Criminal Behaviour and Mental Health (CBMH)

Criminal Behaviour and Mental Health is an internationally recognized interdisciplinary journal that addresses pressing scholarly and clinical issues at the crossroads of criminal behaviour and mental health. Since its establishment in 1991, the journal has published empirical research, theoretical analyses, and practice‑oriented studies that deepen understanding of how mental state, psychiatric disorders, and psychological processes intersect with offending behaviour and involvement with the criminal justice system. The journal’s content spans examinations of developmental pathways into crime, psychological mechanisms linked to offending, studies on the effectiveness of treatment and intervention programs, and evaluation of systems that aim to prevent re‑offending and improve rehabilitation outcomes. Its readership includes psychiatrists, psychologists, criminologists, forensic professionals, legal scholars, and policymakers interested in evidence‑based approaches to managing offenders with complex mental health needs. By fostering rigorous peer‑reviewed research and dialogue across disciplines, Criminal Behaviour and Mental Health contributes to improved practice, policy formulation, and scholarly advances that support both public safety and the therapeutic needs of individuals within forensic settings.
