Abstract

Abstract:The main aim of this article is to summarize the best available evidence (from systematic reviews) of the eff ectiveness of 12 types of interventions in reducing juvenile off ending and antisocial behaviour. In the interests of making the results widely understandable to researchers, practitioners, policy makers, and the general public, all eff ect sizes are converted into percentage decreases in antisocial behaviour or off ending. Based on the most important systematic review in each category, the most eff ective interventions are parent training, focused deterrence, child skills training, cognitive-behavioural therapy, mentoring, and family therapy. Anti-bullying programs, anti-cyberbullying programs, and pre-court diversion programs are quite eff ective, while school exclusion reduction, aft er-school programs, and boot camps are least eff ective. Th e good news is that, based on estimated reductions in off ending, intervention programs are usually found to be much more eff ective than is commonly believed (based on other measures).

12种干预措施在减少青少年犯罪和反社会行为方面的效果

摘要:本文的主要目的是总结12种干预措施在减少青少年犯罪和反社会行为方面的有效性的最佳证据。为了使研究人员、从业人员、政策制定者和公众广泛理解研究结果，所有的效应量都被转换成反社会行为或不良行为减少的百分比。根据每个类别中最重要的系统回顾，最有效的干预措施是父母培训、集中威慑、儿童技能培训、认知行为疗法、指导和家庭治疗。反欺凌项目、反网络欺凌项目和法庭前转移项目非常有效，而减少学校排斥、课后项目和新兵训练营的效果最差。好消息是，根据对自杀减少的估计，干预方案通常比通常认为的(基于其他措施)更有效。
