Sexual Precedence Reduces the Perceived Legitimacy of Sexual Refusal
A hypothesis derived from marital rape laws suggests that women are perceived as obligated to have sex by precedence. Subjects who read a rape scenario were more likely to perceive that the resisting woman should have sex and less likely to label the act as rape if the couple had had coitus 10 times before (high precedence) than once or never An alternative hypothesis derived from the common law on `easements by prescription" suggests that sexual…
Feminist perspectives and the criminal justice curriculum
Feminist perspectives have had major impacts on theoretical and curricular developments in a wide range of academic fields. Despite the significant volume of feminist scholarship and research produced in criminology over the past decade, however, these perspectives do not appear to have had much effect on criminal justice education. In this paper I draw upon the curriculum transformation literature from women's studies to offer a model for incorp…

The Role of Bystanders in Crime Control
The purpose of this paper is to illustrate and explain the role bystanders play in crime control. We describe the range of bystanders' reactions to crime including nonintervention, indirect intervention, direct intervention, and spontaneous vigilantism, and cite illustrations of each from mass media accounts. Using evidence from social psychological research, we discuss conditions under which each type of reaction would be expected to occur. Evid…
Personal Control and Inmate Adjustment to Prison
Although this concept has rarely been investigated systematically, the prison is an environment that severely limits inmates’personal control. This article applies theoretical and empirical advances in the area of personal control to the issue of inmate adjustment to prison. Personal control has three components: outcome control, choice, and predictability of future events. Research findings suggesting adverse impacts of limited control are discu…

Sentencing Reform and the Correctional System
In recent years, various determinate sentencing models have been proposed to promote equity in sentencing and prisoner release certainty. This article examines the implementation of Minnesota's determinate sentencing law as it relates to prisoners and the state correctional system, It reviews the extent of the reform's success in achieving predictability in prisoner release dates and equity in sentencing. Organizational, political, and transition…
Psychological Effects of the Predictability of Prison Release
Although the determinate sentence is generally discussed as a unified concept, it appears to be comprised of two independent factors which can be considered separately‐equity in sentencing and predictability of release. This paper features one component of the determinate sentence, predictability of release, in an attempt to demonstrate the advantages of providing inmates with advance information concerning their release dates. Evidence from psyc…
