The survey and census were part of a series of data
collection efforts undertaken to assist policymakers in assessing and
remedying deficiencies in the nation's correctional institutions. The

characteristics of inmates, criminal and correctional background, court
experience, and prison routine. The census gathered a wide range of
information on all federal correctional facilities operating in 1974.
The focus of the survey file is on the inmate, while the focus of the
