Answer to Question 1

The jury is still out on whether or not specialized courts are effective in preventing recidivism. More research is needed for the most part. Since drug courts were the first specialized court, they have had the most research. A 2011 study did find that drug court participants were 1/3 less likely than controls to report drug use in an 18-month follow-up period. This study also found that drug courts were more successful if the judge regarded drug courts favorably.
