Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The risk principle suggests that the intensity of correctional interventions should be matched to the offender's risk of recidivism. Placing low-risk offenders in high-intensity programs can disrupt their pro-social networks and expose them to higher-risk offenders, potentially increasing their risk of recidivism.
