矯正工作是法務行政重要的一環，其任務不僅對收容人施以消極的隔離監禁， 更重要的是利用在監執行期間，積極對收容人進行矯正及教化，使渠等改過向善， 重新復歸社會。爰此，本研究針對矯正機關受刑人進行調查，期能以實證研究，瞭 解受刑人的在監適應。 本研究採用文獻探討及量化統計問卷調查方式，以2013年7月31日在監受 刑人為母群體，依機關屬性、受刑人數比例、性別和處遇情形等，選定問卷調查機 關與抽取之施測人數計2,304人，經實際施測後，計完成有效樣本共2,238人。另 使用SPSS統計軟體，採用次數分配、獨立樣本t檢定、皮爾遜積差相關及迴歸分 析等統計考驗比較。 研究結果發現受刑人個人特性、犯罪與執行經驗、矯正處遇經驗、壓力與支持 等變項影響受刑人之在監適應。個人特性、犯罪與執行經驗和矯正處遇經驗、執行 期間的監禁壓力和家庭支持有關；又矯正處遇經驗、壓力與支持彼此存在關聯性， 且會影響受刑人執行的心理、行為適應。此外，人際壓力感越高、環境壓力感越高、 藥物依賴程度越高、越無法認同或配合戒護管理、工作穩定性越低、女性、非毒品 犯、刑期越長、累進處遇級別越低、初犯年齡越低、教育程度越高的受刑人，其憂 鬱傾向將越高。又入監執行期間越長、越無法認同或配合戒護管理、初犯年齡越低、 人際壓力感越高、非毒品犯、累進處遇級別越高、曾使用藥物、末婚的受刑人，其 在監違規行為將越多。最後，根據相關研究結果，提出建議供實務機關作為政策推 動之參考。
