Gender Differences in Ratings of Criminal Thinking, Psychosocial Functioning, and Response to Treatment for Individuals in Correctional Substance Abuse Treatment

Previous criminal justice research has shown that incarcerated substance abusing females and males of diverse racial groups differ both in the attitudes and behaviors that they bring to treatment, in addition to their specific treatment needs. Utilizing the Texas Christian University (TCU) Criminal Justice Client Evaluation of Self and Treatment (CJ-CEST), this study addresses the questions of gender differences on mean responses to Criminal Thinking, Psychosocial Functioning, and Response to Treatment scales, gender differences with respect to the degree to which Criminal Thinking and Psychosocial scales predict responses to substance abuse treatment; and gender and racial interactions to gain a larger perspective of how these variables influence one another.
