A. (2008) I found by researching and evaluating my four chosen documents it encouraged me to think of my own proposed research and what I had failed to find in regards to a search conducted to the benefits of physical exercise within the community to reduce reoffending. It appears through my two chosen peer-reviewed documents that deprived areas within Scotland had lacking resources for people to access although potential barriers were noted such as safety however it was clear the residents who participated in the research felt a lack of community spirit if the communities had more resources then the chance or this community spirit may increase. Within my second peer-reviewed document evidence from the research showed that physical exercise within a secure setting was very positive and had a great impact on those involved however it failed to transition during reintegration into the communities. My two chosen other sources of materials a policy document and information from a website highlighted a real holistic approach as being beneficial in reducing re/offending behavior. It appears the Scottish Government has a drive on looking at early intervention in regards to adverse childhood to prevent poor outcomes such as offending behavior however what about adults? I struggled to find any sources looking at the benefits of physical exercise and offending behavior out in prison settings so this has allowed me to refine my topic of research.
