A special attention was paid to the issues of convict’s personal change under the conditions of institutional confinement. The authors make accurate conclusions regarding the impossibility of depicting convicts’ profiles without focusing on their moral and ethical as well as psychological peculiarities. In recent years, the state penal policy has undergone significant changes. In this regard, the reform of the penitentiary system, improvement and optimization of the penal law and the penal system required greater attention to the individual characteristics of the convicted to imprisonment.

The current legislation is determined that the funds are used, and the direction, taking into account personal characteristics and features of the behavior of prisoners.
