- Prisoners are socialised into adopting inmate code (hostile and aggressive)
- University of Crime - learn from hard criminals (through vicarious reinforcement, to gain the popularity status of these hard criminals) which can undermine rehabilitation and also lead to recidivism.
- Hostility is still present upon release which makes it difficult for the offender to cope, increasing the possibility of recidivism.
Does custodial sentencing teach people not to offend or teach offeders not to get caught?
