Maximum security prisons usually have two types of segregation: administrative segregation and ___________ .

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The first type of segregation mentioned in the question is administrative segregation, which refers to separating prisoners from the rest of the population for various reasons (e.g. safety concerns, pending investigation, etc.). The second type of segregation is not explicitly stated but can be inferred from the other answer choices. Controlled general population (A) refers to a group of prisoners who are allowed more privileges and freedoms than those in administrative segregation, which is not what is being asked for. Cellblock restriction (B) and limited movement (D) both refer to limits on prisoners' physical movement within the prison, but do not necessarily involve complete separation from other prisoners. Isolation (C), on the other hand, refers to complete separation and is the best choice to complete the sentence.
