本研究利用脆弱家庭和儿童福祉研究的数据，考虑父亲监禁对儿童 5 岁时身体攻击行为的影响，扩展了对大规模监禁后果和儿童行为问题原因的研究。结果表明，父亲入狱与男孩的身体攻击行为增加有关，这种影响集中在父亲既没有因暴力犯罪而入狱，也没有虐待男孩母亲的男孩。研究结果还表明，父亲的监禁可能会减少女孩的身体攻击性，尽管这一发现并不可靠。总而言之，结果表明，大规模监禁可能会导致分层制度，其中犯罪和监禁从父亲传给儿子（但不会传给女儿）。
This study extends research on the consequences of mass imprisonment and the causes of children's behavioral problems by considering the effects of paternal incarceration on children's physical aggression at age 5 using data from the Fragile Families and Child Wellbeing Study. Results suggest that paternal incarceration is associated with increased physical aggression for boys, and that effects are concentrated among boys whose fathers were neither incarcerated for a violent offense nor abusive to the boys' mother. Results also suggest that paternal incarceration may decrease girls' physical aggression, although this finding is not robust. Taken together, results imply that mass imprisonment may contribute to a system of stratification in which crime and incarceration are passed down from fathers to sons (but not daughters).
