Section A
The evaluation approach used in the program is frugal evaluation. Most people who have experienced juvenile life because of either just or unjust cases are not comfortable talking to strangers about their life experience. Since frugal evaluation is flexible it’s possible to shift the evaluation methods to fit audience requirements.
The impact evaluation assesses the changes attributed to program innovation. The collective impacts, that is the researcher’s commitment in the and dynamic research on the criminal case don’t base our evaluation to the specific group
Performance evaluation is the assessment of the achieved work target compared to the work done. Concerning the program
Effective evaluation involves the evaluation of the program it helps to answer the question of whether the program objective was achieved.
The approach will help us to collect all the information required because of its flexibility and will allow the shareholders to receive all the required information.
Section B
All the three prerequisite question for evaluation were answered. The assessment question has been answered and on the effective enforcement of law and justice programs. Additionally, through the impact evaluation, the effect of the program on the society was stated. Consequently, the performance evaluation enabled us to access whether the aim of the program was achieved and the changes impacted the society by criminal justice program (Allen, & Edwards, 2017). In the end personal evaluation was done to identify the level of growth and changes impacted by the program in my personal life, for example, my perception of the “Juvenile kids”.
Section C
Measures based on objectives
There should be special treatment of adolescents and children in offending them. In considering the minor’s social and psychological characteristics it is better to treat the minors differently from the adults. To make sure that the minors are punished according to their offenses, the reforms of criminal justice should be implemented. By separating the minors from the adults, it will prevent minors from developing negative social behaviors.
Objectives1 after the juvenile has completed their one year they will have positive impacts and strong family ties
By ensuring the objectives are enacted, it is better to harmonize the already existing procedural and substantial laws, administrative offenses, new criminal law, civil process, and criminal draft code. Also,
Objective 2; one year after the juvenile completes the program they are involved in social crimes new laws should be enacted in protecting the minors from being treated the same as adults. Besides, comprehensive legal tools should be drafted to regulate administrative and criminal Liability of minors and act and also ensure the protection of their rights.
The already made correction law should also be revised to ensure that the rights of the minors have been enacted and are not offended in the same manner as the adults.
The effectiveness of the special treatment of minors will be done through reviewing the prevention of minors from substance abuse, the protection of juveniles from illegal activities and gangs, and the Prevention of minors from serious violent crimes.
Section D and E
Potential confounding variables
Alcohol appears as a major confounder between mortality and physical assault. Information found majored on the frequency of sessions the alcohol is consumed and consumption of non-beverage alcohols said to be made using ethanol substances not good for consumption thus highly associated with mortality in the sample population. The alcohol effects included behavior such as excessive drunkenness, hangovers, falling obligations, and sleeping in heavy clothes. Smoking falls the next confounding factor with the user spending an impacting percentage of their income on smoking while the government continues to raise taxes on drug substances that are smoked to discourage smoking as it leads to mortality. Employment status also ranked in confounding factors as when people are poor and idle they think of finding ways of survivor objecting to the laws and find themselves in crimes that lead death sentence or mortality. Other factors include education level, adverse life events, and death of close people.
Techniques for minimizing confounding effects
Stratification technique is simple where data get recorded and broken into manageable subsets known as strata, the strata is a presentation of overall exposure and outcome. The stratum deviates markedly from the association as a whole. The Mantel -Haenszel method 11 applies in dealing with stratification by summarizing stratum using their weighted average. Standardization where death rates are standardized to age, sex, and race. It relies on the individual level of the information under study and population of reference.
Section F
The most appropriate research design to be used is the quantitative research method. Especially in criminal justice, the quantitative research design is appropriate especially in the study of a mandatory arrest where the suspect has to be asked questions to know whether guilty or not.
Section G
The main users of the evaluation results are the criminal justice program. The police might also use the evaluation results, especially when arresting the suspects and also the national and state government uses the results when inspecting whether the criminal cases were fairly decided or not. The legislators might also use and the consultants also might find these results useful. The uses of the results are especially by the policymakers is to update the changes they make in programs and rules they have. Those who make rules can also use the results to guide them over whether to amend, enlarge, or end the bills (Weisburd, Lum & Petrosino, 2001). In the first stage, the stakeholders that are involved in addressing problems in the society are those involved in businesses, the surrounding community, the department of criminal justice, the police officers, prison centers, and the national and state government. The legislature takes the responsibility of communicating the results of the evaluation. Enacting strict policies in the police department to minimize torture on young people is one way the results are used. The policies are formulated to reduce discrimination by the police and other lawmakers to the young people when dealing with offenses in the society.
