The results of existing research suggest that new generation jail design and operation can positively impact inmates and staff, but the literature is far from unequivocal.

Our results revealed few differences between correctional officers working in traditional units and those posted in new generation units. We discuss the implications of these findings, including the use of direct supervision inmate management in traditional as well as new generation jails.
