Abstract

One of the most crucial components of the system of resocialization is psychological rehabilitation. The example  of such work is the established Centre of social and psychological rehabilitation and support of convicts before release from one  of the colonies of the Russian Federal Penitentiary Service in the Lipetsk region. There is a unit where they created household  conditions for convicts different from other units and changed frequency, intensity and level of the officers’ influence on the  convicts, where the convict’s personality and his private problems are in the focus. Due to the theoretical aspects of resocialization  and problems of convicts’ rehabilitation the officers developed a Complex psycho-correction programme. The opportunity  to estimate the efficiency of the Programme appeared two years after opening the Centre when the Programme had been  implemented and the first convicts had been released. The study of significance of changes of convict’s personality included two  stages and was carried out with two groups — experimental and control – and with those who had already left the penitentiary  facility. It is necessary to note that external changes and changes in behaviour of the convicts who have been trained according  to the Programme are witnessed by all the personnel at the penitentiary facility, which indirectly proves the convicts’ successful  comprehension of psychological training.

Keywords: centre of social and psychological rehabilitation and support of convicts before release,  complex psycho-correction programme.
