Lifetime Prevalence of Incarceration Experience, 2012, Among US Adults (a) Living in households only, (b) Including Persons Incarcerated, Single-Day Count, and (c) Including Persons Ever Incarcerated in 2012, Year-Long Count Source. NORC General Social Survey (GSS), Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS), and the Current Population Survey Note. LTHS = Less than high school educational attainment. The population estimates include persons living in households alone and combined estimates for persons living in households and those incarcerated in 2012. The 95% confidence intervals are shown for GSS household estimates only; combined household/incarceration estimates are supplemented with BJS enumerations. In panel b, GSS household incarceration estimates are supplemented by BJS enumerations of the number of persons incarcerated on a single day in 2012. These figures likely underestimate the lifetime prevalence of incarceration. In panel c, GSS household incarceration estimates are supplemented by BJS enumerations of the number of unique persons ever incarcerated in 2012 to reflect that persons recently released from correctional facilities may not have established a stable household prone to be targeted for GSS sampling. aRounded approximations for US adult population based on American Community Survey (2012) estimates and provide rough approximations for the base population count of each proportion: all women and men = 240 000 000; all men = 114 000 000; All Black men = 13 000 000; Black men LTHS all ages = 3 000 000; and Black men LTHS born 1965–1975 = 500 000.
