The Custody Rating Scale, Initial Security Level Placement, and Women Offenders

Publication year: 2002 | Cataloged on: Oct. 31, 2006
ANNOTATION: The overrepresentation of federally-sentenced Aboriginal women in higher levels of security and custody levels is examined. Sections in this report are: executive summary; introduction; methods; results for initial security placement, custody rating scale, concurrent validity, and predictive validity; and discussion. It appears that the disproportion of Aboriginal women at higher levels of security is warranted.
