Psychological Interventions and Responses to Offending
Write a critical review of the effectiveness of a behavioural intervention aimed at reducing recidivism. You are free to choose any behavioural intervention and target population.
You should consider the theoretical underpinnings of the chosen intervention as well as the available evidence for its effectiveness in reducing recidivism.
You are expected to draw on a wide base of literature beyond what is provided in the handbook. You are strongly advised to use databases, such PsycINFO and Scopus, to search for literature.
This report will be an exercise in concise technical writing. You will need to decide on the most important theories, findings and debates to include in your report.
