Prävention von Extremismus, Radikalisierung und Terrorismus
A meta-evaluative synthesis of the effects of custodial and community-based offender rehabilitation
We synthesize 53 meta-analyses on the effectiveness of correctional treatment applied to a wide variety of offender groups delivered in either custodial or community-based settings. Those meta-analyses revealed positive overall effects on reoffending of correctional treatment delivered in both settings. However, the treatment setting is also associated with complex moderator effects. With respect to effect size, for most groups, community-based c…
Vollzugslockerungen und Legalbewährung bei inhaftierten Sexualstraftätern
Vollzugsöffnende Maßnahmen sind ein wichtiger Bestandteil des auf Resozialisierung ausgelegten Strafvollzugs. Obwohl ihre rückfallpräventive Wirkung theoretisch plausibel ist, gibt es wenig Forschung zum Zusammenhang zwischen Vollzugslockerungen und Rückfälligkeit, die detailliert Unterschiede und Rückfalldaten von gelockerten und nicht gelockerten Straftätern analysiert. Die vorliegende Studie untersucht, welche Risikofaktoren mit vollzugsöffnen…
Evaluation der Behandlung von Sexualtätern im Strafvollzug
Sexual offending is a hot topic in many countries. Besides punishment, treatment is widespread to reduce reoffending. However, there is much controversy about treatment. Meta-analyses have shown mean positive effects, but these are often small and sometimes negative in prisons. As they often contain methodological problems, we carried out a well-controlled evaluation with 1200 sexual offenders in Bavaria. The data stem from 7 social-therapeutic i…
Lehrbuch Rechtspsychologie
Die Rechtspsychologie ist ein faszinierendes Feld: Sowohl in der forensischen Psychologie als auch in der Kriminalpsychologie geht es darum, psychologische Theorien, Methoden und Erkenntnisse auf die umfangreichen Fragestellungen des Rechtswesens anzuwenden. Die Rechtspsychologie stellt somit ihr psychologisches Fachwissen der Gesellschaft zur Verfügung. Das Fach umfasst empirische Grundlagenforschung ebenso wie Diagnostik und Behandlung (etwa im…
Meta-Analysis on the Effects of Family- Oriented Prevention in German-Speaking Countries
Most research on developmental prevention programs stems from Anglo-American countries. However, in German-speaking European countries, there is also a broad range of family-oriented programs to promote child development and prevent behavioral problems. This article presents a meta-analysis of n = 79 studies on family-based prevention that had a comparison group and were performed in Germany, Austria, or Switzerland. Overall, the data contained 1…
Retracing participants in longitudinal studies
Retaining participants in longitudinal studies is important but challenging when retracing them after a substantial gap between study phases. Utilising our nine year mixed-methods longitudinal study of 54 families affected by paternal imprisonment, we qualitatively analysed our processes and experiences of retracing participants after a seven year gap in contact. Paying attention to the spatio-temporal features that are traditionally an analytica…
“Mixed” Sexual Offending Against Both Children and Adults
Individuals who sexually offended against both children and adults might be particularly dangerous. However, studies on this group are rare due to methodological difficulties. We investigated adverse childhood experiences, criminological variables, and other characteristics as well as recidivism in individuals who sexually offended against mixed-aged victims (ISOMAVs) compared to individuals who exclusively offended against adults (ISOAs) or chil…
Left-wing extremist violence
Während in den vergangenen Jahren die Forschung zum politisch rechtsorientierten und religiös-islamistischen Extremismus zunahm, blieb eine ähnliche Entwicklung beim Linksextremismus aus. Die vorliegende Studie untersucht spezifische Risiko- und Schutzfaktoren des Linksextremismus. Die Daten stammen aus einer Onlinebefragung mit 144 potentiellen Linksextremen, die wir mittels eines Online-Fragebogens u. a. über einschlägige linksaffine und -extre…
Therapieauflagen und Nachsorge bei haftentlassenen Sexualstraftätern
Die ambulante Behandlung entlassener Sexualstraftäter hat in den letzten Jahren zunehmend an Bedeutung gewonnen. Insbesondere seit der Reform der Führungsaufsicht 2006 wurde das Nachsorgeangebot für Haftentlassene sukzessive ausgebaut. Ein Großteil der nachbehandelten Sexualstraftäter wird über Bewährungsauflagen oder Weisungen der Führungsaufsicht an eine Nachsorgeeinrichtung angebunden, bislang gibt es aber kaum Informationen darüber, wie häufi…
Die Erfassung der Deliktschwere in Evaluationsstudien zur Straftäterbehandlung
Zur Beurteilung des Behandlungserfolgs im Strafvollzug ist die Rückfälligkeit das zentrale Erfolgskriterium. Die Schwere der Rückfälle wird dabei oft nicht berücksichtigt, obgleich eine verringerte Rückfallschwere bzw. Opferschädigung als weiterer Indikator für eine erfolgreiche Behandlung betrachtet werden kann. In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird ein objektives Instrument zur Erfassung der Deliktschwere vorgestellt, das auf den gesetzlich vorgegebe…
Prisoners’ Families, Penal Power, and the Referred Pains of Imprisonment
This chapter develops the analysis of the ‘punishment beyond the legal offender’. It illustrates how parental imprisonment was experienced differently within and across families, and while not all experiences were negative, there were common experiences of hardship. The chapter considers these personal and social hardships ‘referred pains of imprisonment’. Its analysis shows how these experiences were shaped by the direct contact families had wit…
Intelligence as a protective factor against offending
Rehabilitation of the Offender
Re‐framing the Analysis
This article highlights three dimensions to understanding children's well‐being during and after parental imprisonment which have not been fully explored in current research. A consideration of ‘time’ reveals the importance of children's past experiences and their anticipated futures. A focus on ‘space’ highlights the impact of new or altered environmental dynamics. A study of ‘agency’ illuminates how children cope within structural, material and…
Male prisoners’ family relationships and resilience in resettlement
Theories of social bonding and social capital support the argument that positive family relationships are important for resilience in resettlement after release from prison. However, this topic has rarely been addressed in prospective longitudinal studies of resettlement processes. This study gathered interview data from 39 family pairs of British male prisoners and their (ex-)partners before and after release. Questions on the father’s relations…
Children’s contact with their imprisoned fathers and the father–child relationship following release
This article investigates children’s contact with their imprisoned fathers and the influence on their relationships following release. It is based on data from a mixed-methods prospective longitudinal study of 45 children (aged four to 18) in England whose fathers had played an active role in their lives prior to the prison sentence. The study found that face-to-face contact and telephone calls correlated significantly with the father–child relat…

The predictive efficiency of school bullying versus later offending
Background Although bullying and delinquency share similar risk factors, no previous systematic review has ever been conducted to examine possible links between school bullying and criminal offending later in life. Aims To investigate the extent to which bullying perpetration at school predicts offending later in life, and whether this relation holds after controlling for other major childhood risk factors. Method Results are based on a thorough …

Effects of Child Skills Training in Preventing Antisocial Behavior
This article reports a meta-analysis on social skills training as a measure for preventing antisocial behavior in children and youth. From 851 documents, 84 reports containing 135 comparisons between treated and untreated youngsters ( N = 16,723) fulfilled stepwise eligibility criteria (e.g., randomized control-group design, focus on prevention). Despite a wide range of positive and negative effect sizes, the majority confirmed the benefits of tr…
Emotional and antisocial outcomes of bullying and victimization at school
Purpose Although school bullying is an important social problem, its long‐term relation to mental health and behavioural outcomes is rarely investigated. The purpose of this paper is to address the relation between bullying in childhood and behavioural and emotional problems in adolescence. Design/methodology/approach Bullying and victimization were assessed in a sample of 557 German children (mean age 9 years). Nearly five years later anxious, d…
What Works’ and the Correctional Services Accreditation Panel
This article provides an ‘insider’ perspective on the work of the Correctional Services Accreditation Panel (CSAP) of England and Wales, a key plank of the government’s ‘What Works’ strategy and in particular its aim of reducing re-offending through the development of ‘gold standard’, ‘evidence-based’ interventions (principally — but not exclusively — offending behaviour programmes). The article begins with a brief discussion of the concept of ac…
