Summary: Health and self-regulation of prisoners. A comparative study with participants with no criminal history. Abstract: Traditionally it has been argued that prison is a risk factor for psychological balance. Therefore, this paper aims to evaluate the health and self-regulation of prisoners and non-prisoners, and to explore the association between these two dimensions. 10 prisoners and 10 participants with no criminal history was studied, who were administered the health questionnaire GHQ-28 and the self-regulation scale MAPA. Applying nonparametric tests (Kruskal-Wallis and Spearman Rho correlations), the results show that prisoners have better health and behavioral self-regulation, and that these two dimensions do not correlate in a remarkable way
