- Summary:
- Having worked with young people who offend for some time, Kathy Hampson questioned the effectiveness of interventions because the young people may not have had enough emotional understanding to process the sessions. For example, how can a young person who demonstrates anger management difficulties learn control without an appreciation of how their own emotions work, or even what they might be? In her PhD, she set out to discover whether young people in the criminal justice system had a level of emotional intelligence related in some way to their propensity to offend using an already existent questionnaire, validated for use with young people.
