Gerry Gaes

I am a Visiting Scholar at Florida State University and formerly Director of Research for the Federal Bureau of Prisons. I work as a criminal justice consultant and I am currently Principal Investigator for two Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) funded awards -- one involving the 2016 Survey of Prison Inmates and the other involving individual level admission and release records for prison and community supervision. These data are submitted by states to BJS under provisions of the National Corrections Reporting Program. My criminal justice interests include prison privatization, the effects of parole revocations on crime, prison crowding, prison and community program evaluations and modeling criminal justice processes.

Further, the relationship among illness complaints, perceived crowding, and urinary catecholamines was explored. Inmates of a federal corrections institution provided urine samples assayed for epinephrine and norepinephrine, and they supplied self-report data on their perceptions of crowding. Infirmary records were reviewed for each inmate's health history. Inmates resided in one of three housing types that varied in degree to which privacy and crowding were afforded. Housing type with the lowest social density was a private cell, while open dormitories had the highest. An intermediate level of social density was represented by inmates in partitioned dormitories or cubicles. Lower levels of social density were expected to be associated with lower perceived crowding, lower levels of urinary catecholamines, and fewer health complaints. Across all inmates, perceived crowding was positively correlated with levels of urinary catecholamines. Single cell inmates reported less crowding and exhibited lower levels of urinary catecholamines than
