A classic quasi-experimental design was used to evaluate the effects of community-based intensive supervision and monitoring (ISM) and cognitive-behavioral (CB) intervention techniques on justice system expenditures for court referrals and court-ordered detention for a sample of youth offenders on probation or parole in Mississippi. The outcomes for participants in the two experimetal groups (ISM and CB) were analyzed in comparison to the outcomes for a control group consisting of participants experiencing standard probation or parole oversight by their local court authorities. Data was collected for each participant from a variety of primary and secondary sources over the course of an 18-month period. Each participant completed an assessment packet consisting of the Million Adolescent Personality Inventory (MAPI), the Personal Experience Screening Questionnaire (PESQ), questionnaires concerning personal behavior and substance use and the urin drug screening.
