Other papers focused on the SPCR prisoners’ childhood circumstances and backgrounds prior to custody including education, employment and accommodation, and demonstrated how many of these factors were associated with re-offending on release from prison. This paper is important to set these findings in context as this research confirms previous studies which have shown that previous offending is the factor most strongly associated with further re-offending, when all factors are considered together. The aims of this report were to: explore the relationship between previous offending and re-offending for the SPCR cohort; validate these findings alongside published National Statistics; and, explore the relationship between self-reported re-offending from the survey and proven re-offending from Police National Computer (PNC) records.
