Environmental Determinants of Prison Climate in Croatia
Prison climate can be considered as more or less opened or closed, and less opened prison climate results in more negative treatment outcomes and higher recidivism (Van der Helm et al., 2011). Since prisons are dynamic social environments with multiple factors influencing their psychosocial climate, the aim of this study was to investigate in which degree prison climate is determined by prison conditions, prison experiences and emotional climate. Data were collected on the convenience sample of 674 prisoners in Croatia. Prison conditions were operationalised by conditions in which prisoners are serving prison sentence (open- closed) and time spent in prison. Prison experiences encompassed: (1) level of tolerance for the various deprivations related to prison life (e.g. separation from family, loss of freedom), and (2) participation in various activities in prison (e.g. work, visits, recreation), while emotional climate referred to observed positive and negative collective emotions generated through the prisoners’ interactions. Four different dimensions of prison climate were investigated: support, growth, atmosphere and repression (Van der Helm et al., 2009). The most consistent contribution to all dimensions of prison climate had emotional climate and expressed level of tolerance to deprivation. Results are discussed within the prison climate - effectiveness of correctional treatment relationship framework
