In 1981 the Dallas Fire Department began a new program for juvenile firesetters. Based on an interview graphing technique that helps the juvenile firesetter to correlate triggering events with feelings leading to aggressive firesetting behavior, the program is staffed by fire department personnel who are trained by psychiatric faculty of the University of Texas Southwestern Medical School at Dallas. Comparisons with the city's previous program demonstrate the new program's effectiveness in preventing the recurrence of firesetting behavior as well as its cost-efficiency. Similar programs have been successfully adopted in Houston and Fort Worth.
1981年,达拉斯消防局启动了一项针对青少年纵火者的新计划。该计划基于一种访谈绘图技术,这种技术有助于青少年纵火者将引发事件与导致攻击性纵火行为的情绪联系起来,计划的工作人员由达拉斯德克萨斯大学西南医学院的精神病学教员培训过的消防部门人员组成。与该市以前的计划相比,新计划在防止纵火行为复发方面的有效性以及成本效益都得到了体现。休斯顿和沃思堡也成功采用了类似的计划。
