Does Psychiatric Disorder Predict Violent Crime Among Released Jail Detainees? A Six- Year Longitudinal Study, by Linda A. Teplin, Karen M. Abram, and Gary M. McClelland, American Psychologist 1994, Vol 49, No. 4: 335-342. This study found neither severe mental disorder nor substance abuse or dependence predicted the probability of arrest or the number of arrests for violent crime. Persons with symptoms of both hallucinations and delusions had a slightly higher number of arrests for violent crime, but not significantly so. These findings held even after controlling for prior violence and age.
