- Abstract
Multiple studies have indicated that correctional programs with stress management sections have significant influences on recidivism[1, 2], yet to the best of the author's knowledge, few studies identified stress as a crucial element within the transitions of the criminals —— most viewed the correlations between the social factors (i.e. employment, community supports, close relationships, etc.) and recidivism while barely any study highlighted stress, which comes after these social factors but before reoffending, as the subject. By adopting a different perspective, the author aims to emphasize the significance of stress in reduction of recidivism. The author sorts past articles to look into the potential stresses of released prisoners specifically, which are mostly bounded to social factors. As a literature review, this article select updated and widely-accepted literatures to identify what peole have known about this cross-sectional topic, as well as the research gap within it, hoping to guide future studies so that they can better support correctional programs and counseling to ex-prisoners.
