The aim of this study was to determine the intensity of the occurrence of stress-prone personality traits (type D) and the strategies of coping with stress in a group of people staying in Polish penitentiary institutions. This study was conducted in two penitentiary units in Lesser Poland Voivodeship. Participants consisted of 152 prisoners. In this cross-sectional study, two standardized research tools-Mini-COPE Inventory for Measurement Coping with Stress and the Type-D Scale (DS14)-were used. The presence of a stress-prone personality (type D) among persons serving a prison sentence concerned 42.11% of the respondents and did not correlate with their sex and age. The convicted persons were more often guided by 'negative affectivity' than by 'social inhibition'. People staying in penitentiary units most often used the strategy of 'active coping' and 'planning'. Types of coping strategies used by the respondents depended on their sex and the presence of type D personal characteristics. Increasing people's social awareness of the issues of stress experienced by prisoners can contribute to reducing the phenomenon of the marginalization and stigmatization of incarcerated people.
本研究旨在确定处于波兰监狱环境中的人群中易患压力的人格特质（D 型）的发生强度以及应对压力的策略。本研究在小波兰省的两个监狱单位进行。参与者包括 152 名囚犯。在这项横断面研究中，使用了两种标准化研究工具——用于测量应对压力的 Mini-COPE 清单和 D 型量表（DS14）。易患压力的人格（D 型）在服刑人员中的存在比例为 42.11%，与他们的性别和年龄无关。被定罪的人比“社会抑制”更多地受到“消极情感”的影响。在监狱服刑的人最常使用“积极应对”和“计划”的策略。受访者使用的应对策略类型取决于他们的性别和 D 型人格特征的存在。提高人们对囚犯所经历的压力问题的社会认识，可以有助于减少囚犯被边缘化和污名化的现象。
