The German national centre for crime prevention (NZK) has published a synthesis of studies on efforts to prevent violent extremism among youth. Our 2015 study on the HEROES project in Berlin (Raab & Stuppert 2015 - unfortunately Wolfgang Stuppert is misspelled in the article) has been lauded for (1) our definition of a highly relevant central evaluation question which the evaluation could actually answer with methods that we described transparently, and (2) the strengthening of the internal validity of our findings by the use of propensity score matching in quasi-experimental research.
Those who wish to read the full NZK text (in German only) can find it here. A summary of our study is available from this page of the Berlin Senate (in German, too); just download publication BFG Nr.57/2015.
