Alastair W. MacLeod writes from a spirit of confidence shared by many psychiatrists that the complex causes of criminality can be better understood than they are now, and that this understanding can be used both to lessen the incidence of crime and to increase the effectiveness of rehabilitation practices.

Recidivism refers to the repetition of offending behaviour. Official statistics may provide an inexact picture of recidivism, because a significant proportion of crime is under-reported

The purpose of this book is to present a thorough analysis of the concept of\nrecidivism. The first half of the book describes the role that different definitions\nof recidivism have played in evaluating correctional goals and programs and\nshows how improper policy conclusions have been based on studies that used\ninappropriate definitions of recidivism. It describes the many goals that the\ncorrectional system is called upon to achieve and specifies how recidivism is\nused in measuring their achievement. A taxonomy of recidivism definitions is\nproposed to make possible the comparison of recidivism statistics of two different\nstudies.\nThe second half of the book addresses the problem of analyzing data on\nrecidivism. Deficiencies in the standard method of analysis are noted, and\ndifferent methods and models that overcome these deficiencies are described.\nSelection of the “best” method and model is addressed by noting the inappropriateness\nof the standard selection criterion, the chi-square goodness-of-fit\ntest. New selection criteria are developed, including a graphical test based on\nthe model’s predictive ability. In addition, characteristics of the recidivism\nprocess are invoked to aid in the selection of an appropriate model. This model,\nbased on the incomplete exponential distribution, is described and a number of\nexamples of its use are presented. Appendixes containing tables, graphs, and\ncomputer programs (useful in estimating confidence regions) are provided, with\nexamples of their use in analyzing correctional data.

Sequential surgery is an effective and successful strategy in cholesteatoma eradication, providing a similar recidivism rate compared to following cholesteatoma retrograde and resection of the posterior canal wall. Lower recidivism after ETC was observed as a consequence of limited disease and the postoperative middle ear status determined the higher rate of recurrence after TCM. Therefore, the restricted visualization of the middle ear during ICW surgery does not increase the rate of recidivism, compared with CWD, as described in other studies. Cholesteatoma recidivism is mainly attributed to the surgeon's experience that outweighs the chosen strategy.
