In 2003, the US Senate and Congress passed the Prison Rape
Elimination Act (PREA), prompting a number of research projects
that cumulatively began to broaden and deepen our understanding of
this complex aspect of prison life. Risk Markers for Sexual
Victimization and Predation in Prison contains the results of Dr.
Warren and Dr. Jackson's study, and it extends the literature on
prison rape in important and distinct ways. Their research, which
encompasses the full continuum of sexual behavior among
incarcerated individuals, succeeds in identifying multi-layered
predictive models for different types of sexual behavior across and
within genders. The process by which the authors came to their
study design, their experiences while implementing it, and the
nature and significance of their findings, represent the content of
this book.
