记忆，特别关注HAB和工作记忆之间的相互作用，在 精神创伤暴露和青少年暴力之间的联系。参与者将从两个青少年拘留中心招募 中心位于中西部，将包括250名年龄在11至17岁的青少年。该项目将包括职业生涯 开展发展活动并完成全面的培训计划，为申请人参加 青少年暴力和认知心理学的研究生涯。该项目的目标将通过 由经验丰富的赞助商团队提供支持。预计研究项目和培训计划将 显著提高申请者的知识、技能和能力，使其成为独立的临床医生 研究员。
