چکیده مقاله
Recent advances in psychology and psychiatry indicate that certain mental disorders beyond insanity and other well recognized psychiatric conditions can significantly impair an individual's ability to think, understand, and exercise free will For this reason, a detailed and comprehensive review of Iran's criminal laws, particularly the Islamic Penal Code, and their alignment with modern psychological and psychiatric research is essential Such an examination facilitates the determination of criminal responsibility for offenders with various mental disorders and supports the development of appropriate and effective legal responses to their conduct These individuals remain members of society who require special protective consideration from lawmakers Since not all mental disorders completely eliminate a person's capacity for free will, determining the degree of criminal responsibility in each case is critically important One such condition is the adult child disorder, in which an individual is an adult by age and appearance but possesses cognitive abilities similar to those of a child This study examines the criminal responsibility of such adults under Iranian law and, for comparison, under the laws of selected other countries Because these individuals cannot fully comprehend the consequences of their actions, they present complex and sensitive challenges at the intersection of law and psychology, requiring a fair, just, and flexible legal approach Using a library based research method, the study concludes that while these individuals cannot be held criminally accountable to the same extent as others, tailored rehabilitative and protective measures should be adopted in accordance with their psychological age In certain circumstances, an adjusted or proportionate form of punishment may also be appropriate
