[17/06/2009] CVP at Stockholm Criminology Symposium

 

The Stockholm Criminology Symposium 2009 takes place June 22-24 at Stockholm University and researchers from CVP will be presenting in two seperate seminars.

 

On June 24 CVP co-workers Axel Fors and Ingrid Freij will present the results from recidivism evaluations of three different treatment programs used within the Swedish prison and probation service: "Breaking with crime" (in Swedish: Brotts-Brytet), One-to-One och the 12-step program plus an analysis of the possible financial gains of the 12-step program.

 

Later the same day another CVP co-worker, Mats Dernevik, will talk about the prediction of violent recidivism for people convicted of politically motivated violence; terrorism. Read the english summary of that paper here.
