ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Breaking new ground in research on prisons and inequality, the Pennsylvania Solitary Study (PASS) aims to understand how harsh conditions of confinement may affect health and well-being for incarcerated populations and their communities; identify the effects of solitary confinement on social, economic, and health outcomes after prison release, including physical and mental health conditions; and describe the conditions of living and working in high levels of custody in a large U.S. prison system. PASS is a collaborative, mixed-methods study led by Jessica Simes and Bruce Western (Columbia University), that includes a longitudinal survey of men incarcerated in solitary confinement in a maximum-security prison in Pennsylvania, interviews with incarcerated people and prison staff, a neurocognitive battery administered to incarcerated respondents, and administrative records from the prison and parole systems.

A primary goal of the project is to clean, code, and analyze the rich administrative, survey, qualitative, and neurocognitive data resulting from the PASS data collection. A second goal of the project is to write up and disseminate findings to a broad range of audiences, including academic, policy, and advocacy audiences. A third goal is to drive data-driven prison reform in the areas of solitary confinement and reentry.
