Improving Prison Classification Procedures in Vermont: Applying an Interaction Model, 1983-1985
The purpose of this data collection was to develop and test
an interactive model for classifying prisoners. The model includes
person variables, environmental or situation variables, and
prison-environmental interaction variables in order to study the
interactions between individuals and their environments and to predict
offender behaviors such as escape, misconduct, and violence. The model
was designed to enhance the predictive validity of the National
Institute of Corrections' classification system that was being used in
Vermont prisons. Included are scores from the National Institute of
Corrections' custody classification and reclassification instruments,
scores from a needs assessment, sentencing information, and
characteristics of the prison in which the inmate was housed.
