SUMMARY:Procedural justice and legitimacy in prisons in England and Wales

DESCRIPTION:Studies of procedural justice and legitimacy have generally s
 hown that where legal actors employ formal rules in ways that are percei
 ved to be fair and consistent\, greater compliance and cooperation can b
 e achieved. Yet comparatively little is known about the role of legitima
 cy amongst offender groups\, with the experiences of prisoners particula
 rly under explored. In this paper I will present recent findings from a 
 longitudinal survey of more than 3\,000 prisoners across England and Wal
 es\, focusing specifically on the link between procedural fairness and p
 risoner perceptions of legitimacy\, as well as whether those prisoners w
 ho perceive their treatment in prison as legitimate are less likely to g
 o on to reoffend once released. Alongside the substantive findings from 
 this work\, I will also discuss some of the methodological challenges of
  following prisoners during and after their sentence\, and the use of mu
 ltilevel multiple imputation strategies to adjust for survey attrition i
 n the prison context.
