  • Title: Treatment of incarcerated offenders. Possibilities and problems.
    Author: Eisenman R.
    Journal: Acta Paedopsychiatr; 1992; 55(3):159-62. PubMed ID: 1414350.
    Abstract:
    The author discusses in detail the operations of a prison treatment program for youthful offenders. Although a model program and an exception to the typical prison, the treatment program had problems. One is the inherent difficulty of working with anti-social people. The other, analyzed in detail, is the unpleasant nature of many of the prison staff, several of whom were unqualified to work in a treatment setting. Suggestions are made for humanizing the staff.
