The essence of the proposed changes from the first edition involve expanding the scope of the standards to include juvenile facilities and implications for mental health services for offenders on community supervision; increased emphasis on legal, American Psychological Association (APA), and licensing standards (especially as applied to informed consent, confidentiality, and "duty to warn"); and broader roles for correctional psychologists (e.g., policymaking, psychological screening of security staff, advocacy work, and consultation). In proposing these changes, however, the standards take into account the differences between the practice of a correctional psychologist and the needs of the employing agency. The guiding purpose of the revised standards is to augment the APA ethical and practice standards and apply these concepts in the corrections arena. The intent of the standards continues to be the improvement of advocacy, accessibility, integrity, quality, and measured effectiveness of mental health care for all offenders who require or may benefit from it. There are now 66 standards in contrast to the original 57. Each section of standards is followed by a brief discussion to clarify the standard's intent. 13 references
