Summary

Previous research has concluded that prison populations have particularly high rates of interpersonal trauma. There is however concern that these issues have been largely overlooked and misunderstood in the work undertaken with male offenders. The importance of addressing these concerns can be seen in the greater occurrence of mental health problems and higher reconviction rates often reported by prisoners with histories of interpersonal trauma. This study seeks to investigate complex trauma and associated symptomatology can be effectively ameliorated and whether differences in delivery intensity impact on how interventions respond most effectively to this group of survivors' needs. This is particularly relevant for forensic mental health services located in prisons, which are tasked with the care and rehabilitation of large populations of survivors.
