“…Thus the ECM suggests that for transition from both maladaptive selfnarrative types, treatment should be aimed at an emotional as well as the cognitive level. This aligns with recent research with offender populations (Gannon, 2016), which suggests that cognitive focused treatments can be overly superficial and are unlikely on their own to support fundamental changes to lifestyle. Thus working with emotions is more likely to effect fundamental, long-term change, rather than superficial, limited change which is the extent that changed thinking patterns achieves for most offenders (Gannon & Polaschek, 2006;Maruna & Copes, 2005;Stanley, 2009).…”

“…The ECM would suggest that emotional disturbances need to be addressed before cognitively focused interventions will be effective. The idea of inappropriate emotional closure may contribute to the understanding of the cognitive explanation for offending, which has been criticised as being oversimplisitic (e.g., Gannon, 2016).…”

“…Consequently, interventions that use alternative cognitions (i.e., Socratic questioning, through records) and skill-based methods to challenge offending rationales and values may be of greater benefit (Fite et al, 2010; Walters, 2006). This may include behavioral experiments that make alternative cognitions believable (Bennett-Levy, 2003; Gannon, 2016).…”
