A description of the kinds of programs that have been chosen as exemplary and the assessment of information in the documents revealed several gaps that could limit the documents' usefulness.

Furthermore, the documents neither draw on nor contribute to the growing body of theory and empirical research relevant to implementation in the criminal justice system. (Author abstract)
