“…Heseltine, Day and Sarre, 2011). These CBT programmes have generally been shown to be effective in decreasing inappropriate expression of anger (Howells et al, 2005; Schamborg, Tully and Browne, 2015), even when taking account of demographic variables such as age, gender, type of offence and ethnicity (Buttell and Carney, 2005; Cameron and Telfer, 2004; Goldstein et al, 2013; Ireland, 2004; Sorensen and Cunningham, 2010) or when categorized by setting, comorbidities and methods of delivery (Davey, Day and Howells, 2005; Day, Kozar and Davey, 2013; Hornsveld, 2005; Wilson et al, 2013; Wydo, DiGiuseppe and Unger, 2013).

Intervention and control groups were not directly comparable so outcome was analysed using t-tests. Reductions were noted for state and trait anger and anger expression, with an increase in coping skills for the intervention group. No changes were noted in the control group. The improvements seen on intervention were maintained at 4 month follow-up for a sub-group of participants for whom data were available. Several predictors of outcomes were identified.

“…The importance of developing supportive therapeutic alliances with staff and residents was highlighted, which is supported by treatment efficacy literature.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore the treatment experiences of adult male perpetrators of filicide within prison therapeutic communities (TCs). Design/methodology/approach Participants took part in semi-structured interviews in order to capture their treatment experiences. The data were analysed using interpretative phenomenological analysis. Findings Five superordinate themes (therapeutic process; acceptance; insight; relationships; and barriers) and ten subordinate themes were identified. All themes were pertinent to understanding the participants’ experiences of TC treatment. The discussion provides reflections about the findings, contrasts them to psychological literature, along with suggestions for clinical practice and future research. Originality/value This research addressed a dearth of published literature within the area of male filicide and available treatment interventions.

“…There is an emerging interest in the role that therapist qualities, communication styles, and behaviours play in working therapeutically with violent offenders (e.g., Day, Kozar, & Davey, 2013;Daffern, Duggan, Huband, & Thomas, 2010;Ross et al, 2008). These include the interviewer's level of skill, interpersonal style, ability to work with minority groups, and his or her expectations for change -particularly when faced with the challenging interpersonal styles (described above) of some forensic patients.…”

This paper discusses issues arising when interviewing men and women in forensic mental health services, noting that many patients in these settings have significant histories of aggression or violence. The differences between interviews conducted for assessment purposes and those that are conducted as part of treatment are noted. We identify some important considerations for interviewers. These relate to characteristics of the client, characteristics of the interviewer, and features of the mental health setting that might impact on the interview. Some practical recommendations are offered to assist forensic mental health practitioners who conduct both types of interview.
