Abstract
Relevance of the problem. Adverse perinatal events resulting from a complex combination of social, physiological and environmental factors may be associated with an increased risk of developing criminogenic behavior in minors. The purpose of this study was to expand knowledge about biological risk factors, including adverse perinatal events, for the formation of a psychophysiological portrait of a juvenile offender. Material and methods of the study. A retrospective cohort non-randomized continuous study of the anamnesis of mothers (148 people) whose children were convicted of illegal actions was conducted.Results and discussion. The following were revealed: immature attitude of mothers to contraception (high difference in parity, repeated termination of pregnancy for social reasons; inattentive attitude to pregnancy (late registration or failure to attend antenatal clinics), insufficient overall weight gain during pregnancy, hypotension of pregnant women, late gestosis of pregnant women, home births; social diseases during pregnancy (socially significant diseases, sexually transmitted infections, maternal hypotrophy); unfavorable psychosocial background of pregnancy (inadequate behavior during childbirth, abandonment of the child, registration with the PND, registration of the family with social services, lack of education of the mother). Children with such a perinatal history develop a special personality type characteristic of organic pathopsychological syndrome. Conclusion. The results convincingly indicate an increased risk of personality disorder among children born to mothers with unfavorable obstetric-gynecological, somatic and social history. It is necessary to take into account the anatomical and physiological predicates of criminogenic behavior, since they can help in creating a preventive medical and social youth policy and avoid high levels of morbidity, mortality and social stigmatization among juvenile offenders.
