Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of this study is to explore if individual CFT-based intervention with exposure training in virtual reality decreases conduct disorder symptoms and callous-unemoitonal traits , as well as increases subjective emotional welbeing among 15-to-20 year-old male prisoners and boys placed to state's residential schools. We will also study factors that may predict adherence to the intervention. These factors include mental well-being, motivation, and working alliance. In addition, we will evaluate the costs of the program.
