| Abstract | Parole officer attitudes and orientation can impact offender outcome (Fulton, Stichman, Travis & Latessa, 1997) and jurisdictions that employ a balanced approach to supervision including graduated responses and treatment and services result in more favorable offender outcomes compared with jurisdictions that endorse surveillance-only policies (Sherman, Gottfredson, Eck, Reuter, & Bushway, 1997). A survey of parole officers and supervisors from 20 parole offices was conducted to determine whether agencies that employ officers with distinctly enforcement-oriented attitudes are more likely to be resistant to engage in organizational change and whether a lack of consistency among supervisor and line officer attitudes toward change and organizational culture impacts the ability of the agency to affect change. Results indicate no significant changes in attitude on the majority of scales that assessed change in the six months since EBP was initiated in this paroling agency and a lack of continuity between staff and supervisors with respect to attitudes about crime, job orientation. Implications for advancing parole practice including the difficulties associated with implementing organizational change are discussed. (Contains 4 tables.) (As Provided). |
