dc.description.abstractA questionnaire on eight revocation cases selected from state files revealed some discernible differences in decisions and ra tionalizations among 108 field officers of the North Carolina Probation Department. Lambda and Q measures of cross-tabu lated characteristics of the officers, decisions, and rationalizations showed that values tended to concentrate in cases characterized by a revoking pattern or extenuating circumstances and in case situations where the police or courts were holding the proba tioner or acting upon his violation. Most officers gave officer- oriented or social order reasons for their decisions rather than reasons that were probationer-oriented.en_US
