Abstract

In 2018, the Bureau of Justice Statistics released the results of a nine-year longitudinal study that among 412,731 inmates released in 2005, 84% of them were rearrested. This high recidivism rate shows a clear need for reentry intervention to reduce these rates. A key part of reentry intervention should include career readiness, which helps individuals attain skills and education that are congruent to the skills needed in the labor force. Providing career assistance and interventions to those entering the workforce is understanding an individual’s desire and motivation in career and education, and negative career thoughts predict job attainment and satisfaction. The purpose of this study was to examine the career thoughts of incarcerated students and determine if intersections of their identities effect their career thoughts using the Career Thoughts Inventory and demographic information. The intersections examined include (a) re-offense, (b) disability status, (c) education level, and (d) employment experience. This study focuses on investigating the career thoughts of incarcerated students at a technical college serving only incarcerated adults. Results of this study indicate that these intersections do not have a significant difference with incarcerated students’ career thoughts.
监禁学生的职业思考
2018年,司法统计局发布了一项为期九年的纵向研究结果,在2005年释放的412731名囚犯中,84%被重新逮捕。这一高累犯率表明,显然需要重返社会干预来降低这些比率。重返社会干预的一个关键部分应该包括职业准备,这有助于个人获得与劳动力所需技能相一致的技能和教育。为那些进入职场的人提供职业援助和干预是了解个人在职业和教育方面的愿望和动机,而消极的职业想法可以预测工作成就和满意度。本研究的目的是通过职业思想量表和人口统计信息,检验被监禁学生的职业思想,并确定他们身份的交叉是否影响他们的职业思想。调查的交叉点包括(a)再犯,(b)残疾状况,(c)教育水平,以及(d)就业经历。这项研究的重点是调查一所只为被监禁的成年人服务的技术学院被监禁学生的职业思想。研究结果表明,这些交叉点与被监禁学生的职业思想没有显著差异。
