We examine a nationally representative sample of state inmates with co-occurring disorders (CODs) to consider their background, and ascertain whether inmate gender is related to their access to mental health and substance abuse treatment while serving their sentence. Women prisoners were significantly more likely to be given psychotropic medications, access mental health counseling, participate in clinical and non-clinical addictions treatment options, or in fact any type of mental health treatment or substance abuse options. Thus, the findings indicate that there are significant differences for male and female prisoners with CODs and their access to treatment while serving their sentences.

The Power of Storytelling: The Experiences of Incarcerated Women Sharing Their Stories

引用

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF OFFENDER THERAPY AND COMPARATIVE CRIMINOLOGY 2018年第15期62卷 4814-4833页

作者： Bove, Andrew Tryon, Rebecca Univ Southern Maine 96 Falmouth St Portland ME 04103 USA

Women are the fastest growing prison population in the United States. Women who are incarcerated are characterized by significant mental health needs and intense societal stigma. Despite such vulnerabilities, little is known about their experiences or the pathways that lead them toward recovery and rehabilitation. This qualitative research explores the lived experiences of incarcerated women sharing their stories with high school students and their teachers as part of a community outreach project entitled Stories of Change. Six women were interviewed about what it was like to participate in the project. The data were coded and analyzed using phenomenological techniques, and the results were interpreted through a social constructionist framework. Five themes were revealed through an analysis of the interviews: (a) making a contribution, (b) connecting with others, (c) difficulty of telling their story, (d) identifying personal growth, and (e) moving forward. Storytelling is a powerful experience with lasting effects on the teller. This research explores the phenomenon of storytelling within a context of incarceration and stigma. These findings point toward the importance of providing programming to women within the criminal justice system that allows for meaningful interaction with normative individuals and opportunities for storytelling.

Gender and programming: A Comparison of Program Availability and Participation in US prisons

引用

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF OFFENDER THERAPY AND COMPARATIVE CRIMINOLOGY 2017年第6期61卷 611-644页

作者： Crittenden, Courtney A. Koons-Witt, Barbara A. Univ Tennessee Chattanooga TN USA Univ South Carolina Columbia SC USA

The current study examines U.S. prison programming availability and participation by gender on a national level. The authors build upon previous literature by using national-level data, something that has been done in very limited cases previously. The main concern of this study is gender and its effects on programming availability and participation. The U.S. corrections field has undergone major changes in regard to population trends, fiscal constraints, policies, and research over the last few decades without a large-scale examination of the effects of these changes on programming across the United States. In this study, multiple types of programming areas were examined and results indicated that often female prisons (i.e., prisons housing only females) were more likely to offer programs (e.g., mental health options) and women were more likely to participate in many programming options compared with male prisons and men, respectively. We discuss the possible reasons for this and implications for future research.

The prison adjustment of Aboriginal offenders

引用

AUSTRALIAN AND NEW ZEALAND JOURNAL OF CRIMINOLOGY 2014年第3期47卷 336-354页

作者： Ruddell, Rick Gottschall, Shannon Univ Regina Regina SK S4S 0A2 Canada Carleton Univ Ottawa ON K1S 5B6 Canada

This study examined the misconduct of all 18,075 Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal offenders admitted to Canadian federal prisons between 2006 and 2009. We found that Aboriginal prisoners had a higher involvement in incidents of major and minor misconduct than their non-Aboriginal counterparts. Consistent with prior prison research, younger prisoners, males, and those with higher levels of risk and dynamic needs had higher involvement in misconduct as perpetrators. By contrast, prisoners who had participated in violence reduction or substance abuse programs were involved in fewer incidents. Both gang involvement and victimization were also robust predictors of prison misconduct. These findings can guide the development of programmatic responses to help offenders develop better skills to adjust to their incarceration and successfully reintegrate in the community following release from prison. Consistent with the Statistics Canada (2013) definition, Aboriginal refers to persons who are Status Indians, Metis peoples (people of mixed Indian and other ethnicities) and Inuit peoples (persons from the far North).

Feminist Therapy with Incarcerated Women: Practicing Subversion in prison

引用

WOMEN & THERAPY 2011年第1-2期34卷 77-92页

作者： Marcus-Mendoza, Susan Univ Oklahoma Dept Human Relat Norman OK 73019 USA

Feminist psychotherapy is essential to the well-being of women of marginalized women, especially incarcerated women. Although some feminist principles have been applied to programming for women in prison, major feminist inroads have yet to be made into correctional systems. There is a need for a shift to an activist feminist paradigm of ocorrectionso to transform women's correctional facilities into rehabilitative environments. This article describes the characteristics of incarcerated women and issues of mental health care in prisons, explains some of the challenges of conducting feminist therapy in prisons, and presents strategies for feminist therapists involved in this transformative endeavor.

Strategies for Reducing prison Populations

引用

prison Journal 2011年第3 SUPPL.期91卷 138S-159S页

作者： Clear, Todd R. Schrantz, Dennis Rutgers University Newark NJ United States Northpointe Institute for Public Management Golden CO United States

There is a growing U.S. national consensus that with proper attention to the policies that drive the size of prison populations, these populations can be reduced. As several states have reduced prison populations, there is an accumulating record of strategies that reduce prison populations-but little in the way of proven cause and effect based on research or evidence of the degree to which these gains can be sustained and replicated. Concurrently, the current fiscal crisis has created enormous pressure to reduce prison populations, with a first-in-decades showing of political support. This article provides information about the various prison-reduction strategies, with examples of successful initiatives and an eye toward implementing rigorous evaluations. © 2011 SAGE Publications.

Assessing the effectiveness of a trauma-oriented approach to treating prostituted women in a prison and a community exiting program

引用

Journal of Aggression, Maltreatment and Trauma 2009年第3期18卷 293-312页

作者： Ward, Allison Roe-Sepowitz, Dominique Arizona State University School of Social Work Phoenix AZ 85004-0689 411 N. Central Ave. United States

Women who have been prostitutes are social work clients in many clinical, correctional, and community settings. Unique programming that addresses the high levels of trauma symptoms reported by prostituted women has yet to be explored. The purpose of this study is to explore the effectiveness of a group trauma and abuse intervention for prostituted women from two settings, prison and a community exiting program. A quasi-experimental research design was used. Twenty-nine women participated in a 12-week psychoeducational trauma and abuse intervention program called Esuba. All participants reported decreases in trauma symptoms, but the prison group showed a greater number of significant changes in trauma symptomology than the community group. Implications for practice and future research implications are discussed.

The criminal offending-self-esteem nexus - Which version of the self-esteem theory is supported?

引用

prison JOURNAL 2006年第3期86卷 344-363页

作者： Oser, Carrie B. Univ Kentucky Dept Sociol Lexington KY 40506 USA Univ Kentucky Ctr Drug & Alcohol Res Lexington KY 40506 USA

Traditionalists regard crime to be associated with low self-esteem. A second body of literature suggests a rival hypothesis supporting a relationship between crime and high self-esteem. A multivatiate model explored this nexus by examining the impact of demographic characteristics, criminal history, personality traits, and participation in prison programming on self-esteem levels of 134 inmates in two medium-security prisons. Results support the relationship between crime and low self-esteem, with state-raised convicts reporting lower self-esteem levels. In addition, inmates who are emotionally stable, who are less open to novel experiences, and who have participated in counseling or education during incarceration manifest higher self-esteem.

AN EXPLORATION INTO PARTICIPATION IN A FAITH-BASED prison PROGRAM*

Her research contributions include data collection efforts in the areas of capital punishment and sex offender treatment.

Research Summary: The current research investigates the faith, sociodemographic, psychological, and criminal history factors associated with the decision to volunteer for a faith-based program. Operational records were combined with data collected from self-administered surveys. The results of the logistic regression model were successful in identifying factors related to program participation, including factors not included in previous studies. The findings suggest that program participants are motivated to make changes in their lives and are seeking their way in a religious sense. For example, program participants scored higher on average on the motivation for change scale used here, had higher rates of attendance in religious services since incarceration, and were more active in reading sacred scripture. Conversely, inmates who claimed higher levels of knowledge about their faith were less likely to participate in the Life Connections Program examined here. Policy Implications: The results of the analysis suggest that certain religious characteristics are associated with participation in a faith-based program. The implication is that religious program providers need to pay attention to the match between the program content and the charactertistics of their potential program participants. The results also demonstrate the need to capture differences between participants and comparison subjects on dimensions not usually included in evaluations of faith-based programs. Without knowledge of the selection process, there is no way to determine whether observed differences between program participants and “comparisons” are due to actual program effects or are an artifact of preexisting differences between the groups.
