Sažetak
The purpose of this paper is familiarizing with, so far insuffi ciently explored, specifi c characteristics of female children and youth
with behavioral disorders in the Republic of Croatia. The study was conducted on a sample of 237 female children and youth with
behaviour disorders who, at the time of research, were included in institutional treatment, day treatment or community treatment
programs (three subsamples). Specifi c goals of the paper are related to determination of the level and specifi c areas of risk and the
signifi cance of differences in the assessed risk levels for benefi ciaries across multiple types of treatment. Further goal is to research
relationships between the estimated areas of risk with other, for treatment important areas, such as strengths, needs, family life circumstances
and individual characteristics of minors. The instrument Youth Level of Service/Case Management Inventory (YLS/CMI)
was applied. It’s intention is to assess level of risk and needs of children and youth in order to determine required level of service as
well as prediction of treatment outcome and future behavior. To process the obtained data, robust discriminant analysis and quasi
correlation analysis were used. Robust discriminatory analysis fortifi es statistically signifi cant difference in almost all observed risk
areas between examinees from three subsamples. Results of quasy correlation analysis indicate the existence of signifi cant relationships
between assessed areas of risk and other assessed and for treatment important areas. The highest correlation among quasy
canonical factors is obtained for the association of areas of risk and characteristics of minors, what indicates the extreme complexity
of the population of female minors with behavioral disorders, as seen entirety and by subsamples. In accordance with levels of risk,
treatment needs and responsiveness, suggestions about the components of treatment for each of the three groups of female minors are
contained in the paper.
