Adhering to the Risk and Need Principles: Does It Matter for Supervision-Based Programs? (2006, background): “We also caution that a failure to heed evidence-based correctional practice is likely to result in re-entry programs that do not reach their full potential and, perhaps, simply do not work (MacKenzie, 2000; Latessa, Cullen, & Gendreau, 2002).”
An Experimental Evaluation of the Impact of Intensive Supervision on the Recidivism of High-Risk Probationers (2017, methodology): “Prior research, discussed in some detail above, has found that ISP has a limited impact on the offending of participating offenders (Gottfredson & Gottfredson, 1985; MacKenzie, 2000; Petersilia & Turner, 1990a, 1993).”
The Effectiveness of Counter-Terrorism Strategies (2006, background): “…which attempt to counter terrorism, are based on what we know is effective or that policies should be subjected to evaluations of effectiveness (Cullen and Gendreau, 2000; Davies et al., 2000; MacKenzie, 2000; Nutley and Davies, 1999; Sherman, 1998; Sherman et al., 2002; Weisburd et al., 2003).”

Indeterminate and Determinate Sentencing Models (2014, methodology): “With improved analytical methods (i.e., meta-analysis), post-Martinson researchers also established that the “nothing works” thesis was overblown (MacKenzie, 2001, 2006; Martinson, 1979).”
Intensive supervision programs: Does program philosophy and the principles of effective intervention matter?☆ (2010, result): “Moreover, these results are also consistent with conclusions reached in additional literature reviews of ISPs (Cullen, Wright, & Applegate, 1996; MacKenzie, 2000; Sherman et al., 1997) and with literature rebuking deterrence based correctional sanctions in general (Latessa, Cullen, & Gendreau,…”
