Part 1 contains\r\ndemographic information, such as age, race, marital status, number of\r\nchildren, living arrangements, employment, and education for each\r\noffender. Also included is information on the offense leading to the\r\ncurrent case, including numbers and types of charges and convictions\r\nfor both felonies and misdemeanors, recommendations and judicial\r\ndisposition for the current case, and information on the criminal\r\nhistory of the offender. Part 2 contains data from the intake interview\r\nwith the offender, such as information on the offender's family, living\r\narrangements, education, employment, past alcohol and drug use, and\r\nexpectations for the home detention program and monitoring procedures.\r\nPart 3 contains information collected in the exit interview and is\r\nsimilar in content to Part 2. Part 4 contains information on the\r\nprogram delivery (type of release from the program, violations of the\r\nprogram, results of tests for alcohol and drug use, errand time,\r\npayment, contacts with offenders, and the characteristics and results\r\nof the contacts with electronically monitored offenders). Part 5 is a\r\ncheck of criminal histories of offenders for at least one year after\r\ntheir release from the program.", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "accessURL": "https://doi.org/10.3886/ICPSR09587.v1", "title": "Electronic Monitoring of Nonviolent Convicted Felons:  An Experiment in Home Detention in Marion County, Indiana, 1986-1988"}], "identifier": "3833", "issued": "1991-10-23T00:00:00", "keyword": ["alternatives to institutionalization", "criminal histories", "criminal justice system", "electronic monitoring", "felony offenses", "house arrest", "misdemeanor offenses", "offenders", "program evaluation", "supervised liberty"], "language": ["eng"], "license": "http://www.usa.gov/publicdomain/label/1.0/", "modified": "2006-01-12T00:00:00", "programCode": ["011:060"], "publisher": {"@type": "org:Organization", "name": "National Institute of Justice", "subOrganizationOf": {"acronym": "OJP", "id": 22, "name": "Office of Justice Programs", "parentOrganization": {"acronym": "DOJ", "id": 10, "name": "Department of Justice"}, "parentOrganizationID": 10}}, "title": "Electronic Monitoring of Nonviolent Convicted Felons:  An Experiment in Home Detention in Marion County, Indiana, 1986-1988"}
