The Essen Climate Evaluation Schema – EssenCES
Kitap hakkında
The social atmosphere in forensic hospitals and prisons is crucial
to their success – this «manual and more» shows how to assess the
climate and identify ways of improving it.
The social climate in settings such as forensic psychiatric hospitals
and prisons is crucial to their success. The Essen Climate Evaluation
Schema (EssenCES) described here is a short, well-validated questionnaire
that measures three essential facets of an institution's social
atmosphere. An overview of the EssenCES is followed by detailed
advice on how to administer and score it and how to interpret findings,
as well as reference norms from various countries and types of institutions.
The EssenCES «manual and more» is thus a highly useful tool
for researchers, clinicians, and service managers working in forensic
settings.
