We certainly agree with this perspective and suggest that this approach runs counter to the Good Lives Model (GLM) with its focus on poorly defined concepts such as “happiness” or “knowledge,” which would likely be defined differently for each member of a given group. We can certainly understand why the RTCSOTP is regarded as something more than a traditional relapse prevention-based program, given the range of treatment targets addressed. It was with this in mind that we developed what we called an integrated approach to RNR (RNR-I), which is described in detail in Chapter 5.
It was with these limitations in mind that we decided to write this book. This perspective is supported by research findings in a variety of domains. Needless to say, the application of such skills as applied to high-risk groups of offenders requires a certain degree of commitment and patience from staff involved in such programs. Nonetheless, as discussed by Marshall & Burton (2010) there are few studies that have specifically addressed the relative contributions of these two admittedly important aspects of treatment efficacy at least as related to sex offender treatment.
2006) who found a sub-group of high PCL-R subjects who may have been responsive to treatment. However, the high PCL-R offenders whose risk was not rated as having changed showed a significantly higher recidivism rate, as one would expect on the basis of their PCL-R score alone. The two studies used different measures of offender participation, which may well have influenced the findings. In future research we hope to investigate whether the apparent contradiction in the findings between these two studies are simply related to the discrepant operational definitions of treatment behavior.
