| Summary: | Women face many potential difficulties when under community supervision, and more research that examines their experiences there is needed. This study investigates how women under supervision relate to their supervisors and how these relationships impact their tendencies toward supervisory compliance. Using secondary data, predictors of recidivism are evaluated in 16 Michigan counties using the Dual Role Relationship Inventory–Revised (DRI-R) and its shorter form (DRI-SF), which quantify relationship quality. We found that one of the most important predictors of rule compliance for women under supervision is their relationship with their probation or parole officer. Thus, probation and parole officers should prioritize their personal relationships with their female clients by considering their unique circumstances while striving to cultivate an environment of fairness and mutual respect. This article advances our understanding of how to administer effective community supervision for women. |
