Abstract :
Psychological well-being and mental health of
inmates are investigated by international organization,
committees and researchers. One of the main factors that
influence their quality of life, daily mood and well-being
is interpersonal relationship. Numerous empirical data

attitudes toward the prisoners. An attitude can be defined
as an evaluation of a stimulus as reflected in our
cognitive, emotional and behavioral responses to the
problem [1]. Prison officers are responsible for the safety
and security of the prison facility, for supporting offender
rehabilitation efforts and for managing organizational
demands [2]. Despite their importance to the running of
the prison system, the health and wellbeing of prison
officers remains poor.
