Abstract
The application of radio frequency identification device (RFID) technology to prevent inmate misconduct in a women’s prison in Cleveland, Ohio was evaluated. An interrupted time series design was employed to analyze administrative data. Interviews were conducted with 89 inmates and 21 correctional and investigative staff. A process evaluation found that the advanced applications of the RFID system theorized to prevent inmate misconduct were not initiated. The resulting study thus evaluates RFID when employed at its most basic level as a perimeter control device and aid in investigations. Results indicate that RFID did not deter inmate misconduct.
