摘要

性侵害犯罪人近年均是社會關注的焦點，但社會卻忽略性犯罪受刑人在監所中的生活狀況及與其他類型受刑人互動情形，過去文獻中指出性犯罪受刑人可能成為一個獄中潛在被害的特定群體，恐對於性犯罪受刑人在監所之生活適應造成影響，使得矯治效果不佳，而大幅提升出監後之再犯的可能性，因此研究者認為對於性犯罪受刑人在監所之現況了解有其必要性。

本研究將犯罪類型區分成性犯罪及非性犯罪受刑人兩組，並以基本特性配對之方式選取出與性犯罪受刑人特性相同之非性犯罪受刑人樣本，共計116名，檢視性犯罪受刑人在監所中之生活適應問題，且認為生活適應問題會受到被害恐懼以及被害經驗之影響，而視兩者為中介變項。

研究結果發現，相較於一般受刑人，性犯罪受刑人被害恐懼明顯較高，但對於實際上在監所內被害之經驗有無則沒有影響，且並不會導致在監所生活環境中較可能患有身心疾病或是產生違規行為之影響，但對於食衣住行生活的不滿意程度有顯著較低的情形。生活適應問題之有無或良窳程度均不受被害恐懼及被害經驗之中介而影響。

本研究認為性犯罪受刑人與其他類型受刑人生活適應問題無異的關鍵在於性犯罪受刑人所實施之強制治療方案，將性犯罪受刑人集中，在入監案由均同樣為性犯罪受刑人的環境下，使得歧視及欺凌的行為大幅減少，因而明顯提升性侵害受刑人對於生活的滿意程度，減少適應不良之問題。

Sex crime has become one of the important social issues in the modern societies. Most of the studies related to sex offenders focused on the developmental factors or treatment programs, and only few studies discussed the adjustment issues of sex offenders in prisons. Previous research stated that the sexual offenders might become the potential victims of prison violence, and could cause the adjustment problems during incarceration.
Among the 1,505 responded offenders, 58 sexual offenders were included in the analyses. Based on the demographic characteristics (age, marital status, crime history, sentence length, and served time) of each sex offender, 58 non-sexual offenders were selected as compare group examined the adjustment issues between two offender groups. Also, fear of crime and victim experience were employed as mediators between types of offenders and adjustment to prison.
The results indicated that the sexual offenders had higher fear of crime than non-sexual offenders, but there was no difference between sexual and non-sexual offenders on their victimization during incarceration. This study also found that sexual offenders did not differ from non-sexual offenders in role violations and complaints of health issues in prison. However, sexual offenders had lower life dissatisfaction than non-sexual offenders. This study showed the relationships between the types of crime and adjustment problems were not mediated by the fear of crime or victim experience .
The results, which sexual offenders did not differ from non-sexual offenders in most prison adjustment variables, could be attributed to the compulsory treatment program and special wards for sexual offenders. Because of this, the discrimination against sexual offenders and bullying behavior were decreased dramatically.
