All questions indicate whether “select one” or “select all”
The questionnaire is case-sensitive since answer options in ALLCAPS should not be read by
interviewers and answer options in lower case should be read aloud
Blind D or R should be coded with our usual D=8/98, R=7/97 unless the answer is numeric, in
which case D=-2, R=-1
All storage items should be named as SI_XX.
Storage items that contain offenses will be left blank when responses to questions used to fill
the storage item is D or R.
In cases where storage items are filled with dates and those dates are not provided (D or R) or
incomplete (MM/DD/YYYY), the storage item will be left blank and we cannot use for fills or
logic checks
In cases where storage items are filled with offenses and those offenses are not provided,
generic language will be used as fill unless the question is specified to be skipped where offense
is missing/storage item is blank.
Other specify responses should be coded 5/95. If the “other, specify” is part of an answer set
that is supposed to be read aloud then interviewers will be trained to read the list up to that
point and end with “or some other”. If “other” is chosen, they will then ask, “Please describe the
other” in order to capture the specifics.
COMP_INSTR are programming instructions and do not appear on the screen
FI_INSTR are interviewer instructions and should appear on screen
(h) in the answer list indicates a help screen option that should be made available to the
interviewer as needed
All “transcribe” instructions are programming instructions as are other italicized instructions
that do not specifically say “INTERVIEWER” before them
Any time a numeric answer entered is out of the acceptable range, show an error message to
the interviewer reminding them of the acceptable range
Once the interview is broken off, the interview is completed, i.e., respondents will not be given
the option to go back and complete the interview at another time
Similarly, the field interviewer may have to break off the interview in situations where the
respondent has inadvertently gone down the wrong path when responding to questions that
drive significant skip patterns (e.g., convicted, changes mind to unconvicted). Consider using
non-interview worksheet

Survey of Inmates in Local Jails
Consent to Participate in Research (Standard) – 1st person
Introduction
The Survey of Inmates in Local Jails (SILJ) is a research study done by the Bureau of Justice
Statistics and Abt Associates. The purpose is to learn about trends in inmate characteristics,
criminal justice practices, and physical and mental health status of inmates and detainees in the
United States.
As part of this study, we need to test our survey questions with inmates to find out if they make
sense. We are testing the questions in ten jails with a total of approximately 360 inmates
randomly chosen to take part. Your participation is voluntary, but we would like to know about
your experiences. Let me tell you about the study and you can decide if you want to take part.
Description of the Study
This interview will take about 60 minutes. I will ask about your:
education, work, and family background, including citizenship status,
current charges and prior criminal history,
prior physical and sexual abuse,
physical and mental health conditions and treatment received,
drug and alcohol use before admission to jail, and
experiences in jail and use of jail programs.
I will enter your answers into a tablet computer.
We will only use this information for research purposes. Your information will be combined
with the information from all other inmates in the study for use by other authorized researchers.
Your name will never be associated with your responses.
Confidentiality
There is a law that protects confidentiality of your answers, 34 U.S.C. § 10231. This study is also
covered by the privacy certification requirements of 28 C.F.R. § 22.23. This means that your
answers and any personally identifiable information we collect will be kept private and
confidential. I will not ask you questions if I think someone can overhear your answers. We will
not share your answers with anyone at this jail, a supervision officer, employer, or anyone else
from the community. Nothing you tell me during the interview can be used in any legal action.
All information will be kept secure and your answers will be combined with other participants in
the study for research purposes. The only exceptions to our promise of confidentiality include if
you tell me that you plan to seriously harm yourself or a specific person, plan to commit a future
crime, or have had sexual contact with another inmate or correctional staff. In these cases, I may
need to inform officials at this jail or authorities outside the jail who are responsible for
protecting jail inmates.
[[If allowed by the facility] To thank you for your time participating in the study, we will provide
you with a snack to eat before you leave this room.]
Possible Risks or Discomforts
Some of the questions are personal or ask about past behaviors that may have been illegal. These
questions may make you feel uncomfortable or upset. You can skip any question you do not
want to answer or you can stop the interview at any time. If you want to speak with a counselor
at any point during or after the interview, we will contact the appropriate person(s) to make sure
you can speak to someone right away.
Benefits
You will not receive any direct benefits for participating in this study, but the information
collected through the study may be used by policymakers to improve how jails across the nation
address different issues such as veterans in jail, women in jail, and mental health conditions
among jail inmates across the nation, as well as those who will be released. If you do not take
part, you will not lose any benefits or services that you now receive or might receive in the
future. Your participation will have no effect on your status in the criminal justice system.
Further Questions
If you have any questions about the project, you may write to the Survey of Inmates in Local
Jails at Abt Associates, 10 Fawcett Street, Cambridge, MA 02138. If you have questions about
your rights as a project participant, you can call the Institutional Review Board Administrator at

Appendix C
,
Dear ,
The Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) would like to conduct a pretest of the Survey of Inmates in Local Jails (SILJ)
at the in the spring of 2023. This pretest will evaluate the survey instrument and procedures for the
national survey, which we will conduct in 2024. The SILJ is the only national source of detailed information on the
characteristics of jail inmates, including special populations such as drug and alcohol users, mentally ill inmates,
parents of minor children, and inmates at different stages of the criminal justice process.
We would like your approval to conduct the pretest at . Your approval will involve field representatives
from the project team selecting a sample of 36 inmates and interviewing each of them using a tablet computer in a
secure and private location on-site. The interviews will occur over a three-day period. You will be asked to provide a
roster of inmates housed in your jail at the time of the data collection to support inmate selection. Staff from the
project team may be on-site to observe the interviews and to document any problems with the survey instrument or
the process.
Each interview will take approximately 60 minutes and will collect information on the inmate’s individual
characteristics, current offense, detention status, criminal history, family background, prior drug and alcohol use and
treatment, medical and mental health history and treatment, and participation in vocational programs and other
services provided to inmates while in jail. Before the interview, inmates will be read an informed consent statement
specifying that participation in the pretest is voluntary, that respondents may decline to answer any and all questions,
and that they may stop their participation at any time. The information collected will be used only to inform
revisions to the SILJ instrument and to the informed consent statement. BJS will not publish or release any of the
information collected in any statistical reports or data sets.
BJS is authorized to conduct this data collection under 34 U.S.C. § 10132. BJS will protect and maintain the
confidentiality of the personally identifiable information (PII) it collects to the fullest extent under federal law. BJS,
its employees, and its data collection agents will only use the information collected for statistical or research
purposes pursuant to 34 U.S.C. § 10134. For more information please go to:
https://bjs.ojp.gov/sites/g/files/xyckuh236/files/media/document/bjs_data_protection_guidelines.pdf.
Next week, BJS will contact you to provide additional information and seek your participation in this pretest. We
appreciate your time and continued support for BJS data collections. If you have any questions, please contact Todd
Minton, the BJS Project Manager, at Todd.Minton@usdoj.gov or (202) 598-7226.

Project Title: Survey of Inmates in Local Jails (SILJ): Design and Testing
Cooperative Agreement Number: 2015-R2-CX-K146
Grantee, Stephanie Fahy, and Abt Associates, certifies that data identifiable to a private person will
not be used or revealed, except as authorized in 28 CFR Part 22, Sections 22.21 & 22.22. Information
identifiable to a private person is defined in 28 CFR §22.2(e) as "information which either--(1) Is
labeled by name or other personal identifiers, or (2) Can, by virtue of sample size or other factors, be
reasonably interpreted as referring to a particular person."
Brief Description of Project (required by 28 CFR §22.23(b):
Abt Associates was awarded a cooperative agreement with the Bureau of Justice Statistics to re-design
the survey instrument and design the study sample for the Survey of Inmates in Local Jails (SILJ) and
to conduct a field test of the newly designed SILJ instrument.
One goal of this effort is to develop the next version of the Survey of Inmates in Local Jails, increasing
the quality of the sample and expanding the ability to analyze both subpopulations of interest,
geographic areas and trends over time. The objectives of this goal are to conduct research to develop a
new survey tool that (1) covers emerging areas and current information gaps (i.e., expanded health
issues), (2) is shorter and more efficient in its collection (3) is better able to deal with non-response
issues, and (4) can be standardized with other general population surveys for analysis. A review of
literature and feedback and advice from relevant stakeholders in the corrections field (NIC, NIJ, BJA,
and the National Sheriffs Association) will be used in the development of the tools. This process will
also: review the ability to use administrative data on such things as charge, sentence, and criminal
history to reduce the burden on the jail respondent; develop relevant questions on women’s health
issues; and, increase the ability to assess mental health and infectious disease among inmates. In order
to efficiently review the ability to use administrative data, Abt will develop and deploy an online
Survey of Jail Administrative Records (SJAR) to document currently available administrative data and
the willingness and ability of jail administrators to provide these data in support of the SILJ program.
A second goal is to develop a cross sectional sampling plan that provides adequate power to examine
subpopulations, a method for stratification of jails, and of inmates within jails by key characteristics.
In addition BJS is interested in a plan that will allow examination of state level estimates for a smaller
number of states and/or jail types to analyze changes over time in the populations housed and trends
related to local policies.
Finally, a third goal is to conduct a pretest of the newly developed survey with inmates in a sample of
jails. We propose to conduct cognitive testing prior to the pretest with a sample of nine inmates,
followed by pre-test data collection, which will include the collection of survey and administrative

data. The results of the pre-test will be used to inform recommendations for revisions to the instrument
and sample design.
Procedures to notify subjects that such data will only be used or revealed for research or
statistical purposes and that compliance with the request for information is not mandatory and
participation in the project may be terminated at any time as required by 28 CFR §22.23(b)(4)
or if notification of subjects is to be waived, pursuant to 28 CFR §22.27(c), please provide a
justification:
Abt is using three distinct data sources as part of this effort: (1) survey data from jail administrators in
the SJAR; (2) survey data from jail inmates participating in the pilot of the survey; and (3)
administrative records of jail inmates maintained by jails and BJS in the pretest, such as offense
information and criminal history information.
For data source 1 of the study, no human subject’s data will be collected other than contact information
for follow-up questions, so consent to participate in the online survey is not applicable.
For data source2 of the study, Abt researchers will obtain informed consent from jail inmates,
describing the intent of the pilot and emphasizing the voluntary nature of participation. Respondents
will be informed of the potential risks of participating, and procedures will be established to protect the
identity of those who choose to participate.
For data source 3 of the study, consent to use administrative program data is not applicable, as these
data are administrative records and are not subject to 28 CFR §22.23(b)(4). These administrative data
are collected by jails as part of their administrative records and include names and individual
identifiers (e.g., FBI numbers, SSN, etc.) as well as information potentially on their current offense and
criminal history information. Given that we will not use, or reveal individual identities during the
quantitative analysis of these data except for tracking purposes (after which identifiers will be stripped
and discarded), the use of this data “presents no more than minimal risk of harm to subjects and
involves no procedures for which written consent is normally required outside of the research context”
(28 CFR 46.117) and notification of subjects is unnecessary.
The Abt Institutional Review Board has reviewed the study to confirm the anticipated process for
notifying subjects, and will conduct a formal review after award.
Procedures developed to preserve the confidentiality of personally identifiable information, as
required by 28 CFR §22.23(b)(7):
As a research and consulting company, Abt Associates collects a variety of information for research
purposes. Abt policies include an information security policy that establishes a baseline for data
security practices, educates users and vendors regarding their obligations to protect data assets, and
provides a foundation to ensure the confidentiality, integrity and availability of client and corporate
data.
For all data sources, names will be separated from the data and/or redacted. After data collection is
completed, names will be removed and replaced with study identification numbers and qualitative

Office 617.492.7100
abtassociates.com
codes. Communication between staff members will use study ID’s to verify against other datasets or
for internal communication.
Described below are additional procedures which are designed to maintain the confidentiality and
integrity of personally identifiable information collected during the study.
Justification for the collection and/or maintenance of any data in identifiable form, if applicable:
Individual identifiers in the data will only be used for purposes of data collection (i.e., identifying, and
recruiting participants), matching data with existing administrative data, authenticating data
collections, or obtaining missing data (e.g., from completed surveys or correcting administrative data).
Procedures for data storage, as required by 28 CFR §22.23(b)(5):
Procedures for data storage to be used in this study all involve the use of password-protected access to
systems and records. Abt uses Microsoft Active Directory to manage user access to folders and to
manage accounts. Passwords must meet minimum complexity requirements, are changed regularly,
and password reuse is very limited. The project director must authorize each user's access to the project
data folders.
All data transfers for research or statistical purposes will be recorded in a log consistent with 28 CFR
22.23. All data transfers to and from Abt will utilize Abt's FTPS site (Ipswitch's MOVEit DMZ) to the
extent possible. Any transfer methods outside of an encrypted CD or the FTPS will be reviewed by
Abt's information security team. Password protected and encrypted "zip" files will be used when
electronic data is to be transferred via FTPS or encrypted CD-ROM from the originator to Abt
Associates. Transfers using Abt's FTPS site meet FIPS 140-2 encryption standards and are also stored
encrypted on the site. User access is linked to Active Directory and each user must also be authorized
to gain access to the FTPS site.
Encrypted CDs received from local jails will be kept in a locked file cabinet at Abt and will only be
accessible to key project staff. If a CD is provided unencrypted or encrypted with non-compliant (FIPS
140-2) encryption, the data will be re-encrypted and the original CD will be destroyed. Abt will request
the organization modify their procedures to be compliant with applicable laws.
All Abt servers, workstations, and notebook computers are protected from viruses, spyware, and
worms. The devices are continuously updated with the latest definition file and scanned regularly from
a central server. Similar to antivirus services, patching is centrally managed and patches are pushed to
end users per the company's patching process.
Paper records containing personally identifiable information will not be transported; electronic
versions (PDFs) will be sent electronically via FTPS. Any printed data with personally identifiable
information will be will be stored in locked cabinets and shredded once no longer needed,
Physically, Abt's offices require a badge and keycard for entry. The servers are located in an onpremise server room that required keycard access which is limited to select IT staff (Abt) or in a secure
TIER 4 datacenter (Abt SRBI).
All Abt laptops are encrypted with a FIPS 140-2 compliant encryption product.
