Meta-Analysis of Rehabilitation Programs for Juvenile Delinquents
A Brief Report

A meta-analysis of 46 studies of intervention programs for juvenile delinquents revealed a significant difference between programs that included a cognitive component and those that did not. Cognitive programs were more than twice as effective as non-cognitive programs. These results are consistent with previous qualitative analyses and provide support for a cognitive model of offender rehabilitation.
