65.What does a “continuum of sanctions” mean in the sentencing process? If you were a judge, how would you applythis continuum?ANSWER:Figure 1.1 shows the wide variety of community-based sanctions available, includingresidential programs (e.g., halfway houses and therapeutic communities), economicsanctions (e.g., restitution, fines, and forfeitures), and nonresidential or outpatientoptions (e.g., probation, parole, and electronic monitoring). As a judge, I would applythis continuum by comparing the risks and needs presented by the offender to theability of the chosen sanction to control the risk and meet the needs. At the mostrestrictive\punitive end of the continuum, I would reserve institutional corrections onlyfor those offenses warranting retributive sentencing or to prevent any further crime bythe offender until programming could be completed addressing the needs of theoffender that would serve to diminish the probability of future criminal acts. As thedegree of risk and severity of needs decrease, the sanction chosen from the continuumwould be reduced commensurately all the way down to regular probation.REFERENCES:The Correctional DilemmaLEARNING OBJECTIVES:COBC.ALAR.13.5 - 466. What recent factors have contributed to correctional growth?ANSWER:Box 1.1 shows the latest government statistics regarding the number of peoplecurrently on some form of correctional supervision. As of December 31, 2006 therewere 4.2 million offenders on probation, and nearly 800,000 on parole, which isconsiderably more than the 2.3 million offenders incarcerated in jail and prison. Overthe last 7 years, there was an average increase of 2.4 percent of prisoners and 1.7percent of those on community supervision each year in the corrections system(Bonczar 2008; Glaze & Bonczar 2008). The number of female offenders has grownas well, although women have always been underrepresented in the criminal justicesystem in comparison to their numbers in the general population. Sources say that inthe last 15 years, the number of women on probation and parole has doubled. Whilethis sounds like a lot, women still comprise only 12 percent of all parolees and 23percent of probationers today.Although the increase is showing signs of slowing down some, the rise of convictedoffenders is directly related to a number of factors including: changes in sentencinglaws, an increase of probation and parole violators returning to prison, a decreased rateof release on discretionary parole, and differential police responses to drug offenses(Beck 2000).REFERENCES:The Correctional DilemmaLEARNING OBJECTIVES:COBC.ALAR.13.2 - 5Page13Chapter_1__An_Overview_of_Community_Corrections__Goals_and_Evidence_Based_Practices

67.What is the value in public opinion poll research compared to social science research?ANSWER:Public opinion research on sentencing preferences demonstrated higher validity whenthe public was given diverse sentencing options and adequate information, such asprogram descriptions and detailed information about an offense or an offender.However, readers are cautioned that exposure to information may have only short-termeffects rather than lasting effects, since many beliefs about crime and punishment arebased on emotional rather than rational arguments (Maruna and King, 2008). Thisreliance on emotional reactions may lead to temporary increases in funding forparticular programs, policies, or sanctions. However, it may also lead to thecontinuance of having punishments that do not achieve the desired outcomes. A goodexample is three-strikes legislation that has not always resulted in removing only themost serious offenders from society. Conversely, valid social science researchremoves the emotional response and measures the degree of effectiveness ofprograms based on the program’s ability to achieve desired outcomes/goals.REFERENCES:The ParadoxLEARNING OBJECTIVES:COBC.ALAR.13.5 - 468.Will evidence-based practices (EBP) be just another passing fad?ANSWER:Decreasing risk, increasing rehabilitation, and restorative justice are importantcomponents in changing offenders’ attitudes and behaviors, leading to the prevention offuture criminal behavior. Part of the challenge therein, lies in public recognition of theimportance that community corrections serves to increase public safety and in themethod of choice for those who break the law. One of the ways to accomplish such animage change is through evidence-based practices. EBP is not based on intuition,speculation, anecdotal evidence, or tradition (e.g., “that’s the way we’ve always done itaround here”).Rather, EBP is grounded in empirical data and research in studying what works. Theidea behind EBP in corrections is that agencies should use only the most successfulprograms. The programs that are the best are effective in changing offender behavior—whether that behavior is reducing rearrest, reducing technical violations, increasingthe number of drug free days, or the number of days offender is working or employedwhile on supervision. Each goal will need a way to be measure empirically—meaningaccurate data needs to be recorded electronically for later evaluation. To the extentthat EPB is successful in describing programs that work and reduce crime and fear ofcrime then it will be accepted. However, in the past the public has relied uponrecidivism as the variable that comes to their minds when discussing success. Ifrecidivism is not reduced then it is possible that EPB will not be accepted on a longterm basis.REFERENCES:Evidence-Based Practices in Community CorrectionsLEARNING OBJECTIVES:COBC.ALAR.13.5 - 4Page14Chapter_1__An_Overview_of_Community_Corrections__Goals_and_Evidence_Based_Practices
