Calling all Correctional Officers

for an opportunity to share perspectives.

My name is Michelle Malters, and I am a fourth-year doctoral candidate at Adler University studying psychology. I am working on my dissertation titled: Correctional Officers and Their Experiences with Gay Male Inmates. While there are no direct benefits to you, it is hoped that by examining your current perceptions and your experience, a better understanding can be developed to about how correctional officers interact with gay male inmates. On the job experience provides a valuable dimension to research as you are the first responders that interact with a challenging population in a stressful environment on a daily basis. Your insights, attitudes, and observations will contribute to my understanding of challenges and how perceptions of LGBTQ inmates influence behavior.
