Studies of prison violence typically focus either on individual-level aggression or large-scale collective acts. Most past work consists of case studies, limiting the generalizations from the results. The present study used data from 371 state prisons and measures of both individual and collective violence and attempted to identify the structural, managerial, and environmental determinants of prison disorder Findings suggest that poor prison management is a predictor of rates of assault toward inmates and staff: However; the likelihood of prison riots is largely independent of structural, managerial, and environmental factors. The article also discusses the implication for public policy.
