US: On the Knife’s Edge: Using Therapy To Address Violence Among Teens (Includes audio)

National Public Radio – February 21, 2017
In moments of anger, it can be hard to heed the advice to take a deep breath or count to ten. But public health researcher Harold Pollack says that “regret comes almost as fast as anger,” and that five minutes of reflection can make all the difference between a regular life and one behind bars. This week, Harold Pollack and Jens Ludwig tell us about the research they do at the University of Chicago’s Crime Lab. They worked with a program called BAM (Becoming a Man) to look at what happens when teenagers participate in cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT.
