Aggression replacement training : evaluation of a program for young offenders

Torchin, Stephanie January 2003 (has links)
The Aggression Replacement Training Program (ART) is an approach to reduce aggression in Young Offenders. This program was implemented with a sample of youths on probation and living in the community (N = 21). The goal was to evaluate the efficacy of the program, and to measure changes in aggression, skill acquisition and recidivism rates. A quasi-experimental nonequivalent control group design was used. The Aggression Questionnaire and Skillstreaming Checklist were the main source of data and results were compared pre- and posttest. Recidivism rates were determined six months after the start of the program. An improvement in aggression scores was found in the ART sample, but this was not statistically significant. Only 5.8% of the total sample that had recidivated, committed an aggressive crime. Recommendations are made to maximize the efficacy of the ART program for the future.

Villa St. Rose Group Home Study

Finkle, William H., Hooper, Robert M., Friedman, Barry A., Jacobs, Donna L., Peterson, Julia C. 01 January 1972 (has links)
There has been a gradual move from the exclusive use of institutions for delinquent adolescents as a treatment resource to a realization that institutions need a variety of treatment methods in order to rehabilitate delinquents and other adolescents with adjustment problems. Villa St. Rose is an example of an institution which has acknowledged the effectiveness of developing a therapeutic milieu based on a professional institutional program supported by community treatment in the form of a group home experience.

ASSERTION TRAINING AS A SHORT TERM TREATMENT METHOD WITH LONG TERM INCARCERATED JUVENILE DELINQUENTS.

WHITTINGTON, CAROL KRISTI. January 1982 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of assertion training as a short-term treatment approach with long-term incarcerated male juvenile delinquents. Delinquent behavior has been conceptualized by some researchers as a manifestation of situation-specific social-behavioral skill deficits. It has been suggested that some individuals behave maladaptively because they lack the appropriate skills. Assertion training focuses on the acquisition of situation-specific social-behavioral skills. Assertion training has often been used for increasing a person's self-worth and interactional skills. It was hoped that this study would provide evidence to support assertion training as a systematic and effective tool for enhancing the delinquent's repertoire of social-behavioral skills, enabling him to interact more appropriately within the institution and providing him with new skills which can benefit him upon reintegration into the community. A pre-test-post-test control group design was utilized. The population consisted of male incarcerated juvenile delinquents. Forty-four were randomly assigned to an experimental and control group. Criterion measures were given to all subjects during the first and last week of the training. The experimental group received assertion training which utilized the techniques of behavior-rehearsal, modeling, coaching, and homework. Significant results beyond the .05 level of confidence were obtained on four of the five hypotheses. The groups differed in assertiveness, aggressiveness, and aggressive behavior. The groups did not differ in submissiveness. The data indicate that assertion training is effective as a short-term treatment method with long-term incarcerated juvenile delinquents.
