The present study aimed to find out psychosocial determinants of recidivism in female convicts. Previous literature on recidivism suggested several psychosocial factors behind recidivism e.g. poverty, low self-esteem, personality, and familial factors (Bird, Hussain, & Joyce, 2004). However, the present study used a qualitative approach to find out psychosocial determinants of recidivism, specifically guided by the phenomenological approach. The data was collected from two women's prisons. Six (N=06) semi-structured in-depth interviews were conducted. The findings revealed two major themes; psychological factors (personality and social exclusion) and social factors (social demographic factors, familial factors, societal constituents, and judicial system) behind recidivism. This study is helpful for determining the underlying factors behind criminal acts and recidivism and it will help the prison department to consider these psychosocial determinants of recidivism and reentry to prisons and will also help in the psychological assessment of prisoners at their first entry to prison.

“…With the education in the prison is expected to minimize prisoners back to the prison (Bozick, Steele, Davis, & Turner, 2018;Esperian, 2010;Silvestri & Wdizioni, 2013). MacDonald, (2018), Novian et al, (2018), and Urombo & Kasimba, (2018) stated the main factor resulting in the return of prisoners to the prison is the maximum fulfillment of prisoners ' rights and the lack of effective coaching function especially in terms of Education. In fact, according to Meissner & Jourdan, (2017) well-organized education and training in prison, can suppress the incidence of residivisme, build work experience, reduce the risk of mental illness, improve prison safety, provide financial income for prisoners who are able to develop skills from the program that follow, and have a greater chance to get the job after completing the detention period (Esperian,2010;Formon, Schmidt, & Henderson, 2017).…”
