“…The results are encouraging, because these constitute initial empirical evidence that supports the effectiveness of CBI for Chinese delinquent youth in a community setting. These positive changes echo previous studies found overseas (e.g., Lipsey & Landenberger, 2006;Pearson et al, 2002) and may be ascribed to the fact that our CBI program was able to modify participants' impulsivities (i.e., cognitive and overall impulsivities), which in turn led to a reduction in their frequencies of delinquent behavior. However, due to a small sample size, our study could not perform correlational or regression analyses to ascertain such relationships.…”

“…Non-Chinese subjects. Several meta-analyses have identified cognitive-behavior intervention as an effective intervention for reducing recidivism in juvenile offenders (Lipsey & Landenberger, 2006;Pearson, Lipton, Cleland, &Yee, 2002). Generally speaking, many of these studies showed that CBI had positive effects in reducing recidivism by 20-30%, compared to untreated control groups (Lipsey & Landenberger, 2006).…”

“…Generally speaking, many of these studies showed that CBI had positive effects in reducing recidivism by 20-30%, compared to untreated control groups (Lipsey & Landenberger, 2006). However, variations in the rate of recidivism were found among different studies and might be related to factors such as the formats of the service (i.e., case or group), contents of the service (i.e., different programs with different emphases), types of clients served (e.g., sex offenders, drug offenders, or batterers), and treatment settings (e.g., prison or community; Lipsey & Landenberger, 2006). In addition, a recent study conducted by Pardini (2016) affirmed that cognitive-behavior treatment strategies produced larger effects for youth with more severe delinquency behaviors than those with less severe delinquency behaviors (Pardini, 2016).…”

This study evaluated a culturally attuned cognitive-behavior intervention for reducing impulsivity and delinquencyrelated attitudes and behaviors among Chinese delinquent youth in Hong Kong. Methods: A quasi-experimental design was adopted. Twenty participants received CBI, and 20 received routine counseling for a period of 12 months. All participants filled out a standardized questionnaire before the intervention and at 6 and 12 months of intervention. Results: A series of 2 Â 3 analyses of variance were used to examine the Time Â Group Effects of the two groups of participants. Results suggested, when compared to the control group, the participants in the experimental group showed greater and continuous positive changes in overall impulsivity, nonplanning impulsivity, cognitive impulsivity, and overall delinquency, with effect sizes showing moderate to large magnitude of change. Conclusion: This culturally attuned CBI program may be a useful inclusion in the outreaching social services for Chinese delinquent youth in Hong Kong.

Missing a critical piece of the pie: simple document search strategies inadequate for systematic reviews

A review based on a biased collection of studies is likely to produce biased conclusions. As such, a central component of a quality systematic review is a comprehensive document search. Three issues are explored in this paper that underpin the importance of such a search. First, the evidence of publication selection bias clearly establishes that peer-reviewed journal articles are more likely to show statistically significant results than less formally published studies. Second, the presence of grey literature studies that cannot be discovered through a search of bibliographic databases is demonstrated using Campbell Collaboration systematic reviews, and third, the logical and empirical problems with using publication status as a proxy for methodological quality are examined. More robust methods of identifying research conducted in the social sciences are needed if we are to take seriously the accumulation of knowledge, such as the development of a priori registries of research studies.A social scientist reviewing the research literature on a topic often obsesses over potential biases in the individual studies being examined. For example, she may concern herself with the internal validity of experimental or quasi-experimental designs, looking for evidence of selection bias or other threats to validity. Bias, however, is not only the province of primary studies-it may also exist at the level of a review. Systematic reviews and meta-analyses strive to minimize bias in the

“…Cognitive‐behavioural interventions are designed to address these cognitive deficits and learning patterns in order to reduce maladaptive or dysfunctional behaviour (Connor 2002; DOH 2001; Farrington 2002; Lipsey 2006; Turner 2007). They are skill‐based, combining cognitive and behavioural therapy approaches from cognitive and learning theories of delinquency and behaviour change (DOH 2001).…”

Cognitive‐Behavioural Interventions for Preventing Youth Gang Involvement for Children and Young People (7‐16)

Research indicates that youth who join gangs are more likely to be involved in delinquency and crime, particularly serious and violent offences, compared to non‐gang youth and non‐gang delinquent youth. Research also has found that both delinquent youth and youth who join gangs often show a range of negative thoughts, feelings and beliefs compared to non‐delinquent peers. Cognitive‐behavioural interventions, designed to address these deficits, have had a positive impact on a variety of behavioural and psychological disorders among children and youth. This systematic review was designed to assess the effectiveness of such cognitive behavioural interventions for preventing youth gang involvement. A three‐part search strategy found no randomised controlled trials or quasi‐randomised controlled trials of the effectiveness of cognitive‐behavioural interventions for gang prevention; four excluded studies examining the impact of Gang Resistance Education and Training (GREAT) were of too poor a quality to be included in analysis. The only possible conclusions from this review, therefore, are the urgent need for additional primary evaluations of cognitive‐behavioural interventions for gang prevention and the importance of high standards required of the research conducted to provide meaningful findings that can guide future programmes and policies. Abstract BackgroundMany studies document a robust and consistent relationship between gang membership and elevated delinquency, with gang members disproportionately involved in crime compared to non‐gang peers. Research also indicates that both delinquent youth and youth who join gangs often show a wide range of deficient or distorted social‐cognitive processes compared to non‐delinquent peers. Cognitive‐behavioural interventions are designed to address cognitive deficits in order to reduce maladaptive or dysfunctional behaviour, and studies have documented their positive impact on a number of behavioural and psychological disorders among children and youth. ObjectivesTo determine the effectiveness of cognitive‐behavioural interventions for preventing youth gang involvement for children and young people (ages 7‐16). Search strategyElectronic searches of ASSIA, CINAHL, CJA, Cochrane Library, Dissertations Abstracts A, EMBASE, ERIC, IBSS, LILACs, LexisNexis Butterworths, MEDLINE, NCJR Service Abstracts Database, PsycINFO, and Sociological Abstracts, to April 2007. Reviewers contacted relevant organisations, individuals, and list‐servs and searched pertinent websites and reference lists. Selection criteriaAll randomised controlled trials or quasi‐randomised controlled trials of interventions with a cognitive‐behavioural intervention as the majority component, delivered to youth and children aged 7‐16 not involved in a gang. Data collection & analysisSearching yielded 2,284 unduplicated citations, 2,271 of which were excluded as irrelevant based on title and abstract. One was excluded following personal communication with investigators. One citation, of a large randomised prevention...
