借鉴最近关于囚犯重返社会和性别犯罪途径的学术研究,本研究探讨了社会关系、监禁经历、社区背景以及这些因素与种族的交集如何影响累犯的发生和时间。通过对从监狱释放的女性进行大规模的现代抽样调查,我们发现,有药物依赖、受教育程度较低或有更广泛犯罪历史的女性更有可能在假释时失败,并且在8年的随访期间更容易再犯。我们还观察到教育、吸毒和社区集中劣势对累犯的影响在种族上的差异。这项研究强调了对累犯进行性别内部理论理解的重要性,并对针对女性假释者的政策具有重要意义。
Drawing on recent scholarship on prisoner reentry and gendered pathways to crime, this research explores how social relationships, incarceration experiences, and community context, and the intersection of these factors with race, influence the occurrence and timing of recidivism. Using a large, modern sample of women released from prison, we find that women who are drug dependent, have less education, or have more extensive criminal histories are more likely to fail on parole and to recidivate more quickly during the eight year follow-up period. We also observe racial variation in the effect of education, drug use, and neighborhood concentrated disadvantage on recidivism. This study highlights the importance of an intra-gender, theoretical understanding of recidivism, and has import for policy aimed at female parolees.
