| This study uses regression analysis to examine the effects of sexually predatory inmates on Federal correctional officers. Thios study will examine demographic and disciplinary records for inmates between 1991-1998 along with the security level of the institution at the time of the incident. Social climate data will provide contextual information with regard to the gender of correctional officer. We will hypothesize that with the increase of female correctional officers at higher security level institutions the rate of sexual misconduct will increase. In addition we will examine tangible steps that institutions could take in the management of sexually predatory inmates. |
