The present study uses a prospective longitudinal research design to examine whether previously identified risk factors for prison interpersonal violence can predict violent prison misconduct in Northern Ireland (NI). Administrative data drawn from the records of 429 adult males imprisoned on November 22, 2017 were used to predict involvement in violent prison misconduct during a 1-year follow-up period. The results revealed that only a small number of previously identified risk factors were found to be significant in the NI context. Nationality, neighborhood deprivation, history of addiction, submission of prison complaints, past involvement in prison misconduct, and number of incarcerations emerged as significant, while religion, head injury/epilepsy, property offences, and prison visits were significant at the marginal level. Given the variation in risk factors identified as significant in the NI context compared to previous research, it is argued that cultural context matters when attempting to generalize the risk factors for prison interpersonal violence from one jurisdiction to another. These results offer some support for the importation theory, although it should be noted that the inclusion of prison environmental factors was limited due to the nature of the data. It is argued that specialist services and supports should be provided to address the factors contributing to interpersonal prison violence, including interventions to improve feelings of fairness, identify and treat underlying medical issues, as well as support visitation.

监狱中人际暴力的风险因素:来自北爱尔兰纵向行政监狱数据的证据

本研究使用前瞻性纵向研究设计来检验先前确定的监狱人际暴力风险因素是否可以预测北爱尔兰 (NI) 的暴力监狱不当行为。从 2017 年 11 月 22 日被监禁的 429 名成年男性的记录中提取的行政数据被用来预测在 1 年的随访期间参与暴力监狱不当行为。结果表明,只有少数先前确定的风险因素被发现在 NI 环境中具有重要意义。国籍、邻里剥夺、成瘾史、提交监狱投诉、过去参与监狱不当行为和入狱次数是显着的,而宗教、头部受伤/癫痫、财产犯罪和监狱探访在边缘水平上显着。鉴于与以前的研究相比,在 NI 环境中被确定为显着的风险因素的变化,有人认为,当试图将监狱人际暴力的风险因素从一个司法管辖区推广到另一个司法管辖区时,文化环境很重要。这些结果为输入理论提供了一些支持,但应该指出的是,由于数据的性质,监狱环境因素的纳入是有限的。有人认为,应提供专家服务和支持以解决导致人际监狱暴力的因素,包括改善公平感、识别和治疗潜在医疗问题以及支持探视的干预措施。有人认为,当试图将监狱人际暴力的风险因素从一个司法管辖区推广到另一个司法管辖区时,文化背景很重要。这些结果为输入理论提供了一些支持,但应该指出的是,由于数据的性质,监狱环境因素的纳入是有限的。有人认为,应提供专家服务和支持以解决导致人际监狱暴力的因素,包括改善公平感、识别和治疗潜在医疗问题以及支持探视的干预措施。有人认为,当试图将监狱人际暴力的风险因素从一个司法管辖区推广到另一个司法管辖区时,文化背景很重要。这些结果为输入理论提供了一些支持,但应该指出的是,由于数据的性质,监狱环境因素的纳入是有限的。有人认为,应提供专家服务和支持以解决导致人际监狱暴力的因素,包括改善公平感、识别和治疗潜在医疗问题以及支持探视的干预措施。尽管应该指出,由于数据的性质,监狱环境因素的纳入是有限的。有人认为,应提供专家服务和支持以解决导致人际监狱暴力的因素,包括改善公平感、识别和治疗潜在医疗问题以及支持探视的干预措施。尽管应该指出,由于数据的性质,监狱环境因素的纳入是有限的。有人认为,应提供专家服务和支持以解决导致人际监狱暴力的因素,包括改善公平感、识别和治疗潜在医疗问题以及支持探视的干预措施。
