Census of State and Federal Adult Correctional Facilities, 1995
This census is the fifth enumeration of state adult
correctional institutions and the second of federal institutions
sponsored by the Bureau of Justice Statistics and conducted by the
Bureau of the Census. Earlier censuses were completed in 1974 (ICPSR
7811), 1979 (ICPSR 7852), 1984 (ICPSR 8444), and 1990 (ICPSR 9908).
Unlike the previous censuses, all respondents in 1995 were sent the
same survey form. For each facility, information was provided on
physical security, age, functions, capacity, court orders for specific
conditions, one-day counts and average populations, race/ethnicity of
inmates, inmate work assignments, inmate deaths, special inmate
counts, assaults, and incidents caused by inmates.
