Abstract

Clear et al. (2000) examined the value of religion in prisons and identified intrinsic and extrinsic meanings for inmates turning to religion. This research expanded Clear et al.'s work by using self-report data from former inmates regarding ideas developed in the prior qualitative study, as well as included new items that may further clarify the role of religion in prison. Using descriptive statistics and other analyses, limited support was found for Clear et al.'s (2000) findings.
