Summary: |
The study analyzes the
demographic, crime and victimization profile
in a sample of 21 women imprisoned in
Murcia II, and compares the influx of violent
behaviors among men and women to
determine which group is most vulnerable
while in prison. A survey was used to compile
data and then a cross-sectional study with a
confidence of 95% was carried out. Survey
respondents represent 2.1% of this prison
population, have a young profile, have a
couple and come from disadvantaged social
classes. 65.1% of women use drugs while
in prison and more than a half had been
imprisoned before. Regarding victimization
due to gender, women are more vulnerable to
violent behavior than men. |
