AB  - The subjective effects of prison institutions have been clearly described by Goffman
as common aspects of what this author called total institutions, mainly from the
practices and discourses that characterize them. Also Foucault result, in this sense, an
obligatory reference for this analysis. However, since the social and human sciences
in general, and from psychology in particular, there were no significant contributions
regarding the effects of prison routine on the mental health of inmates. In this way,
the extensive production generated by the criticism of asylums did not move to this
other institutional space, partially similar to the previous one.
