Abstract Although there is substantial attention to judicial decision-making during sentencing, fewer studies have examined decision-making post sentencing. Further, the interactions of probationer race and additional background factors have been under studied in post-sentencing decision-making. This study utilizes the focal concerns perspective to examine whether race interacts with gender, family status, and employment status in predicting sanctioning probationers for noncompliance. A sample of probation review hearings within an eight-month period in three domestic violence courts were selected. Results demonstrate that race does not interact with other background factors in influencing a jail sanction, while non-compliant behaviors are the strongest predictors.

种族，性别，家庭和就业状况对缓刑犯因违规行为而受到制裁的影响

摘要尽管量刑期间对司法决策的关注度很高，但对量刑后决策的研究较少。此外，缓刑种族与其他背景因素之间的相互作用已在量刑后的决策中进行了研究。这项研究利用焦点关注的观点来检验种族是否与性别，家庭状况和就业状况发生相互作用，从而预测对违规者的制裁。选择了三个家庭暴力法院在八个月内进行的缓刑复审听证的样本。结果表明，种族不会与其他影响监狱制裁的背景因素相互作用，而违规行为是最有力的预测指标。
