To examine the extent of time‐served and regime on incarcerated females, 304 inmates were surveyed about prior lifestyles, violent orientations, and future anticipations of future crime. Results show that women who led a non‐violent lifestyle prior to incarceration might, once released, commit crimes of violence largely due to prison experiences through a prisonisation process. A conclusion arising from this finding is that short prison sentences can be as effective a punishment as long prison sentences with less future options toward acts of criminality. Some implications of this finding are that organisational membership changes attitudes and that female prisonisation is as salient among female inmates as it is among male inmates. A longitudinal study should be conducted on released female offenders and recidivism
