Abstract: As part of a recent national study of intensive and special adult probation projects (i.e., innovative probation efforts that seek either to achieve a substantial reduction in caseload or to offer unique probation services , or both) evaluation reports from 28 such projects were obtained and analyzed. This paper describes the state of art in measurement practice found in that review. Approaches and problems are discussed for all types of measures encountered, including process measures , outcome measures , and costl benefit measures.
