Summary: The aim of this study is to analyse the possible effectiveness of a basic program in psychosocial competence that was the most widely applied in a detention centre in Catalonia. The study compared recidivism rates among people who followed and not followed the program while being in detention. The rate of serious recidivism of 60 people who had been inmates in the centre was analysed, 26 had participated in the program and 34 did not. The results showed a lower rate of recidivism for those inmates who had been on treatment (19%) than those who had not followed the treatment (35%)
