Self-assessment of imprisoned women diagnosed with dissocial personality disorder

Summary/Abstract: Functioning of women in prison is still described to a lesser extent in comparison to a functioning of men serve a sentence of imprisonment. It might be conditioned because of too few amount of women among all of prisoners. It seems that there is a need to extend a knowledge about functioning of women in prison because of the fact that more and more women commit a crime and they are subjecting to rehabilitation. This article will be an attempt to show if convicted women diagnosed with antisocial personality disorder show empathy and if they correlate with self-assessment. It was assumed that convicted women with antisocial personality disorder usually present average level of self-assessment, which is correlated with several scales of empathy abilities. Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (SES) and Interpersonal Reactivity Index (IRI) were used to verify the hypothesis. The research was conducted in three prisons. The research and its results are experimental. It is the attempt to focus on women, who are in the process of rehabilitation in order to recognise a piece of their mental structure.
