HUERTAS DIAZ, Ómar et al. Perception, expectations and fears of return to freedom in a sample of Colombian prisoners in 2011. Rev. Crim. [online]. 2015, vol.57, n.2, pp.221-233. ISSN 1794-3108.
The objective was to know the perception of convicted male and female inmates in a sample examined at twelve prison facilities of the National Penitentiary and Prison Institute (INPEC) with respect to their return to freedom, and explore their expectations and fears in the face of that eventuality. For this purpose, the instrument known as "questionnaire of expectations, perceptions and fears in the face of return to freedom" was applied in the case of 202 male and female inmates. Likewise, some sociodemographic questions were made, and among them it was found that those perceptions, expectations and fears were nurtured by more than 50% of them, this associated in turn with positive perceptions, high security levels, and high expectations with the exception of items relating to their prospects about getting a job, the training or instruction received and its relationship with labor supply, along with doubts having to do with confidence and trust from the community, as well as with its solidarity and support. Finally, an item referring to their perception about help and economic help to be expected from their families was included. Concerning the scale, it showed a Cronbach Alfa of 0.77, a high reliability index.
