"'You're Going to Make a Hell of a Corrections Man Someday': Work Experiences of Female Wardens and Superintendents" (by Karen A. Altendorf): Review 2

Vote: 2: Publish with minor changes

I think it would be great to see a simple overview (just a few sentences) of demographic data in the first paragraph on the number of women, in general, working in federal and state corrections as well as the number of female wardens/superintendents out of the total serving. It would give the reader a sense of the scope of women serving in this field.

• Typo in the first paragraph of the research design section…managing should be manage.

• I think the second sentence in the next paragraph that starts with the quote “Non-standardized…in their own terms” could be omitted from the paper.

• Likewise, the first paragraph in the data analysis section could be omitted.

• Should the quotes in the section be in quotation marks?
