Abstract
The objective of the present study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the Reasoning and Rehabilitation Program (RRP) in a Mexican population. The sample consisted on 159 young offenders institutionalized in treatment centers for adolescents in the state of sonora; 156 men and three women, from 14 to 22 years old (M = 16.7, SD = 1.3). The following subscales of the test of Conners were used (Conners, 2000): inattention, impulsiveness-hiperactivity, learning problems, aggression, family problems, inattention disorder, impulsiveness and hyperactivity disorder, dissocial disorder and oppositional defiant disorder. It was explained the objectives of the evaluation and it was requested their consent to participate and it was assured total confidentiality of the information. The data was rising for psychologists trained especially in the observation procedure and application of the instruments; the time of application was between 35 minutes. The instruments were applied in the classrooms of the treatment centers. We used a t test to observe the difference between the pre-test and the post-test. Results showed significant differences between the pre-test and the post-test, in all the subscales, which demonstrated that the RRP is an effective program in the treatment of the participants in conflict with the law.
