Does Pastoral Counseling Work? A Pilot Study of Delinquent Boys
Abstract
This is a study of the relationship between pastoral counseling interventions and recidivism in a small sample of 16 delinquent adolescent males in residential treatment programs where such interventions were routinely available. One or more of three pastoral counseling protocols were utilized with the youths who were assessed as demonstrating one or more of the spiritual needs addressed by the protocols and who were open to the intervention. Analysis showed a significant Spearman correlation (r = .588; p = .008) between pastoral counseling and low recidivism (measured as re-arrests since discharge at the time of the follow-up contact) suggesting that the pastoral counseling may be a contributing factor to successful treatment.

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.
