Although research focusing on informal methods of control is sparse, studies have indicated these methods are essential for facilities to operate efficiently. This exploratory descriptive study examined differences in former jail and prison inmate perceptions of nine methods of informal control.

Differences found between the two groups, as well as recommendations for future research are discussed.
