It is difficult to compare our findings with studies of general population youth because rates vary widely, depending on the sample, the method, the source of data (participant or collaterals), and whether functional impairment was required for diagnosis.50 Despite these differences, our overall rates are substantially higher than the median rate
reported in a major review article (15 %) 50 and
other more recent investigations: the Great Smoky Mountains Study (20.3 %), 56 the Virginia Twin Study of
Adolescent Behavioral Development (142 cases per 1000 persons), 57 the Methods for the Epidemiology of Child and
Adolescent Mental Disorders (6.1 %), 32 and the Miami — Dade County Public School Study (38 %).58 We are especially concerned about the high rates of depression and dysthymia among detained youth (17.2 % of males, 26.3 % of females), which are also higher than general population rates.51,56 - 61 Depressive disorders are difficult to detect (and treat) in the chaos of the corrections milieu.

Men and women rated kissing on the lips as being more intimate than cuddling, hand holding, hugging, and massaging.2 In a study of
adolescents and young adults, those who engaged in more frequent kissing had higher levels of relationship satisfaction.3 One reason for this satisfaction boost was because conflict with a romantic partner was easier to resolve when there was more affection, like kissing on the lips, in the relationship.2 Kissing promotes emotional closeness, and partners
report that kissing after sex strengthens their bond and that they desire to kiss each
other after orgasm.1 This makes sense because kissing may increase levels of oxytocin (aka the «love» hormone), a chemical that promotes bonding.4

Compared to non-LD peers, youth with LD frequently
report feelings of loneliness, stress, depression and suicide, among
other psychiatric symptoms.15, 16 For example, in the National Longitudinal Study of
Adolescent Health, the LD sample was twice as likely to
report a suicide attempt in the past year.16 Longitudinal research on risk - taking indicates that, compared to non-LD peers,
adolescents with LD engage more frequently in various risk behaviours.17 Therefore, the presence of LD in childhood appears to confer a general risk for adverse outcomes throughout adolescence and into adulthood.
Indeed, observational studies of mealtime suggest that effective affect management, interpersonal involvement, and communication in families relate to child health.27 In a focus - group study, some
adolescents reported not having shared family meals together because of dissatisfaction with family relations.25

reported higher rates of major depression and
other psychopathology (anxiety disorders, conduct disorders and substance abuse disorders) in

adolescents with CD (Cohen and Strayer 1996), although data for individual emotions were not
reported and it is therefore unclear whether some emotions were more affected than
others.
Specifically,
adolescents with high levels of CU traits

This is especially likely to be the case if, in the absence of well - developed ToM skills, the individual is unable to attribute the negative actions of
others to situational factors.137 (Consistent with this part of this model, a genetic high - risk study has
reported that, in
adolescents at high genetic risk of psychosis, an external locus of control predicted the later development of illness.142) These characteristics will, in turn, lead to a tendency to anticipate social threats and hence paranoid beliefs.
Only Mendelson et al. (1995) and Turner et al. (2005) used similar self -
report questionnaires of the parent — child relationship but studied a different age group (i.e.,

reports or observational measures of family factors.
