Abstract：
Psychopathy is associated with higher levels of violence as well as general and violent recidivism after release from prison. A disorder with a long and rich clinical and research history, psychopathy has gained an undeserved reputation as a syndrome that is unresponsive to treatment. This article presents information that undermines long-standing problematic assumptions regarding the treatability of individuals with psychopathic traits and posits that implementing treatment programs in correctional settings is critical to decrease recidivism and violence. We discuss several treatment programs that have evidenced some success in the treatment of individuals with psychopathy and have the potential to be widely implemented in correctional settings, as well as general tenets of successful treatment programs and specific targets.
摘要：
精神病与更高水平的暴力以及从监狱释放后的一般和暴力累犯有关。一种具有悠久而丰富的临床和研究历史的疾病，精神病作为一种对治疗无反应的综合症而获得了不当的声誉。本文提供的信息破坏了有关具有精神病特征的个人的可治疗性的长期有问题的假设，并认为在矫正环境中实施治疗计划对于减少累犯和暴力至关重要。我们讨论了几种治疗计划，这些计划在治疗精神病患者方面取得了一些成功，并且有可能在矫正环境中广泛实施，以及成功治疗方案和具体目标的一般原则。
