    Notes: Abstract Objective: This study identified individual and peer-relations problems of inpatient youths who are aggressive, and whether youths who are aggressive in two settings have greater treatment needs than youths who are aggressive in one setting only. Method: 85 youths aged 10 to 16 years who were consecutively admitted to a psychiatric facility served as participants. Based on ratings by parents and hospital staff, youths were identified as aggressive in the community only, aggressive in the hospital only, aggressive in both settings, or nonaggressive. Dependent measures consisted of youth self-reports and ratings by parents and hospital staff. Results: Youths who demonstrate aggressive behavior in two settings have more nonaggressive behavior problems, more disturbed peer relations, and more hostile thinking than do nonaggressive youths, and some youths, although they may behave aggressively during hospitalization, have similar treatment needs as nonaggressive youths. Conclusions: Mental health professionals who work with youths in psychiatric settings need to develop treatment plans that directly address the more severe externalizing problems, hostile thinking, and peer problems of aggressive youths over and above that of nonaggressive youths, and should be aware that youths who behave aggressively during hospitalization may not have problems more severe than those of nonaggressive youths.

    Notes: Abstract The present study examined familial and individual variables in youngsters at high risk for suicide and non-suicidal youngsters. One hundred inpatient children and adolescents completed a battery of questionnaires including, FACES II, Family Strengths, and Problem Behavior Scales, to assess family dysfunction and individual behavior problems. The results indicated that suicidal youngsters have lower pride in their families and perceived them as less adaptable than non-suicidal youngsters as indicated by scores on the Family Strengths and FACES II, respectively. Scores on the Problem Behavior Scales indicated that suicidal youngsters also exhibited self-inflicted behaviors, withdrawal from others, little interest in activities, poor concentration, and difficulties with sleeping. In addition, youths at risk for suicide were more likely to be diagnosed with a mood disorder, including major depressive disorder and dysthymia, as well as substance abuse and phobias. These findings suggest that suicidal youngsters' negative perceptions of their families and their maladaptive behaviors should be given special attention in designing appropriate interventions. In this way, treatment would likely be effective by providing appropriate coping skills and preventing future suicidal attempts in high risk youngsters.

    Notes: This article discusses the development of a prototype neural network-based supervisory control system for Bacillus thuringiensis fermentations. The input pattern to the neural network included the type of inoculum, operation temperature, pH value, accumulated process time, optical density in fermentation medium, and change in optical density. The output from the neural network was the predicted optical density for the next sampling time. The control system has been implemented in both a computer simulation and a laboratory fermentation experiment with promising results. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
