Criminology: Scientific study of criminal behavior; examining the causes, nature, and management of crime on both the individual and society at large.
Probation: Term that describes supervision of an offender, instead of that offender serving jail time. A probation officer describes the terms that the offender must abide by to be supervised out of prison.
Parole: Early release of a prisoner from jail, who are expected to abide by specific conditions. If they break those conditions while on parole, they may be returned to jail to finish their sentence.
Rehabilitation: The means through which an offender is re-educated and re-trained to ensure that they do not return to a life of crime once released from jail.
Recidivism: The act of an offender repeating the same type of crime after they have already been convicted of that crime and released from jail, or who commit the same type of crime after undergoing rehabilitation.
Incarceration: A term that describes imprisonment. A person who is incarcerated has been imprisoned in jail.
Deterrence: The concept of trying to deter, or prevent, crimes from happening in the first place. The threat of jail, for example, acts as a means of deterring crime.
