| 要約: | Correctional or rehabilitation programmes have better effects on offenders in prisons that have a
positive social climate. Different aspects of prison environment may have different impacts on different groups
of inmates. This study was carried out to identify the underlying factors manifesting prison climates to gain
humanitarian insights in designing and executing effective rehabilitation programmes among drug-abuse inmates.
Data were collected using self- administered questionnaires. A total of 376 drug-abuse inmates were involved
in this study. The respondents were selected using a two-step sampling technique. An area sampling technique
was performed followed by a simple random sampling. Findings of this study, using a confirmatory factor
analysis, supplement the literature examining the underlying specific factors manifesting the latent constructs
of prison climate. The study suggested that Reintegration, Activities, and Right and rules were aspects of
drug-abuse prison climate which require emphasis to enhance the effectiveness of prison rehabilitation
programmes. |
