830-cdfba -- Crime, Delinquency & Forensic Behavior Analysis SIG
About 830-cdfba	English (USA)
"1 in 35 people in the U.S. alone are involved with the Criminal Justice System. The ABA:I Crime, Delinquency and Forensic Behavior Analysis SIG is committed to working diligently to provide information on the effectiveness of behavior analytic interventions to prevent crime and rehabilitate offenders. These include treatment for addictions, arson, and sex offenders. Community reinforcement approach for addictions is one of the few-evidenced based practices for addictions to gain national and international acceptance. The American Psychological Association list behavior modification as an empirically supported treatment for sex offenders. In the area of delinquency, behavioral parent training is a well-established treatment for oppositional defiant disorder and conduct disorder, which are often forerunners to adolescent delinquency. Finally, behaviorally oriented residential treatment programs such as teaching family homes are listed by the surgeon general as promising for children and adolescents with conduct disorders. This SIG is both a science and practice SIG. It attempts to work with federal state and local prison authorities to provide information as well as to their families and loved ones. In addition, the goal is to provide future research in the area of rehabilitation. That support extends to prisoners paroled, discharged or integrated through community corrections programs, as well as thousands in county jails throughout the world. This includes working to reform sentencing laws, advocating for more and better job training and education for prisoners, improvement of reintegration of prisoners to society and working to eliminate racial profiling and employment discrimination of convicted felons. The crime and delinquency SIG strives to reduce crime through the application of behavioral principles and by promoting a policy of criminal justice reform to include these interventions. Finally, the SIG plans to explore forensic applications of behavior analysis. We will invite speakers to discuss report writing and testifying."
