First Name

1. Meta-analytic research on punishment and reoffending has consistently demonstrated which finding?

Longer prison sentences significantly reduce recidivism rates

Custodial sanctions have no effect on reoffending or slightly increase it compared to noncustodial sanctions

Punishment combined with treatment is more effective than treatment alone

Intensive supervision programs consistently reduce sexual reoffending

2. Edward Bordin’s conceptualization of the therapeutic alliance includes agreement on relationship, tasks, and which other component?

Assessment methods

Treatment duration

Goals

Risk level

3. The Risk-Need-Responsivity (RNR) model holds that the primary aim of correctional intervention is to:

Punish individuals who have committed offenses

Reduce harm inflicted on the community

Rehabilitate offenders to their pre-offense functioning

Maximize incarceration time for public safety

4. True or False: The Good Lives Model (GLM) is a specific treatment protocol with a fixed, time-limited implementation structure.

True

False

5. How many primary human goods does the GLM propose?

6. Within the GLM framework, dynamic risk factors are understood as:

Fixed characteristics that cannot be changed through intervention

Markers for obstacles that block achieving primary goods in prosocial ways

Unrelated to the pursuit of human goods

Secondary concerns addressed only after treatment completion

7. The primary good of “Agency” refers to the desire for:

Connection to community groups

Emotional regulation and equilibrium

Mastery through work accomplishments

Independence, autonomy, choice, and self-directedness

8. The GLM encourages practitioners to think beyond risk and protective factors because:

Such factors lack empirical support in the research literature

Thinking in terms of factors can obscure the underlying narrative of how events actually shaped the individual

Factors apply only to individuals assessed as higher risk

Factor-based approaches are incompatible with group treatment formats

9. Which of the following represents one of the four types of Good Life Plan obstacles in the GLM?

Maladaptive means used to seek primary goods

Excessive focus on community connection

Over-reliance on professional support

Rigid adherence to treatment protocols

10. When a Good Life Plan “lacks scope,” this means:

The plan focuses on too many primary goods simultaneously

The plan is insufficiently detailed in its action steps

Important primary goods are missing from the plan

The plan is too focused on risk avoidance

11. The primary good of “Peace of Mind” relates to:

Spiritual fulfillment and religious practice

Strong family relationships

Emotion regulation and freedom from emotional turmoil

Success in vocational pursuits

12. According to the GLM, “secondary goods” are best understood as:

Less important human needs that can be addressed later in treatment

Concrete ways or means to secure primary goods

Goals that emerge only after primary goods are met

External resources provided by treatment providers

13. Treatment effectiveness research indicates that specialized sex offense treatment is associated with approximately what reduction in sexual reoffending?

10-15%

30-35%

50-55%

70-75%

14. True or False: GLM-derived interventions have been shown to be equally effective as standard Relapse Prevention interventions based on changes to variables aligned with dynamic risk factors.

True

False

15. The “Agent-Action-Context Schema” in the GLM framework emphasizes that understanding behavior requires attending to:

Individual characteristics, behavioral patterns, and situational features

Risk level, treatment response, and supervision compliance

Offense history, victim characteristics, and legal consequences

Static factors, dynamic factors, and protective factors

16. Within GLM-informed practice, case formulation serves to:

Assign a risk classification for supervision purposes

Integrate assessment information to explain presenting problems and their development

Document offense details for legal proceedings

Establish treatment completion criteria

17. The SAPROF-SO is an assessment tool designed to measure:

Sexual deviance patterns

Treatment readiness

Static risk factors

Protective factors against sexual offending

18. The primary good of “Creativity” encompasses:

Work-related achievements and career advancement

The desire for novelty, innovation, and new experiences

Building relationships with like-minded individuals

Developing problem-solving capabilities

19. A relapse prevention-oriented plan that instructs a client to avoid areas where children congregate and constantly monitor environment for risk reflects what limitation compared to GLM-informed planning?

It emphasizes what the client should do rather than what they should avoid

It fails to incorporate static risk factors into planning

It uses avoidance-oriented language rather than approach-oriented goals linked to primary goods

It requires insufficient supervision from treatment providers

20. When internal capacity is lacking as an obstacle to a Good Life Plan, this may include:

Maladaptive schemas and maladaptive coping strategies

Limited financial resources

Geographic isolation from services

Lack of community support systems

21. The primary good of “Community” involves:

One-on-one intimate relationships

Family connections exclusively

Being connected to groups that share one’s values and experiencing belonging

Professional networking for career advancement

22. Which moderator has been found to be associated with greater treatment effectiveness for individuals who have sexually offended?

Use of polygraph testing

Focusing on clients assessed as lower risk

Nonspecialized treatment programs

Consistent input from psychologists

23. The GLM framework positions the relationship between GLM and RNR as:

Competing and incompatible approaches

GLM as a rehabilitation model that accommodates RNR principles

RNR as a subset of the broader GLM framework

Approaches used sequentially in different treatment phases

24. When engaging clients in case formulation, the recommended approach is to:

Present the formulation as final and not open to revision

Wait until treatment completion to share hypotheses

Ask permission to share the working formulation and check for accuracy

Develop the formulation independently without client input

25. Judith Herman’s principle regarding trauma recovery emphasizes that:

Treatment must follow a standardized protocol regardless of client preferences

Interventions that take power away from survivors cannot foster recovery

Survivors should rely primarily on professional guidance

Recovery requires confronting traumatic memories directly
