TY - JOUR PY - 2006// TI - Rehabilitation, etiology, and self-regulation: The comprehensive good lives model of treatment for sexual offenders JO - Aggression and violent behavior A1 - Ward, Tony A1 - Gannon, Theresa A. SP - 77 EP - 94 VL - 11 IS - 1 N2 - In this paper, we draw upon two sets of theoretical resources to develop a comprehensive theory of sexual offender rehabilitation named the Good Lives Model-Comprehensive (GLM-C). The original Good Lives Model (GLM-O) forms the overarching values and principles guiding clinical practice in the GLM-C. In addition, the latest sexual offender theory (i.e., the Integrated Theory of Sexual Offending; ITSO) provides a clear etiological grounding for these principles. The result is a more substantial and improved rehabilitation model that is able to conceptually link latest etiological theory with clinical practice. Analysis of the GLM-C reveals that it also has the theoretical resources to secure currently used self-regulatory treatment practice within a meaningful structure.
