| dp10a036 | dp10a | A suspended sentence is a punishment that will only be implemented if a perpetrator does not follow certain conditions. | |
| dp10a037 | dp10a | A suspended sentence can only be given to persons who have not been convicted for a crime at an earlier time. | |
| dp10a038 | dp10a | A suspended sentence can only be used for relatively mild offences like public intoxication or vandalism, but not for serious offences like abuse or violent theft. | |
| dp10a039 | dp10a | When a person with a suspended sentence commits another offence during their probation they will still have to serve the punishment associated with their sentence. | |
| dp10a040 | dp10a | One of the possible conditions in order to qualify for a suspended sentence would be to place the perpetrator under the supervision of the probation agency. | |
| dp10a041 | dp10a | A suspended sentence always involves imprisonment and not community service of a fine. | |
| dp10a042 | dp10a | To make society safer, offenders should be incarcerated rather than out on the streets. | |
| dp10a043 | dp10a | The criminal justice system should accommodate the process of negotiation between offender and victim. | |
| dp10a044 | dp10a | It is better to incarcerate persistent offenders for longer periods since this will prevent future crimes from taking place. | |
| dp10a045 | dp10a | In order to deter potential offenders, heavier sentences should be imposed in the Netherlands. | |
| dp10a046 | dp10a | Officials in the criminal justice system have the moral duty to help criminals get back on the right track. | |
| dp10a047 | dp10a | Unless the perpetrator of a serious crime receives an unconditional prison sentence, he will continue to pose a threat to society. | |
| dp10a048 | dp10a | The best form of punishment is one which, given the hard caused by the crime, maximizes the possibilities for restitution and compensation. | |
| dp10a049 | dp10a | To ensure the safety of citizens, perpetrators of serious crimes should be incarcerated as long as possible. | |
| dp10a050 | dp10a | An imposed sentence must really feel like punishment by the offender. | |
| dp10a051 | dp10a | Punishment is deserved suffering. | |
| dp10a052 | dp10a | When criminal statistics show the prevalence of a particular offence to be increasing, the severity of punishment for that offence should also increase. | |
| dp10a053 | dp10a | Even for alternative sanctions the infliction of suffering should be a prominent feature. | |
| dp10a054 | dp10a | Severe sentencing has a deterrent effect on potential offenders. | |
| dp10a055 | dp10a | Punishment without an element of suffering is no real punishment. | |
| dp10a056 | dp10a | A criminal process can only be qualified as a success when the victim is satisfied with the outcome. | |
| dp10a057 | dp10a | Criminal prosecution is superfluous in situations where offender and victim have, as a result of mutual consultation, found a solution to the conflict. | |
| dp10a058 | dp10a | In establishing type and severity of punishment, the possibilities for re-socialization should first be considered. | |
| dp10a059 | dp10a | The central focus of the criminal justice system should be re-socialization. | |
| dp10a060 | dp10a | Compensation to the victim, if possible, is more important than inflicting suffering on the offender. | |
| dp10a061 | dp10a | The most important role of the criminal justice system is to re-socialize criminals. | |
| dp10a062 | dp10a | Severe sentencing increases the credibility of the criminal justice system. | |
| dp10a063 | dp10a | Imposing a suspended sentence can also be justified for serious crimes. | |
| dp10a064 | dp10a | Suspended sentences are a typical example of too lenient sentencing in the Netherlands. | |
| dp10a065 | dp10a | Suspended sentences are damaging for public confidence in the judiciary. | |
| dp10a066 | dp10a | A suspended sentence is an effective means of preventing future criminal behavior of an offender. | |
| dp10a067 | dp10a | Offenders do not really experience a suspended sentence as punishment. | |
| dp10a068 | dp10a | A suspended sentence hardly has a deterrent effect. | |
| dp10a069 | dp10a | A suspended sentence provides offenders a chance to improve their lives. | |
| dp10a070 | dp10a | Suspended sentences are not severe enough to be effective. | |
| dp10a071 | dp10a | A suspended sentence offers an offender more possibilities for staying on the right track than an unconditional sentence. | |
| dp10a072 | dp10a | A suspended sentence can also be acceptable for offenders with prior convictions. | |
| dp10a073 | dp10a | Suspended sentences are effective means for changing the criminal behavior of individuals. | |
| dp10a074 | dp10a | All things considered, I have a positive attitude with respect to the imposition of suspended sentences. | |
| dp10a075 | dp10a | A suspended sentence provides offenders a second chance. | |
| dp10a076 | dp10a | I do not believe that suspended sentences can prevent offenders from reoffending. | |

| dp10a078 | dp10a | Were the questions sufficiently clear? | |
