Balancing the rights of victim-survivors and impugned persons in public inquiries
Previous research on public inquiries has evaluated deficiencies in truth-seeking or traumatic experiences of victim-survivors of inquiry processes. This article addresses a specific gap in the literature, offering a critical perspective on the Irish approach to procedural fairness in public inquiries. Irish public inquiries have been significantly influenced by judicial development of the right of impugned parties to fair procedures. In contrast…
Common knowledge? Awareness of national and international oversight bodies among incarcerated individuals in Spain
Oversight bodies are recognised as important resources to prevent ill-treatment in places where individuals are deprived of their freedom. Despite this recognition and the existence of such bodies at both national and supra-national levels, little is known about how incarcerated people perceive them. This study sheds light on this issue by examining the awareness of a national and a supra-national body among incarcerated men and women in Spain ( …
Towards a typology of prisoners’ awareness of and familiarity with prison inspection and monitoring bodies
Inspection and monitoring bodies have an important role in the protection of prisoners’ rights. Although these bodies are seen as widely beneficial, there is limited research examining their operations in practice. This study addresses this gap in the existing literature by identifying unique profiles of prisoners based on their familiarity with prison oversight bodies. In addition, the relationship between profiles and key factors (personal char…
[Y]ou are better off talking to a f****** wall
The ways in which grievance procedures are used and perceived by incarcerated people raise important questions about the operation of procedural justice and legal consciousness and mobilization scholarship in settings where rights are especially vulnerable. This paper analyzes perceptions and usage of the grievance procedure for incarcerated people using survey data from people (N = 508) in three prisons in Ireland. We find that incarcerated peop…
Agree or Disagree
Previous research shows that the direction of rating scales can influence participants' response behavior. Studies also suggest that the device used to complete online surveys might affect the susceptibility to these effects due to the different question layouts (e.g., horizontal grids vs. vertical individual questions). This article contributes to previous research by examining scale direction effects in an online multi-device survey conducted w…
Experiencing human rights protections in prisons
The protection of human rights in prison gives rise to unique challenges. The power differentials and dynamics involved, the need to balance considerations of security with those of dignity, and the lack of openness to the outside world mean that the implementation of human rights principles takes on a particular importance in these environments. International human rights law has increasingly emphasized the importance of external oversight of pr…
The Impact of Confidentiality Assurances on Participants’ Responses to Sensitive Questions
Privacy, anonymity, and confidentiality are issues often addressed when collecting sensitive information (Tourangeau, 2017). Despite the importance of the concept, there is no consensus on what constitutes a sensitive question (Tourangeau, Rips, & Rasinski, 2000). According to Tourangeau and Yan (2007), a question is considered sensitive when it asks for a socially undesirable answer, requesting that the respondent admits that he or she has viola…
