Instead they propose the following strategies: 

  • Build “developmental assets” and student strengths/skills that are incompatible...

Shock Tactics - an informed comment from EUSPR

Jeff Lee - 11 November 2019

The following text on the use of "shock tactics" as an approach to prevention was provided by EUSPR. I welcome your comments. I will add mine tomorrow!

The European Society for Prevention Research (EUSPR) is concerned about those so-called prevention strategies. It calls on decisionmakers, influencers and policymakers to use scientific proof of effectiveness as a criterion for exposing...
