It is difficult to comment on what the prison experience is like. However there are many factors that can impact the way in which they experience incarceration including age, race, gender etc.

I think that offenders who are in prison share the same kind of experiences on some level. However, a prisoner's gender, sexual orientation and cultural background are all factors which impact the way they are treated and experience prison.

Prison experiences vary from person to person. How one person experiences prison is not necessarily how someone else will experience it. The factors that influence how someone experiences prison include, the supports they have on the outside. If they experience solitary confinement. The supports they have on the inside. If they suffer from mental illness or drug addictions. Whether they are from a different race and a variety of other factors.

Prison experiences vary form individual to individual the common experience that we could touch base on would be what should be the direct aim of prisons to rehabilitate individuals. However its often found that this key factor is not met because of factors including age, mental illness, ingrained systemic racism and gender dynamics. Gender dynamics often does not enable prisons to provide fair liveable circumstance to women as found in a recent report almost 40% prisons found that the care takers of prisoners did not have the required facilities needed to support those incarcerated.

Each individual has a completely difference experience of incarceration, a myriad of factors would impact an individuals experience. Personal characteristics of an individual, such as their personality and beliefs, as well as their race, upbringing, social class and many more factors. Each individual will respond differently and report individual experiences of the prison system, particularly across different countries and even states.

People who have never been to prison cannot speak of a common experience in prison because they have not experienced it and therefore wouldn't be an accurate representation of an experience in prison. Many factors such as mental illness, age, gender, crime you have committed and how long the sentence is will shape a prison expereince.

for starters, someone may be in prison on remand or sentenced, different types of crime in different types of prisons. individuals are a diverse group with may intersections that may affect their experience. there is no such thing as a common prison experience however prisons worldwide have similarities, particularly if one is just referencing australian prison experience there are some 'common' themes of the prison experience in a sense

Prison experiences will obviously differ from person to person. As everyone thinks in entirely different ways and no 2 prisons are exactly the same. Some ways that can shape a persons experience could include their mental health, their background, whether their family have a prison background. These are only a couple examples.

I think people who haven't been to prison cannot and should not comment on prison experiences. Despite there being some similarities between prisons not all are the same and not everyone experiences the same experiences.

There are many elements that shape individual prison experiment. This may include the crime committed, their age, gender, sexual orientation, ethnicity, mental stability, family relationships and social interactions. These common factors can alter how an individual can be treated or seen by government officials, other inmates and even their own family and friends. There are also structural factors to consider, this can include the structure of the organisation and the physical structure of the prison- why it was the way it was built. Combining person factors and structural elements can alter how each individuals experiences incarnation but their individuality is just a small fraction of the whole experience.

There are most certainly similarities between people's prison experiences as most prisons would have relatively similar processes. Despite this, every individual would have a different experience in prison as people are widely diverse. Factors such as age, religion, race, and the crime that they committed would have an effect on aspects of their prison stay and their feelings about it. Whether they received support for rehabilitation, and visitation from family and friends would likely also have an impact.

Experiences are likely to differ from country to country and from prison to prison. Factors such as the structure of the prison, the guards, the other inmates and how the prison is run probably change the prison experience.

I think that there are similarities people will share in the prison experience such as missing out on family life, but there are other experiences that not everyone will face, such as bullying and mistreatment by prison staff. Prison is seen by some as a positive experience also, especially for those who suffered harm (physical or mental) on the outside but now do not on the inside.
