Objective: The objectives of the research were to study the influence of education level and some family factors (alcohol addiction of<br />
parents, upbringing in a one-parent family) on the inclination to commit criminal offences in the examined individuals in Soviet times in<br />
comparison to the current situation. Material and methods: 35 reports of the Commission of forensic psychiatric experts over the period<br />
of January - March 2010 (the examined individuals of group 1) and 35 archive acts of outpatient forensic psychiatric examination that<br />
covered the period of January-March 1991 (the examined individuals of group 2) were analyzed. In total 70 men aged between 15 and 75<br />
were considered. The statistic method, comparative analysis, in combination with the data on the somatoneurological state and the data<br />
of an experimental psychological study were applied.<br />
Results: The study found out that 20 patients of group 1 were held criminally responsible under article 131 of the RF Criminal Code (CC),<br />
13 under article 132 of the RF CC, and 2 individuals were held criminally responsible under article 135 of the RF CC. Out of total 20 patients,<br />
14 had received incomplete secondary education, 7 did not receive any education at all, 6 individuals received full secondary education,<br />
4 incomplete secondary vocational education, 4 higher vocational education, and 1 patient received education in the form of 8 years of<br />
special school. The family history data showed that 10 patients were brought up in the family in which either 1 or both parents abused<br />
alcohol, 9 individuals were raised and developed in a one-parent family, 8 individuals did not have parents at all, and only 8 out of the<br />
35 patients of group 1 were brought up in secure families. The 35 patients of group 2 included 9 individuals that were held criminally<br />
responsible under article 144 of the RSFSR CC, 5 under article 108 of the RSFSR CC, 4 under each of articles 103, 145 of the RSFSR CC, 2<br />
under each of articles 117, 206, 246 of the RSFSR CC, 1 under each of articles 89, 102, 120, 148, 188, 212, 224 of the RSFSR CC. In group<br />
2 there were 15 individuals with incomplete secondary education, 13 with incomplete secondary vocational education, 5 with full<br />
secondary education and 2 with full secondary vocational education. The family history data showed that 18 patients from group 2 were<br />
brought up in the family where either one or both parents abused alcohol, 28 were raised in a two-parent secure family and 7 individuals<br />
were raised in a one-parent family.<br />
Conclusion: The study demonstrated a clear relationship between the education level and some family factors affecting the inclination<br />
to commit criminal offences. Now the number of criminal offenses against the person that are committed by uneducated individuals<br />
has increased, as well as crimes committed by those who have higher vocational education, while the number of secure families has<br />
decreased, which in turn has exacerbated the criminal situation in the country.<br />
Key words: Education factors, Soviet times, forensic psychiatric examination<br />

Introduction: Crisis Teams are well established in many trusts in the departments of psychiatry around the UK. The crisis team based<br />
at Pilgrim Hospital, Boston receives 1300 referrals per year approximately. Not only is it important to know what the sources of referrals<br />
to a crisis team are, but it is helpful to survey where the patients are discharged to at the time when a case is closed by the crisis team.<br />
This information will have implications in terms of service provision, as well as targeting potential sources of referrals in terms of psychoeducation<br />
of not only service users, but also of referring agencies at different tiers of mental health services, from a general practitioner<br />
to a care provider in the community.<br />
Objectives and Methods: To ascertain sources of referrals to a crisis team and the destination to which service users were discharged at<br />
the time of closure of a case by the crisis team.<br />
Results and Conclusion: N = 92 records of service users were randomly selected. They all completed their journey through the crisis team<br />
