A content analysis revealed themes including “not helpful”; “respectful”; “no contact”; and “caseload concerns” emerged. Written comments were analyzed separately for male and female inmates. A narrative compiled the most comprehensive comments and provided an overall picture about inmates’ perceptions of correctional counselors. Findings revealed female inmates more often described correctional counselors as rude and disrespectful than male inmates; however, male inmates more often expressed concern that counselors were not adhering to prison policies. Female and male inmates alike criticized correctional counselors for having a general lack of knowledge or were incompetent in their job and they believed counselors were not motivated or lacked responsiveness to inmate requests.","PeriodicalId":91861,"journal":{"name":"Corrections : policy, practice and research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/23774657.2020.1810173","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48688211","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The current study describes the first 2 years of the Swift and Certain (SAC) Probation program in Jefferson Parish, LA. We examine progress toward five of the seven program goals, including reduction of substance use, reduction in prison overcrowding, increase in effective resource use, reduction in new crimes, and increase in personal and societal responsibility. We find that the program appears to meeting these five goals and we contextualize these findings with a description of participants’ experience in the program that includes results of a perceptions survey. However, progress on the other two goals has remained more elusive and we discuss the challenges for the program in meeting these, and conclude with implications for both research and practice.","PeriodicalId":91861,"journal":{"name":"Corrections : policy, practice and research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/23774657.2020.1807425","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41279579","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To test this in online dating, an experimental audit used constructed dating app profiles of Black, Latinx, and White males and females. Experimental and control profiles were identical with the exception of a parole disclosure statement in bios of experimental profiles. Surprisingly, the White female profile disclosing parole was the only one to match with significantly fewer users. We analyzed the racial congruence of matches and found that White parole disclosing profiles were more likely to attract White users and Black and Latinx profiles attracted more heterogeneous users regardless of parole disclosure. The interaction between racial and criminal stigma and implications for relationship prospects among the formerly incarcerated are considered. Although the timing of criminal history disclosure matters, criminal stigma is unique in app-based dating, having more negative effects for Whites, which differs from other social domains.","PeriodicalId":91861,"journal":{"name":"Corrections : policy, practice and research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/23774657.2020.1799726","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43405117","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Job demands make the job more difficult and reduce positive work outcomes such as job involvement. Job resources make the job more pleasant and aid employees in doing their work, leading to increases in positive work outcomes, such as job involvement. Ordinary least squares (OLS) regression analysis of survey data from 120 correctional staff in a medium-security correctional center provides partial support for the job demands-resources model on job involvement for Nigerian correctional staff, with job resources showing greater effects than job demands in building job involvement. Specifically, the job demand variables were fear of victimization on the job and role overload, and the job resource variables were job variety, quality training, and job autonomy. Quality training and job autonomy had statistically significant effects on job involvement in a multivariate OLS regression analysis. Fear of victimization, role overload, and job variety had nonsignificant effects in the regression analysis.","PeriodicalId":91861,"journal":{"name":"Corrections : policy, practice and research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/23774657.2020.1800434","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42673941","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There are a number of reasons to avoid pursuing correctional work, including unfavorable working conditions, high levels of organizational and occupational stress, and negative cultural stigma. However, despite these reasons to avoid pursing a correctional career, there are still well over four-hundred thousand correctional staff in the United States. In order to contribute to a burgeoning literature on why correctional staff stay or quit, this study directly asks correctional staff what motivated them to pursue the occupation and why they stayed. This study draws from 18 focus groups of correctional staff from all 12 adult correctional facilities in one state. Qualitative findings illustrate motivations (social connections, criminal justice career path, work environment, benefits) to pursue a correctional career and reasons for staying (personality, workstyle, comradery, retirement).","PeriodicalId":91861,"journal":{"name":"Corrections : policy, practice and research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/23774657.2020.1793429","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42658782","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Psychological surveys of work-release transitional center participants in Georgia obtained their reports about attitudes, social norms, and perceived behavioral control (PBC) to predict positive financial management intentions. Consistent with the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB), multivariate analysis revealed that those predictors were positively related to intentions, as was long-term incarceration status. The study also examined the extent to which participants may have provided misleading reports via socially desirable response patterns (SD). SD scores were measured with the Crowne–Marlowe short-form scale. SD had different relationships to each of the TPB predictors, which included a puzzling negative relationship to PBC. Alternative theories about SD reporting were used to interpret these relationship patterns as well as to consider how the level of SD scores affected associations between the TPB predictors and intentions. A main conclusion is that transitional center participants’ SD tendencies did not confound inferences that PBC promoted positive financial management intentions nor other findings regarding attitudes, norms, and incarceration status. Implications for future psychological survey research are discussed.","PeriodicalId":91861,"journal":{"name":"Corrections : policy, practice and research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/23774657.2020.1789520","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44890766","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Today, there are 4.5 million individuals on community supervision in the United States, nearly double the incarcerated population. Utilizing data from a two-year exploratory study of reentry experiences, we posit that contrary to its stated purpose of rehabilitation and reintegration, community supervision operates under mechanisms that hinder one’s ability to reenter society. Supervision places the formerly incarcerated person within an invisible enclosure that mandates obedience to a system designed to ensure failure. Supervision requirements – reporting requirements, programming, and fees – force the parolee or probationer to decide between their own wellbeing and obedience to the rules. Although some scholars view community supervision as an alternative to incarceration, the reality is that community supervision often serves to delay incarceration rather than serve as an alternative. When situated within a Foucauldian framework, our data illustrates how community supervision is merely an evolution of the carceral apparatus that ignores rehabilitation and serves to perpetuate the carceral continuum.","PeriodicalId":91861,"journal":{"name":"Corrections : policy, practice and research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-05-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/23774657.2020.1768967","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44292387","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article seeks to address that gap and argues that (1) prisons are designed to achieve specific goals, (2) there is minimal empirical evidence that variation in architecture achieves these goals, and (3) the theory by which architecture achieves these goals is inconsistent and unclear.

However, they are key decision-makers who are poised to serve as gatekeepers to reentry and reincarceration given their authority to release offenders, set supervision conditions and revoke post-release supervision. By virtue of their function and place within the correctional continuum they are also well-positioned to act as a check and balance within that continuum. This article builds upon the idea first offered by Paparozzi and Guy (2009) that parole boards’ discretionary decisions, if properly constituted, can serve as a lynchpin to sound correctional practice. We advance this argument by further arguing that paroling authorities are indispensable feedback loops to correctional agency leaders regarding how policy translates into practice and how practice impacts policy, especially the adoption and use of evidence-based practices as they pertain to reentry and reincarceration.","PeriodicalId":91861,"journal":{"name":"Corrections : policy, practice and research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-05-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/23774657.2018.1470478","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45409050","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
