KANSAS CITY ASAP, SECTION I. ANALYTIC STUDY 6: AN ANALYSIS OF DIAGNOSIS, REFERRAL, REHABILITATION AND PROBATION
The study deals with the effectiveness of the Kansas City ASAP in rehabilitating or causing behavior modifications in persons arrested and convicted as a result of drunk driving. It examines both the normal diagnosis and referral process developed over the 5 years of ASAP, as well as the more intensively evaluated Short Term Rehabilitation program. The most effective treatment modalities were found to be somewhat more beneficial for selected types of clients than the more traditional, punitive sanctions approach. On the other hand, these same programs could be counterproductive for other clients, indicating a strong need for a careful screening and diagnosis process before referral.
