Abstract

This study examines the effect of Psychoanalysis and Positive PsychologyIntervention (PPPI) in reducing the level of aggression and depression on prison inmates in Malaysia. A second purpose of the study was to examine the effect of PPP Intervention increasing the level of ability to change among young inmates. The study was a quasi-experimental pre-posttest involving two groups of 144 young inmates (18-21 years) in one prison in North Malaysia. The treatment group (72) was exposed to 15sessions of PPP intervention over sixteen days, while the control group was only given the pre-post test questionnaire. ANCOVA analysis results among the group showed that the Intervention was effective in significantly reducing the level of aggression and depression among the study sample. Furthermore, the results show that the intervention was effective in increasing the level of ability to change. It is recommended that PPP Intervention be used as a tool to help inmates to reduce the negative feelings among young inmates. This is the first study of this nature.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
