title: [Criteria for the evaluation of programs for rehabilitation of apprehended drivers].
abstract: The preparation of criteria for the judgment of programs provided for rehabilitation (re-education) of delinquent drivers is in regard of the development of these measures--likewise in European foreign countries--necessary to secure their suitableness, their effectiveness, their controlled optimization, their credibility and their quality. Only programs (courses) can be suitable, which apply for the psychological knowledge about measures for behavior modification so that it relates perfectly to the target group. These measures have to be investigated for their effectiveness--especially if they result in legal consequences. Therefore the fundamental demand of Wittmann (1985) has to be repeated: Evaluation is a necessary, unquestioned task of all social institutions, which long for a rational manifestation and justification of their activity. Finally, behavior modification of delinquent drivers require a continuous safe-guarding of their quality within the scope of the acknowledged norms in Europe.
