Matching Treatment and Offender: North Carolina, 1980-1982
These data were gathered in order to evaluate the
implications of rational choice theory for offender rehabilitation. The
hypothesis of the research was that income-enhancing prison
rehabilitation programs are most effective for the economically
motivated offender. The offender was characterized by demographic and
socio-economic characteristics, criminal history and behavior, and work
activities during incarceration. Information was also collected on type
of release and post-release recidivistic and labor market measures.
Recividism was measured by arrests, convictions, and reincarcerations,
length of time until first arrest after release, and seriousness of
offense leading to reincarceration.
