It aimed to provide up-to-date baseline information about the prevalence of psychiatric problems among male and female remand and sentenced prisoners in order to inform policy decisions about services. Wherever possible, the survey utilised similar assessment instruments to those used in earlier surveys to allow comparison with corresponding data from the OPCS/ONS surveys of individuals resident in private household, institutions catering for people with mental health problems, and homeless people (see SNs 3560, 3585 and 3642 respectively). In addition the survey aimed to examine the varying use of services and the receipt of care in relation to mental disorder and to establish key, current and lifetime factors which may be associated with mental disorders of prisoners.<br></h5><h3>Main Topics:</h3><h5> The dataset contains the data from interviews with 3,142 prisoners aged 16 to 64 years from all prisons in England and Wales. These interviews included assessments of neurosis, psychosis, personality disorder, alcohol and drug dependence, deliberate self-harm, post-traumatic stress and intellectual functioning. In addition they included information on use of services before and in prison, key life events, social and economic functioning and a range of socio-demographic information. Separate samples of male remand, male sentenced, and female prisoners were selected. Information was also collected from prison records (the Local Inmates Directory System - LIDS) and medical records if permission was granted by the respondent. A sub-sample of 505 respondents also undertook a second clinical interview, and these data are included in their records on the SPSS file.<br> <br> Standard Measures<br> Personality disorder (clinical interview): Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV (SCID-II).<br> Psychotic disorder (clinical interview): Schedules for Clinical Assessment in Neuropsychiatry (SCAN) (version 1.0).<br> Neurotic disorder (lay interview): Clinical Interview Schedule - Revised (CIS-R).<br> Self-harm (lay interview): suicide attempts and ideation: five questions (based on the work of Paykel et al).<br> Alcohol misuse (lay interview): Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test (AUDIT).<br> Drug dependence (lay interview): five questions taken from the ECA study and used in other OPCS (ONS) psychiatric morbidity surveys.<br> Intellectual functioning (lay interview): QUICK test.</h5> <h3>Coverage: </h3><h5> <br><i class='myclass'>Dates of Fieldwork: </i> October 1997 - December 1997 <br><i class='myclass'>Country: </i> England and Wales <br><i class='myclass'>Spatial Units: </i> No information recorded <br><i class='myclass'>Observation Units: </i> Individuals <br><i class='myclass'>Kind of Data: </i> Textual data; Numeric data; Individual (micro) level </h5> <h3>Universe Sampled: </h3><h5> <i class='myclass'>Location of Units of Observation:</i> National <br><i class='myclass'>Population:</i> Prisoners aged 16 to 64 years in all prisons in England and Wales during October to December 1997 </h5> <h3>Methodology: </h3><h5> <i class='myclass'>Time Dimensions: </i> Cross-sectional (one-time) study <br><i class='myclass'>Sampling Procedures: </i> One-stage stratified or systematic random sample<br> separate samples for male remand, male sentenced and female prisoners; The second stage (clinical) interview sample was a systematic 1 in 5 sub-sample of those selected for initial interview. <br><i class='myclass'>Number of Units:</i> Weighting factors: initial interviews - sentwt, 2nd stage interviews - fusentwt.
