Rehabilitative Culture in Prisons for People Convicted of Sexual Offending

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Book cover Sexual Crime and the Experience of Imprisonment

Part of the book series: Sexual Crime ((SEXCR))

Abstract

In this chapter we will describe and discuss some practical ways of creating rehabilitative cultures in prisons housing people convicted of sexual offences. Our interest in prison culture began in 2002 when we conducted a study of why some men in prison deny their sexual offending (Mann, Webster, Wakeling, & Keylock, 2013). Before we began that study, we expected to find individual psychological explanations for denial, such as shame, or family factors, such as family support for denial. These explanations certainly existed, but more notably we found that men talked about feeling unsafe, feeling stigmatised, and feeling humiliated by other people in prison and also by staff. The overall finding was that when men convicted of sexual offences felt psychologically and physically unsafe in prison, their personal resources were consumed by finding ways to feel safe, and denial of their offences was one useful way to reduce their anxiety.

Notes

  1. 1.

    Strain theory would suggest that poor prison conditions would lead to emotional pain and misconduct as a way of alleviating the pain.

  2. 2.

    Rational choice theorists argue that poor prison conditions result in disorder as a consequence of a cost-benefit analysis, with residents feeling they have little to lose and much to gain from disruptive behaviour.
