Psychological prevention was aimed at preventing negative phenomena among convicts (forecasting possible socio-psychological problems that arise in places of detention, creating a favorable psychological climate for correcting convicts, preventing conflict situations). Psychological correction of the personality of convicted former law enforcement officers was carried out taking into account the specifics of a specialized correctional institution and its regime requirements. Psychological correction was aimed at reducing criticality to the opinions of others, reducing harshness in behavior with other convicts, and increasing the level of empathy towards other people. Within the framework of psychological education, the activities were aimed at forming positive attitudes among convicts. The main forms of psychological education were lectures and seminars on corruption, its consequences for society and the economy, discussion of the legal aspects of corruption crimes; the use of information booklets; educational stands.
