Criminal justice systems have increasingly identified violent offenders as a key target group for rehabilitation programs. Anger management or violence programs have been widely implemented in Australia. However, recent research evaluating program outcomes suggests that the overall impact of these programs is low. The aim of the proposed project is to develop new and more effective interventions for violent offenders by examining the role of perspective taking deficits in angry and violent behaviour. The research will therefore contribute directly to the reduction of violent crime and improved community safety in Australia.

刑事司法系统越来越多地将暴力罪犯确定为改过自新计划的关键目标群体。愤怒管理或暴力项目在澳大利亚得到了广泛实施。然而，最近评估项目结果的研究表明，这些项目的总体影响很低。拟议项目的目的是通过审查观点缺陷在愤怒和暴力行为中的作用，为暴力罪犯制定新的、更有效的干预措施。因此，这项研究将直接有助于减少澳大利亚的暴力犯罪和改善社区安全。
