In the 1970s, rejection of offender treatment as misguided and ineffective was common among criminologists. Recently, however, there are reasons to believe that faith in correctional intervention may have returned as a core feature of criminologists’ professional ideology. To date, no one has undertaken a systematic investigation of criminologists’ opinions on rehabilitation. Drawing on a random sample of criminologists, the current study examines the extent to which the discipline stands ready to support a central role for offender treatment. Finding broad-based support for rehabilitation, we discuss the implications of these results for correctional policy.
