摘要

背景刑满释放后的重新犯罪率给社会和经济带来了巨大挑战，全球多达一半的刑满释放人员在两年内重新犯罪。虽然基于 "风险-需求-反应 "模型的心理干预措施旨在解决这一问题，但近期的研究突出表明这些措施效果不佳。在澳大利亚，"EQUIPS "计划套件提供了创新的模块式剂量，以满足个人的评估需求和犯罪风险。本研究探讨了 EQUIPS 计划中的模块化剂量对减少释放后 12 个月内严重重新犯罪的影响。本研究采用逻辑回归法了解 4345 名在首次监禁期间（2015-2018 年）被转至 EQUIPS 的参与者的剂量反应关系。这些分析评估了完成 0 个项目与 1 个项目以及 1 个项目与 2 个项目的效果，并通过反概率加权解决了潜在的自我选择偏差。然而，在进行敏感性分析时，如果将未完成治疗的参与者包括在内，则不再观察到这种效应。结论与单一项目相比，增加 EQUIPS 项目的模块化剂量并不能减少释放后 12 个月内的再犯罪率。只有在对 56% 完成所有治疗课程的参与者进行分析时，才会发现只实施一项课程比不实施任何课程更有益处。强调量身定制的治疗强度和内容以及响应性，可能会更有意义地减少累犯。

The efficacy of ‘modular dosage’ in prison-based psychological interventions to reduce recidivism: A state-wide naturalistic study of convicted people in Australian prisons

Background

Criminal reoffending rates post-release from custody pose significant societal and economic challenges, with up to half of the world's released prisoners reoffending within two years. While psychological interventions based on the Risk-Needs-Responsivity model aim to address this issue, recent research highlights their inefficacy. The ‘EQUIPS’ suite of programs delivers innovative modular-style dosage to meet individual assessed needs and risk of offending, on a large scale in Australia. This study explores the impact of modular dosage in EQUIPS programs on reducing serious reoffending in the 12-months post-release.

Methods

This study employs logistic regression to understand the dose-response relationship in 4345 participations who were referred to EQUIPS during their first incarceration episode (2015–2018). These analyses assess the effects of completing 0 vs. 1 program and 1 vs. 2 programs, addressing potential self-selection bias through inverse probability weighting.

Results

Completing 1 vs. 0 program was associated with a 24 % decrease in serious reoffending within the first-year post-release. However, this effect was no longer observed in sensitivity analyses when including participants who did not complete treatment. Completing 2 vs. 1 program was not associated with additional reduction in recidivism.

Conclusion

Increasing modular dosage of EQUIPS programs did not reduce recidivism in the 12-months post-release from custody, compared to a single program. The benefits of one compared to no programs were only observed when analyses were restricted to the 56 % of participants who completed all treatment sessions. Emphasising tailored treatment intensity and content, along with responsivity, may yield more meaningful reductions in recidivism.

期刊介绍： The Journal of Criminal Justice is an international journal intended to fill the present need for the dissemination of new information, ideas and methods, to both practitioners and academicians in the criminal justice area. The Journal is concerned with all aspects of the criminal justice system in terms of their relationships to each other. Although materials are presented relating to crime and the individual elements of the criminal justice system, the emphasis of the Journal is to tie together the functioning of these elements and to illustrate the effects of their interactions. Articles that reflect the application of new disciplines or analytical methodologies to the problems of criminal justice are of special interest. Since the purpose of the Journal is to provide a forum for the dissemination of new ideas, new information, and the application of new methods to the problems and functions of the criminal justice system, the Journal emphasizes innovation and creative thought of the highest quality.
