Moral Reconation Therapy for People on Federal Probation: Determining Program Efficacy and Importance as a Measure in Reducing Rates of Recidivism
Moral reconation therapy (MRT) is one form of cognitive-behavioral treatment that has been implemented in institutionalized settings to rehabilitate justice-involved individuals. However, the efficacy of this program in reducing recidivism has not been widely assessed for people on federal probation. This study collected data on 1080 people on probation from one federal district. Half of the participants ( n = 540) had participated in MRT, while …
Using the Personality Assessment Inventory to Measure Antagonism and Disinhibition Domains: Associations with Psychiatric History and Externalizing Life Events in a Forensic Sample
The Alternative Model for Personality Disorder is an emerging personality pathology model that includes dimensional personality impairment and traits. Although there is substantial research on this model, there is limited work on the psychometric properties of the corresponding measures in criminal-legal samples. The purpose of the present study was to validate the Personality Assessment Inventory’s Antagonism and Disinhibition domain and facet s…
An Examination of Individual Differences and Factor Structure on the LS/CMI: Does This Popular Risk Assessment Tool Measure Up
The Level of Service/Case Management Index (LS/CMI) is the most commonly used case management tool among frontline criminal justice officials. However, the newest revision has been understudied. Literature suggests significant differences on Level of Service Inventory (LSI) and LSI–Revised subcomponents and total scores among various offender populations. Such differences, along with an overall lack of psychometric information, have significant i…
An examination of the self-medication hypothesis via treatment completion
A long-held clinical belief is that many of the mentally ill seek relief from their symptoms through the use of alcohol and other illicit substances. The notion of self-medication became formalized in the literature via the self-medication hypothesis (SMH) of addictive disorders (Khantzian, ). This study attempted to examine the role of treatment completion for the SMH by examining 696 participants in a dual diagnosis program. Logistic regression…

A comparison of methamphetamine and nonmethamphetamine users in a dual diagnosis facility
Methamphetamine use is currently on the rise; however patients who use methamphetamine have consistently shown poor treatment results. The current study examined 14 factors in order to assess if any served as predictors of methamphetamine use. Data were collected from a Midwestern dual diagnosis substance abuse facility. Results indicate that nine of the 14 predictors entered into the model were significantly related to methamphetamine use. Impli…
Empathic Deficits Among Male Batterers: A Multidimensional Approach
The effects of Daubert on the adissibility of expert testimony in state and federal criminal cases
The effects of Daubert on the admissibility of expert testimony in state and federal criminal cases
Appellate opinions were evaluated on variables related to expert admissibility to assess the effects of Daubert v. Merrell Dow Pharmaceuticals, Inc. in criminal cases. Analysis reveals changes in appellate courts’ consideration of Frye v. United States, the 4 Daubert criteria, and several Federal Rules of Evidence. The importance of Frye and the general acceptance criterion decreased over time, and the importance of the Daubert criteria increased…
Effect of Modality in Earwitness Identification: Memory for Verbal and Nonverbal Auditory Stimuli Presented in Two Contexts
Psycholegal researchers have largely ignored the relevance of nonverbal auditory information in earwitness memory, nor have they compared its retention with visual or verbal information. Memory of nonverbal auditory stimuli was investigated in two different contexts. In Experiment 1, participants recalled more sounds (i.e., nonverbal auditory stimuli) than the sounds' verbal labels. However, with a more ecologically valid method in Experiment 2, …
