About
The Division of Clinical Study on Juvenile Delinquency conducts psychological and psychiatric research to elucidate the mechanisms underlying mental disorders and problematic behaviors in children, such as depressive symptoms, bipolar disorder, and delinquency. Additionally, it aims to elucidate various mental health issues.
We are also conducting research using a behavioral genetics approach on twins from childhood to adolescence to examine issues related to children's mental health and problematic behavior from a multifaceted perspective.
