The average Texas inmate could afford a five-minute phone call every three months, but this is just one example of very limited interactions (Worely et al ., 2010). The prison population and ultimately society suffer the negative consequences of the lack of contact or freedom in prison. Other concerns include the impact of elected isolation, inappropriate relationships and snitching. It is hypothesized that limited amenities, lack of quality relationships, and the institutionalization effect create psychological problems for those who must re-enter society. Allowing a certain level of pleasure and outside contact may be enough to encourage inmates to refrain from joining prison groups or disrupting prison facilities. Other improvements may range from allowing tobacco use to increasing contact with outside contacts. If inmates are unable to enjoy simple pleasures and freedoms while incarcerated, it is unrealistic to expect them to maintain a civil attitude while incarcerated or once released. Additional Readings The two additional readings used the same data set from the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, which had high levels of superfluous relationships between inmates and staff (Worley et al., 2003; Worley et al., 2010) . The research initially contacted 508 prisoners who had committed boundary violations between 1995 and 1998, but there were only 82 positive responses (Worley et al., 2003; Worley et al., 2010). Finally, 32 inmates were selected to participate in an unstructured interview including 11 general questions about their relationships (Worley et al., 2003; Worley et al., 2010).
