An Intersectional Analysis of Agentic Efforts Individuals Under Community Supervision Describe to Improve Their Lives
Scholarship on desistance recognizes the interconnected nature of personal agency and structural influences on desistance. Less is known regarding what specific agentic efforts convicted individuals take in pursuing pathways out of criminal lifestyles. The objectives of the present study are to understand how individuals on probation and parole describe their agentic efforts to improve their lives and examine how these efforts vary by gendered an…
Precarity and Punishment
This research examines how women with histories of felony convictions navigated prominent barriers during the COVID-19 pandemic. Drawing on 94 telephone interviews, we explore how the pandemic intensified longstanding challenges—financial hardship, social isolation, and reintegration difficulties. Findings support ongoing calls for gender-responsive reforms and highlight four critical areas in need of attention: (1) erosion of social capital, (2)…
Examining Sex-Based Measurement Invariance in the Youth Level of Service/Case Management Inventory
Juvenile risk assessments are used to predict likelihood of reoffending in court-involved youths, and inform several decisions throughout court supervision. Accordingly, it is critical that the psychometric properties of juvenile risk assessment instruments are consistent for youths across demographic subgroups, particularly biological sex. This study tests the measurement invariance of the Youth Level of Service/Case Management Inventory (YLS/CM…
A First Step in Understanding Influences on System-Involved Women’s Changes in Financial Need
Financial need strongly predicts women’s recidivism. However, little is known about influences on change in system-involved women’s financial need. Qualitative data from women with significant increases and decreases in financial need show the importance of tailored assistance finding jobs to improve financial status, and the relevance of worsening physical health and limited access to safety-net benefits to increasing financial need. Prior convi…
I’m Going to be Successful Someday”
Women’s agency to construct prosocial lives remains understudied in criminology. This qualitative inquiry explores the nature and outcomes of women’s personal projects, which reflect their agency. In up to five interviews, 401 women on probation and parole explained efforts to improve their lives. Psychological theory on personal projects guided analysis that revealed information on project meaning and facilitators and barriers to project pursuit…
An Exploration of Employment-Related Personal Projects Undertaken by Women on Probation and Parole
This qualitative research investigates the extent to which 401 women under supervision identify employment-related personal projects (i.e., actions taken to achieve abstract goals) as a way to make their lives better. Psychological theory about personal projects and feminist pathways theory guided the analysis. Findings reveal how project meaningfulness, self-efficacy, and social support to carry out the project affect well-being. Structural barr…
Defining Gender-Responsive Services in a Juvenile Court Setting
Scholars have documented the importance of developing gender-responsive services for girls in order to address their unique needs and reasons for entering the juvenile justice system. Although researchers have made progress in efforts to develop gender-responsive services, the research and policy literature does not provide a clear definition of what constitutes a gender-responsive approach. This study examined qualitative interviews with juvenil…
It Depends on the Situation
Scholars have examined women’s identity development in prisons. Less is known if and how identity development affects women in different stages of the correctional system. This study applies narrative identity theory, cognitive transformation theory, and literature on pains of imprisonment to 118 women’s life-story narratives to explore identity change in prisons, jails, and substance abuse treatment. Qualitative analysis revealed noteworthy situ…
Narrative Identity Development and Desistance from Illegal Behavior among Substance-Using Female Offenders
Tracking methods and retention for a longitudinal sample of alcohol‐ and drug‐involved women on probation and parole
Attrition, or the progressive loss of individuals from a sample, poses a major problem in fields that carry out research to inform policy and program design. Attrition reduces statistical power by reducing sample size and compromises the external validity of findings by introducing sampling bias. If sampling bias results from disadvantages that act as barriers to research participation, then it promotes social injustice by excluding disadvantaged…
