Prisons and its people are subject to digital inequalities whereby the distribution of Information Communication Technology (ICT), access, uptake and skills is restricted by strict regulations to control use. Two hundred and thirty-seven participants took part in our study on prisoners’ access to digital technology. A scale (Attitudes Towards Digital Technology in Secure Environments (ATD-ISE)) was developed to assess attitudes towards the use and implementation of digital technology in prisons. We observed there is a potential opportunity to inform and educate the public on the value of enhancing digital literacy within our prisons for the benefit of rehabilitative outcomes.
