Résumé
The primary purpose of the study is to examine the scale’s reliability, convergent validity, and predictive validity of relevant correctional outcomes (e.g., disciplinary charges and post-release outcomes) for both Indigenous and non-Indigenous men. This research will address the following research questions: 1) What is the reliability of the SRS tool for incarcerated Indigenous and non-Indigenous men? 2) Is the SRS a valid measure of security reclassification for incarcerated Indigenous and non-Indigenous men?
