DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The juvenile justice system is undergoing a paradigmatic shift toward a balanced and restorative justice model. A central goal of the approach is to teach youth social skills as a means of fulfilling reparations to their victims, their community, and to themselves. In this application we propose developing four interactive multimedia intervention programs that reflect a core set of social competencies for youth: anger management, decision-making social skills, victim empathy, and self-management planning. Juvenile justice systems throughout the nation are keenly interested in providing youth with interventions in these critical areas of training that are of high quality and that are consistent with the balanced and restorative justice model. The proposed multimedia programs are specifically intended to engage this at-risk population through an approach that is highly visual, has extensive guidance, models skills, and provides realistic yet prosocial contexts. The programs will be based on current curriculums written by leading experts in this field. In Phase I we will develop the complete anger management program, and in Phase II we will develop the remaining three programs. The evaluation studies in both phases will be conducted with adjudicated youth in the state of California.

描述（由申请人提供）：青少年司法系统正在经历一个范式转变，向平衡和恢复性司法模式。该方法的一个中心目标是向青年传授社会技能，以此作为向受害者、社区和他们自己提供赔偿的一种手段。在这个应用程序中，我们建议开发四个互动的多媒体干预计划，反映了一套核心的社会能力的青年：愤怒管理，决策的社会技能，受害者同情，自我管理规划。全国各地的少年司法系统都非常关心在这些关键的培训领域为青年提供高质量的干预措施，这些干预措施符合平衡和恢复性司法模式。拟议的多媒体节目是专门为了通过一种高度可视化的方法，有广泛的指导，模型的技能，并提供现实的，但亲社会的背景下，从事这一高危人群。该计划将根据目前的论文撰写的领先专家在这一领域。在第一阶段，我们将开发完整的愤怒管理程序，在第二阶段，我们将开发其余三个程序。两个阶段的评价研究将在加州州经判定的青少年中进行。
