摘要
目的:了解法官的观点对于美国法院系统成功采用创伤知情(TI)方法至关重要,但人们对这一主题知之甚少。我们探讨了法官对 TI 实践的态度和经验,以帮助填补这一空白:我们对 91 名北卡罗来纳州地区法院法官进行了调查,评估了他们对创伤知情实践 (TI) 的态度、创伤知情实践 (TIP) 的使用、以前接受的创伤教育以及对不同司法目标的支持。我们进行了独立样本 t 检验和泊松回归分析,以比较从事少年司法工作的法官和非从事少年司法工作的法官的态度、TIPs 使用情况和教育经历;进行了描述性统计,以检查参与不同 TIPs 的比率;进行了双变量相关分析,以评估 TI 实践结果与司法目标之间的关联:分析表明,在少年法庭和成人法庭工作的法官对创伤教育方法的态度更为积极,对创伤教育的参与度更高;参与度最低的创伤教育方法与政策和程序有关;对创伤教育实践的积极态度与对康复和恢复的支持之间存在很强的正相关性:研究结果强调了在创建更多技术倡议法院的运动中需要发展的领域,例如加强对成人刑事系统中技术倡议实践的支持,以及实施与政策、程序和结果相关的技术倡议,而不仅仅是沟通。研究结果还支持技术倡议方法与惩罚性较弱的司法实践之间的联系,表明技术倡议司法实践在将我们的法律体系转向更具变革性的司法形式方面可以发挥潜在作用。(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, all rights reserved)。
Judges' attitudes and experiences related to a trauma-informed approach: An exploratory study.
Objective: Understanding judges' views is crucial to the successful adoption of a trauma-informed (TI) approach in the U.S. court system, yet little is known on this topic. We explored judges' attitudes of and experiences with TI practice to help fill this gap.
Method: We surveyed 91 North Carolina district court judges, assessing their attitudes related to TI practice, use of trauma-informed practices (TIPs), previous trauma education, and support for different justice goals. We conducted independent-samples t tests and Poisson regression analyses to compare attitudes, use of TIPs, and education experiences between judges working in juvenile justice and those not in juvenile justice; descriptive statistics to examine rates of engagement with different TIPs; and bivariate correlation analyses to assess associations between TI practice outcomes and justice goals.
Results: Analyses revealed more favorable attitudes toward a TI approach and greater engagement with trauma education among judges working in juvenile versus adult courts; TIPs with the lowest levels of engagement related to policies and procedures; and strong positive correlations between favorable TI practice attitudes and support for rehabilitation and restoration.
Conclusion: Findings highlight areas for growth in the movement to create more TI courts, such as strengthening support for TI practice in the adult criminal system and implementing TIPs related to policies, procedures, and outcomes, not just communication. Findings also support the connection between a TI approach and less punitive justice practices, signaling the potential role that TI judicial practice can play in shifting our legal system toward more transformative forms of justice.
