Produktinformationen zu „The Assessment and Treatment of Women Offenders / Wiley Series in Forensic Clinical Psychology (PDF)“
There is a large body of research that provides guidance for those
working with offenders on how they should be treated once they are
in the correctional system. The problem is that most, if not all
this research has been conducted on all male populations and it is
assumed that women offenders are the same. However, women have
different needs and support systems than men in some areas of their
lives and it is unclear whether all research based on men can be
generalized in this way.
The book provides a review of the research literature to guide
evidence-based practice in the assessment and treatment of adult
female offenders. An historical overview of women's crime and
imprisonment will be followed by a global review of various
theories of female criminality. The remainder of the book
reviews the psychology of criminal conduct, with a specific focus
on three psychological principles of effective intervention: risk,
need and responsivity. Respectively, these principles set the
"who", "what" and "how" for
correctional intervention.
