Implementing a Trauma-Informed Intervention in a County Jail
This study evaluated the feasibility and preliminary outcomes of implementing Skills Training in Affective and Interpersonal Regulation (STAIR), a trauma-informed intervention, in a southeastern U.S. county jail. Over 15 months, 81 participants were randomized to receive 12 STAIR sessions during incarceration or split between jail and community. Pre- and postintervention data were analyzed for 38 participants. Statistically significant reductions…
Exploring the Association between Procedural Justice in Jails and Incarcerated People’s Commitment to Institutional Rules
The process-based model of self-regulation has been evaluated throughout various agencies of the criminal justice system. However, the model has yet to be tested within jails. The goal of the current study is to fill this gap in the literature. Using a sample of 290 men and women incarcerated in a county jail, this study examines the association between inmates’ procedural justice perceptions of detention officers and their commitment to institut…
Examining External Support Received in Prison and Concerns About Reentry Among Incarcerated Women
Few studies have examined whether social ties influence concerns about reentry among women in prison. Given that a systematic understanding of reentry has the potential to inform research and policy efforts to assist women with transition, this gap is limiting. Our study addresses this void by testing whether social support affects reentry concerns (family, employment, financial, and stigma) among incarcerated women. Results indicate that visits …
Shared Race/Ethnicity, Court Procedural Justice, and Self-Regulating Beliefs
Using survey data from a sample of white, black, and Hispanic incarcerated females (N = 554), we examine if the theoretically hypothesized and empirically demonstrated relationship between procedural justice and obligation to obey the law is substantiated among a sample of offenders and explore the impact that sharing the race/ethnicity of the defense attorney and prosecutor in their most recent conviction has on female inmates' perceptions of co…
Crime Victimization and Divorce
Extemsive research has been conducted regarding factors contributing to the breakdown of marriage, focusing on problems such as infidelity, domestic violence, money problems and mid-life crises. This study explores a new question: does crime victimization contribute to the dissolution of marriage? Unique information from a national panel survey, the National Crime Victimization Survey, was analyzed in a longitudinal format to determine whether ma…
The Influence of Gender on the Placement of Children with Gay or Lesbian Adoptive Parents
This study examines the opinions of men and women from a random phone sample of super voters (those persons voting in the last three out of four possible elections) in Florida (N = 413) toward gay men and/or lesbians as adoptive parents. The survey gathered information on whether the respondents would place boys or girls available for adoption with gay men or lesbians. Controlling for various demographic variables, bivariate logistic regressions …
Criminal Justice Interns’ Observations of Misconduct
In an effort to explore criminal justice interns’ observations of misconduct and reporting patterns of their observations, a survey of criminal justice interns was conducted after their internships were completed. Students from four universities in the South (n = 463) were asked to participate. While only 2 percent of respondents reported observing illegal behavior by criminal justice agency personnel, over half of the respondents reported observ…
Recidivism of Public and Private State Prison Inmates in Florida
Research Summary: A fundamental claim made in support of private prisons is that they reduce state inmate recidivism. Current knowledge on this empirical question is limited to three prior studies with problematic methodologies. To test this claim better, we use multiple measures of exposure to private prisons to define and analyze multiple treatment/comparison groups of private and public prison inmates. Multivariate survival analysis, controlli…
