The widespread emphasis upon early release of convicted felons and misdemeanants led to investigation of the effects of variation in level of supervision of offenders subsequent to release. The authors describe a project in the State of Florida which included varying intensity of supervision for selected groups of probationers and parolees. The results indicated success in implementing the variations in supervision intensity; that is, the process measures were favorable. However, the product measures involving offender behavioral adjustment did not show clear advantages for either level of supervision intensity. Interpretations of the results depend heavily upon an understanding of the complexity of the justice system as well as the complex interaction of the behavioral causes.
