• The Good Lives Model and the Risk Need Responsivity Model (2012, background): “However, these ideas were all at the center of the original Ward and Stewart (2003) article in some form.”
• The Risk Need Responsivity Model of Offender Rehabilitation: Is There Really a Need for a Paradigm Shift?. (2013, methodology): “Although not explicitly stated, it appears that Ward and colleagues (Ward & Stewart, 2003) are advocating for a humanistic approach to treatment (e.g., Rogers, 1951).”
• Rehabilitation, etiology, and self-regulation: The comprehensive good lives model of treatment for sexual offenders (2006, methodology): “By focusing on providing offenders with the necessary conditions (e.g., skills, values, opportunities, and social supports) for meeting their human needs in more adaptive ways, the assumption is that they will be less likely to harm others or themselves (Ward & Stewart, 2003).”
• Problematic Hypersexuality: A Review of Conceptualization and Diagnosis (2008, methodology): “The Good Lives Model (GLM; Ward & Stewart, 2003), for example, is a recently developed rehabilitation model used primarily with sexual offenders, some of whom present with PH.”
• The good lives model of offender rehabilitation: Clinical implications (2007, background): “The presence of deviant sexual arousal indicates that an individual has developed deviant sexual interests in either children or coercive sex, or other abnormal sexual activities (Marshall et al., 1999; Ward & Siegert, 2002; Ward & Stewart, 2003a).”
• Advances in offender assessment and rehabilitation: Contributions of the risk–needs–responsivity approach (2004, background): “Even those who are critical of the risk /needs /responsivity model, acknowledge its significant contributions (see Birgden, 2002; Ward and Stewart, 2003a,b).”
• The Good Lives Model in Practice: Offence Pathways and Case Management (2011, background): “Ward and Stewart (2003) argue that a life that lacks coherence is likely to lead to frustration and harm to the individual concerned, and may also lead to a life lacking in overall sense of purpose and meaning.”
• The good lives model and conceptual issues in offender rehabilitation (2004, background): “The GLM of offender rehabilitation is essentially a strength-based approach and as such, seeks to give offenders the capabilities to secure primary human goods in socially acceptable and personally meaningful ways (Kekes, 1989; Rapp, 1998; Ward and Stewart, 2003c).”
• Understanding online child pornography use: Applying sexual offense theory to internet offenders (2009, background): “Zillmann and Bryant (1986) suggest that those consumers of general adult pornography drift towards viewing different and more extreme pornography, including “uncommon or unusual sexual practices” (p.”
• The Rehabilitation and Reintegration of Offenders (2007, background): “…treatment approach focusing on avoiding “bad” behaviors has not been very successful in reducing relapse among sex offenders (e.g., Reitzel, 2006; Yates, 2005), a “good lives” approach has garnered increasing theoretical interest among sex-offender treatment staff (e.g., Ward & Stewart, 2003).”
