Aggression Replacement Therapy (ART) is a multimodal psycoeducational intervention designed to alter the behavior of chronically aggressive adolescents and young children. The goal of ART is to improve social skill competence, anger control, and moral reasoning. The program consists of a 10 week, 30 hour intervention administered to groups of 8-12 juvenile offenders thrice weekly. During these 10 weeks, participating youths typically attend three 1 hour sessions per week.
This program is for 12-17 year old youths who are aggressive to have outcomes of reduced impulsiveness, improved interpersonal skills and decreased recidivism.
