Abstract

Recognizing that community acceptance of potential juvenile justice treatment programs often determines the success or failure of the programs, an assessment model was developed to assist in policy planning. The procedure applies the tenets and methods of subjective expected utility (expectancy-value) models. Responses were sought from 572 persons representing 10 different influence positions in the community. The programs of restitution, volunteer counseling, family counseling, victim negotiation, community arbitration, and local residential secure facilities were assessed. Attitudes and behavioral intention to support or resist these programs varied by program type and community position.
