The effectiveness of rehabilitation and deterrence has often been questioned because of the high probability of re-offending after correctional rehabilitation. Based on this challenging fact, I wonder if you could give me some suggestions?

Great observation! It is true for some correctional systems to widely use interventions, including punishment and control-oriented programs in the hope of reducing recidivism. However, those that focus on changing anti-social traits and improving self-control and problem-solving skills were found to be more effective. Moreover, others also associate education programs and vocational training with improved opportunities for employment after release.

Hi, I realized that it seems the concept “outcome” is different from the term “output”. Taking the grandparent training project as an example, what is the “outcome’ referable?
