Beskid, Jennifer A.; Verrecchia, P. J.
- Abstract
The Positive and Negative Affect Scale (PANAS) was administered to two classes of recruits at the Maryland Correctional Entrance-Level Training Program (CELTP) to examine how recruits' affect changed from the onset of the entrance-level correctional academy through completion of the academy. The results of the study indicated changes in both positive and negative affect in half of the measured fields, with an increase in more positive affects than negative.
