“…There is a long history of research on public attitudes towards the handling of offenders (e.g., perceptions of the most effective ways of reducing crime; see Roberts & Hasting, 2012 ), and there are also studies on the attitudes of professionals in the criminal justice system (Chen & Einat, 2014 ;Ortet-Fabregat & Pérez, 1992 ). But there is little research on the attitudes of professionals in the criminal justice system and the treatment sector towards QCT and punishment of drugaddicted offenders (e.g., De Wree, De Ruyver, Verpoest, & Colman, 2008 ).…”

From a moral standpoint, we would expect the practice of punishment to reflect a solid and commonly shared legitimizing framework. Several moral legal theories explicitly aim to provide such frameworks. Based on the theories of Retributivism, Utilitarianism, and Restorative Justice, this article first sets out to develop a theoretically integrated model of penal attitudes and then explores the extent to which Dutch judges' attitudes to punishment fit the model. Results indicate that penal attitudes can be measured in a meaningful way that is consistent with an integrated approach to moral theory. The general structure of penal attitudes among Dutch judges suggests a streamlined and pragmatic approach to legal punishment that is identifiably founded on the separate concepts central to moral theories of punishment. While Restorative Justice is frequently presented as an alternative paradigm, results show it to be smoothly incorporated within the streamlined approach.

“…For this purpose, the "Escala de Actitudes hacia la Delincuencia" (EAD; Attitudes towards Delinquents Scale) was created, by which a clear relation between attitudes and the professional role (rehabilitation, defense, arrest, vigilance) was found (Ortet Fabregat & Pérez, 1992;Ortet Fabregat, Pérez, & Lewis, 1993).…”

The aim of this study is to analyze Spanish research published between 1989 and 1998 in clinical psychology and its most directly related psychological disciplines: personality psychology, psychopathology, differential psychology, health psychology, and psychological assessment. A search was performed in the various databases of the works published in that decade by Spanish university professors who investigate in these areas. Their localization was verified by direct correspondence with the professors, to whom was also sent a questionnaire to evaluate their research field and preferred theoretical approach. The 2,079 works located allowed me to identify 85 different research trends. These research trends are characterized by the predominance of applied studies over basic studies, of empirical research over theoretical research, and of the cognitive-behavioral approach over the rest of the theoretical orientations. In addition, various bibliometrical indicators of production, dissemination, and impact were calculated. They revealed that productivity and dissemination of Spanish research in these areas grew considerably during this 1989-98 period.El objetivo de este estudio es analizar la investigación española publicada durante 1989-1998 en psicología clínica y en las disciplinas psicológicas más directamente relacionadas: psicología de la personalidad, psicopatología, psicología diferencial, psicología de la salud y evaluación psicológica. Se buscó en distintas bases de datos los trabajos realizados en esa década por los profesores universitarios españoles que investigan en esas áreas, y su localización fue contrastada mediante correspondencia directa con los propios profesores a quienes, además, se envió un cuestionario para evaluar su campo de investigación y enfoque teórico preferentes. Los 2.079 trabajos localizados permitieron identificar 85 líneas de investigación diferentes. Estas líneas se caracterizan por el predominio de los estudios aplicados sobre los básicos, de la investigación empírica sobre la teórica, y del enfoque cognitivo-conductual sobre el resto de orientaciones teóricas. Se calcularon además diversos indicadores bibliométricos de producción, difusión y repercusión. Éstos revelaron que la productividad y difusión de la investigación española en esas áreas experimentó un importante crecimiento durante el período 1989-1998.
