A factor analytic study of the demographic characteristics of incarcerated females.
Produced 10 identifiable factors in a factor analytic study of demographic and behavioral variables on female (N = 100) inmates of an adult correctional facility in the South. While the items were those frequently cited as contributory--abuse, neglect, etc.--they did not cluster as expected, but took on a more unitary structure, except for behavioral data from the interviews that were highly interrelated either positively or negatively.
