A new prisoner reentry program is being evaluated. A sample of paroled inmates who participated in the program is compared to a sample of parolees who did not participate in the program. The results indicate that 32% of the reentry program group was rearrested within one year of release, compared to 38% of the non-program group. The researcher asserts that this is clear evidence that the program works. Do you agree with this conclusion, and why or why not?
