1. Words into action: Bridging the gap between theory and practice when supporting young people in secure care.

Author

Roles, Olivia and Johnstone, Lorraine

Subjects
YOUTH, INSTITUTIONAL care, EMOTIONAL trauma, HUMAN behavior
Abstract

The authors elucidate Johnstone's ABC Formulation Framework and 6D model for understanding and intervening with young people who display distressed behaviour. This approach equips care professionals with a theoretically informed method of identifying unmet needs that drive harmful behaviours. By simplifying complex psychological theories, the approach empowers practitioners to apply best practices effectively. The authors describe the implementation of this framework in the secure care context at Rossie Young People's Trust, providing a clear account of its transformative impact on both staff and young people.

2. Casting light on prison violence in Scotland: evaluating the impact of situational risk factors

Abstract

Violence among prisoners and that between prisoners and staff is a perennial concern for all prison systems. That violent prisoners are only violent in certain circumstances suggests a need to develop ways to understand not only the origins of violence in prison but also the situational contexts in which violence occurs. The technology of risk assessment has evolved dramatically in the last decade; however, the focus on individual risk factors has been at the expense of a de-emphasizing of the role of situational factors. In this article, evidence for the importance of situational factors in relation to prison violence is considered. The authors describe the development of a new risk assessment procedure--promoting risk intervention by situational management (PRISM). Within the context of the Scottish Prison Service, they conclude that systematic attention to situational risk factors can help reduce prison violence. Keywords: prison violence; risk assessment; structured professional judgment; situation risk factors; institutional risk factors; violence
