The United Center: A Community-Based Corrections Project

Conceptual clarification of dimensions in the treatment environment of a residential unit for young offenders is the purpose of the study. The sensitizing ideas of structure, control, contemporaneous, and developmental matching from the Conceptual Level Matching Model (Hunt, 1971) inform the study. Besides specification of the types, quality, and settings of staff-youth interactions, components of a highly structured environment are described. Several strategies promoting the developmental and contemporaneous environment matched to youths who need high structure are illustrated. The tension of implementing those characteristics necessary for contemporaneous and those required for developmental matching is discussed, and certain activities that manage the tension are described.

A pilot participant observation study of the environment in a program for young offenders from a Conceptual Level Matching Model perspective

The Few empirical studies that exist on correctional halfway houses focus on recidivism and cost-effectiveness. There have been few attempts to identify the factors within a halfway house program that may influence its effectiveness. The present study examined the relationship between staff attributes and the value placed upon different programs. Through a correlational analysis, various personality and attitudinal characteristics of staff were found related to program ratings. Such data can be seen as helpful in staff selection and training and program development.
