本研究调查了 103 名受害者影响小组与会者和 75 名被判醉酒驾驶罪的对照组受访者。作者制定了一项测试前和测试后的措施，对两组进行测试，以确定罪犯对酒后驾驶的态度。结果表明，与对照组受试者和文献中引用的接受其他制裁的受试者相比，VIP 参与者的累犯率较低。双向方差分析和配对 T 检验分析显示，VIP 与会者对继续酒后驾驶的意图、对后果的考虑以及酒后驾车/酒后驾车是否应被视为犯罪和累犯的态度发生了显着变化。这些结果不适用于对照组。在这两个群体中，对于酒驾/酒后驾车法律的公平性、醉酒驾驶犯罪的意外性质或酒后驾车教育作为替代制裁的可取性的态度没有显着差异。
This study examines 103 Victim Impact Panel attendees and 75 comparison group respondents who had been convicted of drunk driving offenses. A pre- and post-test measure developed by the author was administered to both groups to determine offender attitudes about drinking and driving. Results indicate a lower recidivism rate in VIP participants as opposed to comparison group subjects and those receiving other sanctions as cited in the literature. 2-Way ANOVA and paired T-test analysis revealed significant changes in attitudes regarding the VIP attendees intention to continue drinking and driving, the consideration of consequences and whether or not DUI/DWI should be considered a crime and recidivism. These results did not hold true for the comparison group. There were no demonstrated significant differences in attitudes toward the fairness of DUI/DWI laws, the accidental nature of drunk driving offenses or the advisability of DWI education as an alternative sanction in either group.
