The Risk-Need-Responsivity model of correctional intervention has become the cornerstone of correctional practice in the United States. With a primary focus on building human capital through interventions aimed at developing knowledge and skills needed for prosocial behavior, the model enjoys widespread empirical support. This approach, however, has been criticized by desistance-focused scholars for its failure to recognize social capital and the importance of social networks for facilitating behavior change. The current article examines the concept of individual-level social capital and describes how its development can be integrated into the Risk-Need-Responsivity model of correctional interventions as an important responsivity factor. Recommendations include assessing for social capital and strategies for enhancing both bonding and bridging social capital.

社会资本：被遗忘的反应因素

矫正干预的风险-需要-反应模型已成为美国矫正实践的基石。该模型主要侧重于通过旨在发展亲社会行为所需的知识和技能的干预措施来建设人力资本，因此得到了广泛的实证支持。然而，这种方法因未能认识到社会资本和社交网络对促进行为改变的重要性而受到了以抵制为重点的学者的批评。本文探讨了个人层面社会资本的概念，并描述了如何将其发展作为重要的响应因素整合到矫正干预的风险-需求-响应模型中。
