Introduction:
This study shows the results obtained from evaluating the main psychosocial stressors perceived in the process of social reintegration and their relation to a remaining sentence time in prison.
Material And Methods:
A questionnaire based on an ad hoc design was administered, using a Likert scale, with a total of 383 inmates serving sentences in southeast Spain.
Results:
Findings show that inmates with a remaining sentence period of more than one year, like those who had served more than a year of their sentence, showed greater concern about possible economic difficulties.
Conclusions:
The psychosocial stressors studied might provide relevant information to facilitate the process of social reintegration after the completion of a prison sentence.
