520 |a The Washington State Department of Corrections indicates that there is a rise in prison violence for both men and women in their facilities. Using unique data on every inmate incarcerated in the state of Washington between 2009 and 2011, we correlate inmates’ prevalence of prison violence with background characteristics of inmates, their ties to the community, and the effects of prison classification and programming. We find that race/ethnicity, community ties, and education are significantly tied to prison violence. Further, prison classification identifies those inmates most likely to be violent while incarcerated. Surprisingly, no effect of gender on prison violence is seen. Implications for our findings are discussed.
