Özet:

The article draws attention to the specificity of forms of spending time by prisoners in modern prisons. The authors conducted an analysis of the ways of spending free time in a selected prison facility. In particular, attention was paid to those forms of activity that foster broadly defined personal development and contribute to the fact that a  stay in prison is lost time. Taking into account the opinions of the convicts on the consequences of various forms of spending time, reference was made to their needs related to maintaining relationships within the structure of the self – the world, necessary for the proper psychophysiological functioning of the personality. Key words: prison, lost time, time positively used, forms of activity of convicts, penitentiary reality.
