Abstract:
Brazilian prisons are typically crowded and poorly resourced, yet at the same time may be active places. Of particular interest to the sociology of prisons is institutional reliance on inmate collaboration and self-ordering, not only to maintain prison routines, but, in the most low-staffed prisons, security and prisoner conduct as well. This article explores the roles played by inmates in running one such penal institution, a men's police lockup in Rio de Janeiro. At the time of research the lockup had over 450 prisoners, but just five officers. Both on and off the wings inmates performed janitorial, clerical, and guard-like duties, mostly under the supervision not of officers but other prisoners. The lockup appeared to be operating under a relatively stable, if de facto and provisional order, premised on common needs and shared beliefs, and maintained by a hierarchy of prisoner as well as officer authority.

Abstract:
Research on incarcerated offenders trained to help prisoners change is rare because programs that equip inmates with practical capacities for helping others rehabilitate in prison hardly exist. An exception is the Field Ministry program in Texas, which enlists inmates who have graduated from a prison-based seminary to work as “Field Ministers” and serve other inmates in various capacities. We hypothesize that inmate exposure to Field Ministers is inversely related to antisocial factors and positively to prosocial ones. We applied manifest-variable structural equation modeling to analyze data from a survey of a random sample of male inmates at three maximum-security prisons where the Field Ministry program operated. We found that inmates exposed more frequently to the Field Ministry and for a longer time period tended to report lower levels of criminological risk factors and aggressiveness and higher levels of virtues and predictors of human agency as well as religiosity and spirituality.

Abstract:
Socioemotional Selectivity Theory (SST) (Carstensen, 1992, 1993) accounts for lifespan changes in human social networks and for the motivations which underlie those changes. SST is applied in this research with 256 prison inmates and non-inmates, ages 18–84, from Mississippi, Kansas, and New Mexico. Two research questions sought to identify (a) whether inmate networks change in size, and (b) whether overall closeness within an inmate's network changes over the adult years. Results indicate that older inmates, much like older non-inmates, have few peripheral partners, are buffered from the wider population of prisoners, and interact within a small group of very close partners. Although older inmates are not completely isolated, they do maintain fewer network partners as age increases, like their non-incarcerated counterparts, and overall are as emotionally close to network members as non-inmates.

Abstract:
We estimate the increasing health care needs of American inmates by combining data on inmate demographics and national health trends. Decades of harsh punishment combined with demographic shifts have led to a “greying” prison population that is a source of concern for policymakers. Our estimates reveal that inmate health care needs are significant and growing beyond what is predicted by their age profile. While the fraction of inmates aged 40 or more increased by 49 percent between 1996 and 2004, the prevalence of medical conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, asthma, and cancer among inmates grew between 177 and 268 percent.

Abstract:
AbstractIn 2017, a smoking ban was introduced in Danish prisons and detention centers. In some of these institutions, inmates are locked in for up to 23 hours per day. The only time inmates can smoke are when staff accompanies them outside to smoke. The smoking ban was instituted to avoid exposing staff and fellow inmates to passive smoking. If a prisoner violates the smoking ban, a disciplinary punishment is imposed. The punishment is up to five days in a penalty cell (solitary confinement).This article discusses whether the smoking ban interferes with the basic human rights of prisoners as expressed by the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR). The smoking ban in Danish prisons is then compared to the rules governing residential homes in order to examine whether it violates the principle of equal treatment. Finally, the article discusses whether the penalty for violating the smoking ban is proportional to the purpose of the ban on smoking. The article concludes that a prisoner’s right to smoke in his or her cell is probably not covered by Article 3 of the ECHR, but rather by Article 8. This is because the smoking ban appears to be neither proportional nor necessary since the previous set of rules – where prisoners were allowed to smoke in their cells, but not allowed to smoke in the common areas of the prison – served the same purpose, but far less intrusively. In addition, the smoking ban likely constitutes discrimination against inmates, cf. ECHR Article 14 in conjunction with Article 8, as residents of residential homes can smoke in their accommodations.

Abstract:
With a majority of inmates being assigned some type of work while incarcerated, work assignments are a staple of U.S. prisons. These work assignments are likely to impact not only prisoner behavior while in prison, but also may impact their ability to obtain gainful employment after prison. Historically, it has been noted that work in prison has been influenced by gender and racial norms and stereotypes. These stereotypical assignments may not be beneficial for inmates, especially in a time when work assignments are increasingly providing the only work skills inmates may receive while incarcerated. Using a nationwide data set of prisoners incarcerated facilities, the current study uses multilevel modeling to examine the nature of work assignments for male and female state prisoners and whether these assignments are based on gender and/or racial stereotypes. Results indicate that there are indeed lingering stereotypes influencing work assignments for men and women in U.S. prisons.

In accordance with the concept of the penal system aims to make inmates as good citizens and responsible in order to return the society and protect the public against the possibility of repeated criminal acts by inmates, as well as the application of the values contained in Pancasila.

Objective: (1) To find out the prevalence of psychiatric disorders among prisonpopulation. (2) To find out whether any association exist between psychiatric disorders anddifferent demographic variables. (3) To assess the severity of the problem and need for theprevision of psychiatric services to jail inmates. Study Design: Crossectional study. Period: Sixmonths starting from June 5th 2007 to November 30th 2007. Setting: Kot Lakpat Jail, Lahore.Method: All the prisoners who had been sentenced by session court for the crime of murderwere the target of the study Sample Size: Five hundred cases were interviewed to completethe study. The study had a 2 stages design. During the first stage all the randomly selectedprisoners (18 or more than 18 years of age and sentenced for the charge or murder) werecalled in the library of the jail and given screening instrument. The GHQ-12 was completed bythe prisoner on voluntary basis with minimal explanation. If the prisoner was unable to reador understand assistant researcher, jail Medical officer had to read it in front of the prisonerand record his responses. In this way expected cases were selected and screened out. In thesecond stage diagnostic interviews were administered by the author on the same day to all theprisoners who scored two and above on the GHQ-12 and 1/10th of those who were low scores(1 or 0). These responses were recorded on rating forms. The author was blind to the scoresof GHQ-12. Results Five hundred jail inmates were interviewed in the study. Out of those total500 prisoners 176 (35.2%) prisoners were GHQ-12 positive cases while 324 (64.80%) prisonerswere GHQ-12 negative (Table I). The difference was statistically highly significant (P<0.00001).Conclusions: In this study the prevalence of minor psychiatric morbidity was assessed. Fivehundred randomly selected prisoners were interviewed. Out of them 397 prisoners wereselected from open prison and 103 prisoners from closed prison. In the first stage GHQ-12 wasadministered to detect the cases. In the second stage PAS was administered to all high score(2 or above) and 10% of low scores. PAS detected minor psychiatric morbidity like depression,anxiety, panic disorder and phobic disorders. Diagnosis was based on DSM-111-R criteria.Their demographic characteristics were also obtained and comparison was made among openand closed prisoners.

Abstract:
This paper uses data collected for an MA Thesis on effects of prison reforms on reformation of inmates in Nyandarua County prisons, Kenya. This study has been necessitated by the need to make the penal system fair and effective. As has been revealed by this study, despite undertaking prison reforms, the attempt to improve the harsh prison conditions has created other problems that negate the reformation and rehabilitation of offenders. The study sought to investigate the effects of prison reforms on reformation of inmates in prisons with a focus on examining the existing prison reforms that have been undertaken in prisons since 2001, the effects of prison reforms on the reformation of prisoners, how Prison reforms have negated the reformation of prisoners, and mechanisms that were in place in prisons to control the negative effects of prison reforms. Major research findings obtained revealed that, though reforms have been implemented, a good portion of the reforms remained un-implemented. This may be explained by the fact that the prison authorities themselves did not put in place deliberate measures to rehabilitate inmates. Besides, there were gaps in the marketability of the skills that the prisoners acquired while in prison. The study noted the upsurge of prison crimes such as substances and drug abuse, rape and sodomy, and prisoner violence/assaults against other prisoners. The study recommends promotion of prison staff because they are the first line of defense in terms of government reformation efforts. Their stronger good will counts in any prisons reformation agenda. The study recommends constant review of prison education and training programmes to conform them to current job market skills for smooth re-integration of prisoners back into the society.

Abstract:
This study draws on a psychophysical scaling technique to assess prisoners' perceptions of the severity of various penal measures. The data used in this study was gathered from face-to-face interviews with 159 male prisoners randomly selected from three separate Canadian federal correctional facilities between August 1993 and May 1994. A punishment severity scale was developed based on respondents' perceptions of various legal sanctions. Subgroups of the overall sample were examined and differences in severity ratings were observed based on a number of socio-demographic variables and variations in one's relationship and experience with the criminal justice system. This research also provides a comparison to studies which examined sentence severity among various court officials, the public and students. Possible explanations for variations among respondents are considered as well as the implications of the findings.

AbstractCollaboration and learning are especially needed in times of change in the workplace. This chapter describes a novel method for developing work practices and enhancing professionals’ proactiveness through collective, participatory experimentation and evaluation. We used the method in a low-security closed prison in Finland to advance prison staff’s rehabilitation work with prisoners. The design, implementation and evaluation of the innovations prison officers introduced to advance their work (recording the inmates’ behaviour and needs into their sentence plans) are illustrated. Besides describing how the method was applied in practice, we also identify and discuss the gaps within prison work where there are opportunities for organisational learning and innovation.

Abstract:
This research explores prisoners’ attitudes for undertaking distance-learning courses whilst in prison, and considers both the benefits and the difficulties experienced by prisoners as a result of their academic work. It is based on over 35 questionnaires completed by 300 current prisoners. The research was conducted in three prisons throughout the country in three different provinces. In addition to providing an in-depth account of the role that education can play during a prison sentence and beyond, it is intended that the experiences shared by these prisoners will provide the basis for additional guidance and support for future distance-learning inmates. The data of this study show that the prisoners in general demonstrated positive attitudes toward using distance education whilst in prisons. The remarkable finding was that the prisoners were self-motivated to engage in the computer and Internet use to continue their academic studies whilst in prison and learn new skills for getting jobs after prison. This finding supports the possibility of the prisoners’ engagement in distance education courses offered at prisons.

Abstract:
When an inmate leaves prison following a sentence for terrorism offenses, their reintegration will depend on whether they can function as a relatively social member of their community. Obstacles such as stigmatization exist for all former convicts, but among steadfast extremists these barriers will be mutual, if they continue to perceive the ingroup-outgroup dichotomy that fed their extremism in the first place. A simple but effective means for determining the likelihood that returning prisoners will act prosocially towards the ‘other’ could be the use of so-called lab-in-field games, which provide small incentives to learn how individuals behave in a given situation, rather than just eliciting their sentiment. This chapter outlines the potential for such an approach. It draws on field research conducted in Indonesia in 2018, which involved interviews with 28 former convicted terrorists, regarding their practical experiences with reintegration and interactions in the community.
