Journal Title: Resocjalizacja Polska - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 13

Abstract

The article concern the issue of the ingratiation of convicted people. To the research of susceptibility of sentenced people towards ingratiation the author used the questionnaire prepared by himself. The main issue of research was to present the tendency of introduced oneself in the excessively favorable manner and the state of mind (mood) of the convict who was examined. Than was confronted the result of declaration of the convicted submitted in the questionnaire with his real behavior and the influence of the (so called) “stray words”. In order to verify the formulated hypothesis was adopted the method of diagnostic survey and statistical and comparative analysis. The factor analysis showed that the ingratiation behavior is complicated, complex and multidimensionality. In the tendency of the ingratiation should be distinguish the main three issues: the increase of the value of oneself and the partner, conformity and, manipulation of own image. It appeared that the prisoners served a sentence of imprisonment for the first time are more likely to use conformity than again convicted imprisonment ones. In terms of the increase of the value of oneself and the partner and the own image manipulation, there were no significant difference between those prisoners who are staying for the first time and again in prison isolation.
