Research under Supervision of Lonnie Snowden, PhD, UC Berkeley
Purpose • Evaluate the association between youth mental
health crisis events (MCHE) and presenting
emotional regulation issues identified on CANS
o Frustration Management
o Anger Control
o Anxiety / Anxious Disposition
o Irritability
• MCHE identified in first sixth months of family services
for 1,397 youth served in nine California counties
between 2009 and 2012

Study Participants • Youth served are enrolled in program based on
agency contract with organization, characteristics
of youth risk, type of service and intensity needed:
o (1) School-based: school-based services for youth with emotional/social or behavioral issues in public or nonpublic schools;
o (2) Probation: intensive case management and mental health services for youth with delinquent behavior;
o (3) Wraparound: intensive case management and mental health services for youth at risk of out of home placement;
o (4) Residential: 24-hour residence and care for youth who have been removed from home;
o (5) CMH: structured mental health services provided to youth within the community.
Study Participants
• 1,715 unique youth served for at least 6 months in
time period
• 1,397 (81.5%) had an enrollment CANS
• For youth served in multiple programs, the episode
was selected for use from the first program in which
he or she was enrolled for at least 6 months

Study Site • Seneca Family of Agencies, non-profit agency founded 1985
o Provides comprehensive care for thousands of families and youth
with mental illness, social and/or behavioral problems California
o provides mobile crisis response, crisis stabilization, therapeutic
foster family care, wraparound, community mental health,
therapeutic behavior services, multisystemic therapy, and
intensive case management for probation-involved youth
• In 2010-2011, the agency responded to >750 mobile crisis
events and provided >3,000 episodes of crisis stabilization to
children experiencing high levels of distress

AHIMSA Model • In 2010, Seneca implemented the Ahimsa model - a
relational approach for responding to crisis
• Cultural shift that changed the agency’s perception • Use of restraint and seclusion seen as a failure of treatment and barrier to
academic achievement (2)
• Any and all alternative interventions sought out and tried
• Treating everyone with respect and dignity core values of behavioral work
• Using Unconditional Care Clinical practice to
incorporate the child’s internal working model and
staff’s disconfirming stance intentionally • Getting to know and recognize antecedent behavior and triggers
• Disconfirming stance to redirect and de-escalate behaviors
• Create highly individualized plans

Appropriate Response
Research Questions • (1) among children treated in an agency with comprehensive
programs serving children with mental illness and other
emotional and behavioral problems, were independent
emotional dysregulation issues associated with mental health
crises requiring a crisis response within programs
• (2) were there program type differences which affected crisis
and crisis response between the program types, including,
school-based, probation, wraparound programs, residential
facilities and community mental health (CMH)
• (3) how much of program-type differences were mediated by
initially identified participant’s emotional dysregulation issues

Outcome & Exposure • Number of crisis events for youth between day 1
and 182 of service
• Admission CANS administered generally within first
month of service (83.4%) identified presence of the
four emotional regulation issues
• Length of time (days) to CANS assessment was not
associated with likelihood of identification of
emotional regulation issue
Child and Adolescent Needs and Strengths (CANS)
• Multi-purpose tool designed to support: o Decision making
o Facilitate quality improvement initiatives
o Monitor outcomes of services
• Widely employed- currently used in 25 states in child
welfare, mental health, juvenile justice, and early
intervention applications
• CANS answers drive service planning

Results • Research Question 1:
o Individual-level Emotional Regulation while controlling for race, age, gender, program-level proportions of emotionally dysregulated youth and program type was:
• frustration management (IRR=1.51, p<0.001)
• anger control (IRR=1.73, p<0.001)
• anxiety (IRR=1.26, p<0.001)
• No evidence for irritability
• Research Questions 2: o From base model, there were no significant differences in rates of crisis
events by program type, while controlling for age, race and gender

Full Model Results
• Rate of crisis events at the subject-level, while
controlling for other variables in the model:
o 1.4 (p<0.001) fold increased incidence rate with frustration management
o 1.4 (p<0.001) fold increased incidence rate with anger control issues
o 1.2 (p<0.001) fold increased incidence rate with anxiety/anxiousness
o 14% (p<0.001) decrease in incidence rate of crisis events when irritability present
Results • Research Question 3:
o There were no program type differences in the base model which could be mediated by accounting for emotional regulation issues in the full model
o There was no evidence that programs with increased proportion of youth with emotional regulation issues experienced higher rates of crisis events
after adjusting for subject-level emotional regulation issues, while controlling for other covariates.

Discussion o CANS-measured aspects (i.e., anger control, frustration
management, anxiety and irritability) of an emotional regulation
construct were associated with rate of mental health crisis events
o Evidence of ability to identify emotional dysregulation in the
clinical setting with simple ubiquitous measure
o Suggests that youth may not experience varying levels of crisis
due to program-level procedures or environmental factors
o Suggests that a variety of different types of programs can utilize
common crisis prevention models across programs
Limitations & Strengths o Limitations
• Observational cross-sectional secondary data analysis
• One agency’s existing data primarily collected for the
purpose of serving families
• Possible that crisis events in first few days could have alerted
clinicians to emotional regulation issues for the youth
o Strengths
• Study still identifies the ability clinicians to use the CANS to
identify increased risk of mental health crisis
• Clinician need not wait for crisis event to occur to identify
youth at risk and in need of crisis intervention services
• Design circumvents frequent translational issues of study results
from research to practice

Conclusion
Emotional regulation issues identified on CANS
assessment can be identified early in the clinical
setting to identify youth at risk of crisis events
There is a lack of research which focuses on the
trajectory of youth mental health crises in the
community
