| Descripción: | The article presents the contributions of criminological clinical studies on personality as a valuable instrument for criminological science, which allows determining the causes and factors of antisocial behavior. The methodology used is a documentary analysis to understand and dispel these studies' negative stigma since their misunderstanding has generated legislative reforms that directly affect the Mexican Penitentiary System's objective: social reintegration. The evolution of this criminological method is studied to discern the need to analyze and understand the subject. Besides, they provide tools reintegrate people deprived of liberty into social life positively and productively, without violating human rights; instead, the meaning of the penitentiary system is to dignify the treatment of people deprived of liberty, safeguarding their human rights and keeping in mind that the ultimate goal is reintegration. The paper emphasizes the need for these personality studies on people deprived of liberty since, thanks to them, individualized support can be provided in the process of social reintegration to avoid recidivism in the same causes that generate antisocial behavior. |
