2	The effect of the experience of incarceration on prison inmates De Wet, Karen Jeanne 30 November 2005 (has links) This research was undertaken to establish the effect incarceration of individuals in the total institution called prison has on the incarcerated individuals. A literature study along with an empirical study, with 17 ex-inmates, was completed to explore the environment and circumstances of the institution called prison and the effect it has on the prisoners it incarcerates. Issues discussed include the prison environment, the prisonisation process, the inmate code and the process of incarceration. Also discussed are the presence, activities and influence of the gangs within the prison environment. It would appear that prison has a lasting effect on most prisoners and limited rehabilitative value, although there does appear to be some deterrence value. The subject begs further investigation, especially among a wider mix of inmate type, in order to deliver further recommendations to the South African Department of Correctional Services. / Social work / M.A.(Social Science) Corrections Incarceration Prison Effects of imprisonment Imprisonment experience Prisonisation Induction 365.60968 Prisons -- South Africa Prisoners -- South Africa Adjustment (Psychology) -- South Africa.
