Time Series and Correlational Analyses of Inmate-Initiated Assaultive Incidents in a Large Correctional System

Glenn D. Walters

Psychology Services, Federal Correctional Institution-Schylkill, P.O. Box 700, Minersville, Pennsylvania 17954-0700, U.S.A.

Inmate-initiated assaultive incidents reported by staff in a large correctional system over period of 9 years were subjected to regression and time series analyses. The time series analysis revealed that the assault data curve followed a nonlinear path Several of the significant correlates of inmate-initiated assault (young age, Black-to-White ratio) were anticipated, whereas several others were not (population density staff inexperience). These outcomes are viewed as furnishing preliminary support for a systemic interpretation of prison violence.
