ABSTRACT

In recent decades, researchers have produced a wealth of knowledge on the consequences of working within the prison for correctional staff and have documented an array of negative work-related outcomes. Within this line of inquiry, a small but growing area of study has emerged that examines the imbalance between work demands and home life – termed work-family conflict. Researchers categorize work-family conflict into three dimensions, including strain-based, behavior-based and time-based conflict. However, the work-family conflict literature for correctional staff lacks in-depth qualitative investigation that explores how these types of conflict emerge. In this study, we draw from 18 focus groups of correctional staff across all adult facilities in one state to explore how the types of work-family conflict manifest for correctional staff. We find that each dimension of conflict reportedly manifested through a different theme: emotional disconnection for strain-based conflict, correctional instinct for behavior-based conflict, and prisonizing the home for time-based conflict. Furthermore, we analyzed the manifestations of work-family conflict within a correctional subculture lens to understand the mechanisms that drive these manifestations.

冲突如何为教养人员“流血”:通过教养亚文化探索工作家庭冲突

摘要

在最近的几十年中,研究人员对监狱工作对惩教人员的后果产生了丰富的知识,并记录了一系列与工作有关的负面结果。在这方面的研究中,出现了一个规模很小但正在增长的研究领域,该领域研究了工作需求和家庭生活之间的不平衡,即工作与家庭之间的冲突。。研究人员将工作家庭冲突分为三个维度,包括基于压力的冲突,基于行为的冲突和基于时间的冲突。但是,惩教人员的工作家庭冲突文献缺乏深入的定性研究,无法探讨这些类型的冲突是如何产生的。在这项研究中,我们从一个州的所有成人设施中的18个惩教人员焦点小组中吸取了经验,探讨了惩教人员的工作与家庭之间的冲突类型。我们发现,据报道,冲突的每个维度都通过不同的主题体现出来:基于压力的冲突的情感脱节,基于行为的冲突的矫正本能以及关押家庭基于时间的冲突。此外,我们分析了矫正亚文化视角下的工作与家庭冲突的表现,以了解驱动这些表现的机制。
