In recent years, in our country, in penitentiary
institutions, all conditions have been created to solve
the problems successfully connected with correction
of morals of convicts in penitentiary institutions in our
country. One of these conditions is the regime. Along
with performing other tasks, it is designed to instill
discipline among convicts. Modern society places
increasingly high demands on individuals involved in
the education of convicts. The author examines
particular issues of the formation of acmeological
orientation of persons involved in the education of
convicts. A specialist in the field of education of
convicts must be a professional in a broader and more
comprehensive field of this work and have an
acmeological professional orientation.
Discipline in modern society is necessary not only so
that a person does not violate the rules of society and
respects the laws, but also in order to cultivate in a
person the qualities necessary for society, to force him
to develop in a direction that is useful and necessary
for society. «Discipline distinguishes society from
anarchy; the discipline that determines freedom» [1,
p.15]. Modern society seeks from its members not
mechanical, but conscious compliance with laws, rules,
and duties. During the period of reforms, the role of
moral principles in people’s lives increases,
administrative regulation of relations between
members of society is significantly reduced, and the
importance of conscious self-discipline increases. In
psychological and acmeological studies, the abilities of
the object of labor, the state of society and the
conditions of education are indicated as significant
acmeological conditions for the self-realization of an
individual. Discipline, being a moral category, should
cultivate the best character traits in people.
Indiscipline in our society is unacceptable. Lack of
discipline contributes to the commission of crime. That
is why the correction of a convicted person must begin
with instilling in him conscious discipline and self-
discipline. It is necessary to build on instilling conscious
discipline
and
self-discipline
among
convicts
disciplinary practice. Therefore, before demanding
that a convicted person fulfill certain requirements of
the regime and internal rules, it is necessary to clearly
and patiently explain to him the meaning and
expediency of these requirements, their role and
significance for the education of those positive traits
that will help him get rid of vices, helping those who
committed a crime. The meaning of these
requirements is explained to convicts in classes, during
individual and group conversations.
All methods of explaining to convicts the meaning of
the requirements of the regime and internal rules will
be most effective if they are applied indirectly, through
the active positive part of the convicts, through
disciplinary action on violators. This active (positive
part) is constantly replenished by persons who
consciously strive for correction, actively helping the
administration not only maintain the established order
and discipline in the correctional institution, but also,
to a certain extent, promoting this order and discipline
among other convicts. In practical work, this can be
achieved by training convicts according to a specially
developed program, which included the following
topics: «Goals and objectives of educational work»,
«Regime in a correctional institution. Its role and
significance for the education of discipline», «The
concept of discipline in society». Classes on these
topics can be attended by all convicts.
Constant individual work with convicts and classes
conducted with him not only contributed to his
education in the direction necessary for the
administration, but also increased his sense of
responsibility for fulfilling his assigned duties. The
activities of employees of the penal system have a
clearly expressed focus on interaction with people,
with convicts in particular. Therefore, regardless of

their position, all employees, in addition to general
professional knowledge, must also have psychological
training [2].
Indirect impact must be supported by a systematic
explanation of the harm of a particular crime,
illustrating this with specific examples available in a
given correctional institution. It is very important to
create a public opinion of intolerance around the
person who committed the crime.
For example this is well facilitated by theme evenings.
At the evening held in one of the execution institutions
on the topic «Crimes resulting from the loss of human
dignity and national pride», the depth of the crimes
resulting from this was clearly shown. This evening
showed the vileness of such a crime. An evening was
held at the penitentiary institution on the topic «Crimes
born of sycophancy and loss of a sense of human
dignity and national pride». A thematic evening held in
another penitentiary institution on the topic
«Offenders are on trial» contributed to the creation of
intolerance among the collective around malicious
violators of the regime and discipline.
It is necessary to work to expose the essence of theft,
hooliganism, violence and other crimes. For this
purpose, classes, visual propaganda, local radio
broadcasting, reader conferences, and individual work
were used.
The institution should set before itself the only
important goal
–
to make the convict repent of the
crime he committed, to form intolerance towards
crimes. It is very important that the convicted person
admits that he was punished fairly. Then he will have a
natural desire to atone for his guilt, and this will
contribute to the development of discipline.
The existing regime in correctional institutions
establishes conditions that encourage the desire of
convicts to maintain discipline. Indeed, the incentive
for this is the benefits that can be applied after the
convicted person has served a certain part of the
sentence.
The opportunity to receive these benefits should be
widely used for the education of convicts discipline and
self-discipline. The desire of the convicted person to be
released should be used especially widely in this case.
This desire must be associated with his life perspective,
however, in many cases, the «stressful nature of the
work, the remoteness of most penal institutions from
major economic and cultural centers» negatively
affects the quality of educational work [3].
Internal order plays a major role in instilling discipline
among convicts. Where the style of an individual
approach is skillfully selected and the convict is
educated, the fight against discipline violators is
successfully carried out and violations are prevented.
Perhaps, in all institutions, this established procedure
may not always produce the desired effect, this issue is
currently being studied in depth. But still, practice
shows that it has a lot of positive aspects. For example,
through such an established procedure, the
conscientious conscientious attitude of the prisoner to
work is determined in reality. In institutions, it is
necessary to achieve such a situation that any offense
committed by a prisoner is discussed among his team.
In order to mobilize the establishment of internal
order for the successful implementation of the tasks
facing them, meetings of other groups are widely
practiced in the colony. At these meetings, convicts are
told about how they are fighting offenders.
The discipline of convicts is promoted by their
aesthetic education. This is achieved through amateur
art activities, various quizzes, literary evenings, sports,
and libraries. We must strive to instill in the convict

good taste, the need for literature, knowledge about
sports, to instill in him a sense of beauty, to teach him
to rationally use his leisure time not only in a
correctional facility, but also after releasing from
prison.
An important means of instilling discipline among
convicts is well-organized work. It plays a huge role in
shaping the moral character of the convicted person.
It is in work that the convict feels himself as a person
occupying a certain place in life and in society. Work
develops in him such qualities as perseverance,
curiosity, and the ability to achieve his goal. Instilling
discipline in convicts presupposes the need for an
individual approach to them, taking into account the
characteristics of each convict, knowledge of his
character, development, abilities, habits, and the
nature of the crime committed. For this work we need
educators - professionals. Their professional activity is
objectively complex, therefore it is difficult to master
and requires a long period of theoretical and practical
training [4].
In a correctional facility, you cannot ignore any, even
minor, deviation from the rules in the behavior of the
convict. Of course, here, the goal should be to prevent
future offenses caused by such deviations, and the
behavior of the educator should be focused, first of all,
on influencing the mind of the prisoner and causing in
him a conscious desire to eliminate the vices that lead
to violation of the regime and the established order.
Experience shows that disciplinary practice plays a
significant role in instilling discipline among convicts.
The head must «set an example of honesty, impartiality
and fairness through his personal behavior» [5].
It is necessary to take into account that convicts do not
react equally to the administrative measures applied to
them. Therefore, both punishment and reward must
be given taking into account the personality of the
convicted person.
There are still convicts in penitentiary institutions who
try to exert a corrupting influence on others and
maliciously violate the regime. Coercive measures and
penalties must be applied to such convicts. However,
care must be taken to ensure that these penalties do
not replace educational work. Whoever, instead of
everyday, painstaking educational work, relies on
punishment cannot count on success.
It is important to clarify the circumstances that caused
the offense committed when determining the
imposition of disciplinary punishment. When applying
disciplinary sanctions or rewards, the basic principle is
an individual approach. For this reason, in the process
of making a decision on determining the type of
disciplinary sanction, one should take into account the
severity of the offense, the circumstances of its
commission, the level of guilt of the convicted person,
his age, whether the offense was committed
accidentally or intentionally, for the first time or
repeatedly. An individual approach, taking into
account all specific circumstances contribute to the
fact that disciplinary action acquires educational
significance both for the «punished» and for other
convicts.
It is necessary to choose a punishment that has the
greatest educational impact on the convicted person.
Meanwhile, penalties such as deprivation of a visit from
a convicted person who has no relatives or deprivation
of the right to use a store for a convicted person who
does not have money in his personal account are
sometimes applied.
At the same time, it is necessary to avoid the use of
punishments such as depriving a prisoner without
relatives of the right to make an appointment,

depriving a prisoner who does not have money in his
personal account of the right to shop at a store, which
is sometimes found.
CONCLUSIONS
Many correctional facility managers are not flexible
enough in their disciplinary practices. They often resort
to punitive measures such as placing the offending
prisoner in a disciplinary cell, often without sufficient
justification. The practice of placing the disciplinary
unit in penal isolation for a minor violation often leads
to the appearance of justified anger in the prisoner and
a desire to resist the administration. For the correct
application of disciplinary practice, it is important to
achieve uniformity in the demands placed on prisoners
by the team of employees with educational influence,
as well as the proportionate use of persuasive and
coercive tools. It is necessary to apply equal
requirements to all prisoners, and it should not be
allowed to provide any privileges and benefits to some
prisoners. Instilling discipline in convicts and applying
preventive disciplinary measures to them, it is
necessary not only to constantly analyze the reasons
and conditions that contributed to the commission of
violations by convicts, but also the correctness of
applying this or that punishment to them. In a
correctional institution, the results of disciplinary
practice should be summed up, and it should be
discussed how correctly the educational worker acted
in a particular case. Sometimes, the staff who are
supposed to have an educational influence, ignore the
issue of gaining the trust and acquittal of prisoners,
which experts say is one of the most important issues
[6].
Thus, when carrying out preventive measures aimed at
preventing conflicts and offenses between prisoners,
should be considered into account the totality of the
general interrelated objective and subjective factors
(state of the regime, operational situation, state of
educational affairs, material supply) characterizing the
penal stitution and the socio-psychological processes
(system of formal and informal interaction, nature of
intragroup and intergroup relations, leadership)
occurring in the microenvironment.
