Abstract A treatment model for female inmates who had been physically or sexually abused was described, implemented and evaluated. The hypotheses that during the 16-week program inmates would show: (a) increased self-esteem; (b) increased perceived control over their lives; (c) increased trust in others; and (d) reduced alienation from others were tested by comparing measures of these attitudes prior to and every 4 weeks during the 16-week treatment program. Results from the 15 inmates who completed the program were analyzed by an ANOVA for repeated measures and indicated (a) increased self-esteem (p < .001); (b) increased trust in others (p < .05); (c) reduced alienation (p < .01) and (d) a marginally significant increase in perceived control (p < .07). Applications and limitations of the program were discussed

Abstract Inmates of the Texas Department of Corrections enrolled in basic education classes were studied to analyze the effect of teaching style on the moral development of the students. Teaching style was measured by the Principles of Adult Learning Scale (PALS), which determines the degree to which a teacher adopts a pedagogical or andragogical style. Moral judgment, based on Kohlberg's theory, was measured by the Ethical Reasoning Inventory (ERI). The purpose of the study was to determine what effect teaching style alone, independent of a moral education program or curriculum, would have on the development of moral judgment in prison inmates. Results can be used for curriculum and teacher-training components in correctional education programs.

Abstract In a study done at Eastern New York Correctional Facility, results showed that an inverse relationship existed between education and the need for social distance. As education increased, social distance decreased. These results indicate that academic programs in prison may reduce the desire and expression of social distance. In turn, education appears to be a factor in understanding the dynamics of prison life among the various ethnic/racial groups for this population.

Abstract Cognitive-behavioral training procedures were designed to enhance social problem-solving and impulse-control skills of delinquent adolescents. A multiple baseline design across subjects and tasks and an alternating-treatments design were used. Five youths participated in training which involved the acquisition of a problem-solving strategy for one set of problems and increasing impulse-control through self-instructions for the second set of problems. Two different forms of hypothetical social problems were presented in individual sessions. The results showed improvement in both problem-solving and impulse-control responses as a result of treatment. The alternating-treatments design showed that some of the youths generalized the use of training procedures to untrained problems. Follow-up data suggested that maintenance of treatment gains occurred for most of the youths. General improvements in the youths' social behavior outside of the therapy sessions were addressed in terms of anecdotal information.

Abstract Assessment is made of the cost-savings represented by the use of volunteer services within a probation and parole agency for a 12-month period. Results indicated that volunteer services represented cost savings in excess of $145,000 for the year, and that these services represented an average of 6.33 FTEs per month.

Abstract Data collected from 346 inmates at the Eastern Correctional Facility in New York State support the hypothesis that educational programs on the college level and above are more important than Family Reunion Programs in promoting behavior in prison. While prior studies have shown that participation in the Family Reunion Programs enhances social control, these data suggest that social control is only enhanced by Family Reunion Programs among those participants who do not have a college education.

Abstract Detention of juveniles means holding a minor in custody until someone, somewhere, under vague circumstances determines the best course of action for the youngster. Since standards and goals for such detention are often vague, a wide variety of citizen action groups have attempted to develop criteria for secure detention. This article examines the issues which surround this detention of young people, and specifically looks at Westchester County, in New York State, as it attempts to comply with the increasing number of juveniles held due to New York State's Juvenile Offender Law. The length of stay, violation of the “least restrictive principle” and the negative effects in youth are all discussed. The author concludes that new statutory criteria must be developed for admission of youths to secure facilities and that the burden of proof must be on the state and not on the youth about to be detained.

Abstract The ethical role of the juvenile probation officer is examined regarding the adolescent sex offender. A hypothetical model is presented in order to illustrate the need for role consonant treatment models. The applicability of the proffered model to other offender populations is presented, also stressing the appropriate role of the juvenile probation officer. Concomitant issues are explored, especially in relation to standardized regimens which would facilitate appropriate assessment of referrals, aid staff training, and remain efficacious.
