Abstract
Programming elements of reintegrative shaming into correctional institutions has become increasingly common. One popular program of this type is the Impact of Crime on Victims Classes (ICVC). Although the community typically envisioned in reintegrative research is one to which offenders return on prison release, we propose that the ICVC may have an effect on victimization within the institution, applying a theoretical conceptualization of the prison as its own community. Utilizing interrupted time-series analysis, we find that these classes, as a whole, did not significantly decrease institutional misconduct.
