These programs include MonDay Community Correctional Institution\r\n(MonDay), Mohican Youth Center, and Noble Choices. MonDay is a locally\r\noperated, community-based correctional facility for felony offenders\r\nto which male and female offenders are sentenced in lieu of prison for\r\na period not to exceed six months. MonDay's RSAT program began in\r\nOctober 1997, and a Therapeutic Community (TC) was fully implemented\r\nby January 1, 1998. Offenders identified as needing long-term\r\nresidential treatment were assigned to MonDay's RSAT for six\r\nmonths. Mohican Youth Center (MYC) is an institutional-based TC and is\r\noperated by the Ohio Department of Youth Services. Youth convicted of\r\nfelonies and assessed as needing long-term residential substance abuse\r\ntreatment are sent to MYC for the last six months of their\r\nsentence. Noble Choices is a TC for adult males within the Noble\r\nCorrectional Institution, a medium security prison operated by the\r\nOhio Department of Rehabilitation and Corrections. The specific\r\nresearch questions addressed in this study were: (1) What is the\r\nprofile of offenders being served by the Ohio RSAT programs? (2) What\r\nis the nature of the services being delivered by the Ohio RSAT\r\nprograms? (3) What are the intermediate outcomes of Ohio RSAT\r\nprograms? (4) How are offenders performing under post-release\r\nsupervision in terms of relapse and recidivism? and (5) What factors\r\nare associated with successful program completion and post-release\r\nrecidivism and relapse? A one-group post-test design was used to\r\nconduct this process evaluation. Each program was studied as a\r\nseparate entity. The study period for each program began at the date\r\nof first admission, which was January 1, 1998, for MonDay, March 3,\r\n1998, for MYC, and October 18, 1998, for Noble Choices. The study\r\nperiod ended on March 31, 1999, for MYC and Noble Choices and on April\r\n30, 1999, for MonDay. The sample consists of 466 individuals,\r\nincluding 90 from MonDay, 343 from MYC, and 33 from Noble\r\nChoices. Staff at each of the three sites collected intake, treatment,\r\nand termination data on their respective program clients using\r\nstandardized forms developed by the University of Cincinnati. The\r\nintake form was used to collect basic demographic information on each\r\noffender along with information on past substance abuse, prior\r\ntreatment experiences, and criminal history. The termination form\r\ncollected data on type of termination (successful or unsuccessful) and\r\ncriminal justice placement and residency upon termination. Each site\r\nalso provided agency-specific assessment information on each\r\noffender. Offenders at MonDay were given the Level of Services\r\nInventory (LSI), which measures the risk of recidivism, and the Adult\r\nSubstance Use Survey (ASUS), which measures the severity of substance\r\nabuse problems. Offenders at MYC were administered the Juvenile\r\nAutomated Substance Abuse Evaluation (JASAE), which measures the\r\nseverity of substance abuse problems, and the Youthful Offender Level\r\nof Services Inventory (YO-LSI). Offenders at Noble Choices were given\r\nthe Prison Inmate Inventory (PII), which measures several risk\r\nfactors. In addition, offenders at MonDay and MYC were given the\r\nPersonal Drug Use Questionnaire (PDUQ), which measures motivation for\r\ntreatment at intake and 90 days after intake, and offenders at MonDay\r\nalso completed the PDUQ upon termination. Offenders at MonDay were\r\nalso administered a Client Self-Rating Form, which measures levels of\r\nsocial and psychological functioning, at intake, 90 days after intake,\r\nand termination. Follow-up forms were sent to probation and parole\r\nofficers to collect information on MYC and MonDay offenders' treatment\r\nand supervision activities during the period of supervision after\r\nrelease from the program. Follow-up data were collected on terminated\r\ncases from the date of release until August 30, 1999. Part 1, MonDay\r\nData, consists of data from the LSI, ASUS, and intake, termination,\r\nand follow-up forms for offenders at MonDay. The LSI scores provided\r\nare: criminal history, employment, financial, family, accommodation,\r\nleisure and recreation, companion, alcohol and drug, emotions,\r\nattitude/orientation, and total. The ASUS variable measures severity\r\nof substance abuse problems and distinguishes between scores of 74 or\r\nless and 75 or higher. The intake form provides demographic variables,\r\nemployment status prior to arrest, variables related to the current\r\noffense, date screened for RSAT, date placed in RSAT, criminal\r\nhistory, and substance use history. The discharge form provides\r\nvariables on date of discharge, type of discharge, living arrangements\r\nupon discharge, whether continued drug/alcohol treatment was arranged\r\nfor client, and criminal justice placement. The follow-up form\r\nprovides variables on substance abuse treatment after release, other\r\nservices received after release, employment status, reporting status,\r\ndrug and alcohol tests after release, whether the offender was\r\narrested after release and for what offense, whether a conviction\r\nresulted, and the offender's probation status. Several derived\r\nvariables are also supplied in Part 1. Part 2, MonDay Client Self\r\nRating Scales Data, includes the offender's date of placement, date of\r\nbirth, the three dates on which the questionnaire was administered,\r\nwhether inconsistencies appeared in answers to the questionnaires, and\r\nseveral scales derived from offenders' answers. These scales, which\r\nare provided for each of the three occasions the questionnaire was\r\nadministered, include measures of anxiety, depression, self-esteem,\r\ndecision-making, risk-taking, hostility, self-efficacy, and antisocial\r\nattitudes. Several derived variables are also included. Part 3, MonDay\r\nPersonal Drug Use Data, consists of variables from MonDay's\r\nPDUQ. Scales and answers to the 20 items on the PDUQ questionnaire are\r\nprovided for all three administrations of the questionnaire. In Part\r\n4, Mohican Data, variables from the MYC intake, termination, and\r\nfollow-up forms are identical to those from the MonDay forms except\r\nfor additional intake variables on whether the youth was in school\r\nprior to arrest, whether the youth experienced certain school\r\nproblems, where the youth was living prior to arrest, and whether the\r\nyouth had a record of running away from home. Variables provide the\r\nJASAE summary score, date of YO-LSI administration, and YO-LSI scores\r\nin the categories of criminal history, family, education, peer,\r\nsubstance abuse, leisure and recreation, personality and behavior,\r\nattitudes/orientation, and total. For each YO-LSI score category an\r\nadditional variable is provided that indicates whether the score was\r\nlow, moderate, or high. Several derived variables are also\r\nprovided. Part 5, Mohican Personal Drug Use Data, consists of scale\r\nvariables calculated from responses to the MYC PDUQ for both\r\nadministrations of the questionnaire. These scales are\r\nprecontemplation, contemplation, determination, action, and\r\nmaintenance. Part 6, Noble Data, consists of variables from Noble\r\nChoices intake, termination, and PII questionnaires. Variables from\r\nthe intake and termination forms are identical to those taken from the\r\nMonDay intake and termination forms. Variables from the PII include\r\nscale variables that measure truthfulness, adjustment, judgment,\r\nalcohol, drug, antisocial attitudes, violence, distress, self-esteem,\r\nand stress. For each of these scales an additional variable is\r\nprovided that indicates whether scores were low, medium, high, or\r\nmaximum. Several derived variables are also provided.", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "accessURL": "https://doi.org/10.3886/ICPSR03206.v1", "title": "Process Evaluation of Three Residential Substance Abuse Treatment (RSAT) Programs in Ohio, 1998-1999"}], "identifier": "3351", "issued": "2003-03-21T00:00:00", "keyword": ["correctional facilities", "counseling", "felons", "inmate programs", "juvenile offenders", "offender profiles", "process evaluation", "recidivism", "residential programs", "substance abuse treatment", "treatment outcome", "treatment programs"], "language": ["eng"], "license": "http://www.usa.gov/publicdomain/label/1.0/", "modified": "2006-03-30T00:00:00", "programCode": ["011:060"], "publisher": {"@type": "org:Organization", "name": "National Institute of Justice", "subOrganizationOf": {"acronym": "OJP", "id": 22, "name": "Office of Justice Programs", "parentOrganization": {"acronym": "DOJ", "id": 10, "name": "Department of Justice"}, "parentOrganizationID": 10}}, "rights": "These data are restricted due to the increased risk of violation of confidentiality of respondent and subject data.", "title": "Process Evaluation of Three Residential Substance Abuse Treatment (RSAT) Programs in Ohio, 1998-1999"}
