Institutional Adjustment of Offenders Living with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder in a Canadian Federal Penitentiary

Résumé du livre

" ... This study aimed to examine the institutional adjustment of offenders who were diagnosed with an FASD. Ninety-one offenders were included in the study. Of those, 9 offenders were diagnosed with an FASD, 41 were found to have central nervous system deficits unrelated to prenatal alcohol exposure, 14 were found to have insufficient information to make a diagnosis, and 27 were found to have no identified neuropsychological deficits. Offenders in each group were compared on their institutional adjustment, including institutional incidents and charges, program participation, and release types."--Page iii.
