Popis: Punishment in the penal system contributes to the presence of deprivation which in turn reduces the effects of correction and rehabilitation work and further complicates the reintegration process. The subject of this research is the deprivation of freedom of those sentenced to time in prison. The aim of the research was to analyze the relation between criminal-penal characteristics and the intensity of deprivation of freedom itself. The research included 307 convicts from Pančevo District Prison, Padinska Skela Detention and Rehabilitation Facility, and Sremska Mitrovica Detention and Rehabilitation Facility. These institutions represent prisons of open, semi-open and closed type. The intensity of the deprivation of freedom was determined by Deprivation of Freedom Scale. The reliability of this scale proved to be at a high level (α=0.93). Data obtained in this research indicate that the deprivation of freedom was present with almost all the convicts and that the prison type, recidivism and treatment group inclusion all influenced the intensity of deprivation of freedom, while the length of the sentence and time spent in prison were not statistically significantly related to the intensity of deprivation of freedom.
