This paper notes the increasing involvement of applied behaviour analysis in crime prevention and crime control and observes some trends in this development. Issues raised are the type of problem behaviours targeted, the ethical implications of work in this area, and the extent to which studies accord with the strict model of applied behaviour analysis. It is argued that there has been little explicit analysis of ethical problems engendered by choosing particular goals for behaviour change and that most studies also do not adhere to the basic tenets of applied behaviour analysis. Three strategies potentially applicable to the modification of criminal behaviour are outlined and the contribution of applied behaviour analysis to each is assessed. It is argued that applied behaviour analysis has some way to go before it has a significant contribution to make to the individual modification of criminal behaviour. In addition to individual modification, it is also suggested that applied behaviour analysis has potential application to wider programs of social planning for crime prevention, but that here too application is being retarded by current conceptual limitations in applied behaviour analysis. |
