本文的主要目的是阐明监禁影响健康的机制。在强调不平等的复合性质的理论的指导下，并将重点放在那些受到过去30年监禁急剧增加的不成比例影响的那些不成比例的影响上，对这些机制进行了探索。这项调查有助于更好地了解被监禁个人在监禁环境中、在获释后以及通过宏观政策所面临的问题。最后，提出了一个假想的启发式框架，说明了监禁如何影响个人、家庭和社区层面的健康。对政策干预计划和未来研究的影响进行了讨论，这些研究旨在解决被监禁人口健康状况下降的问题。本文的在线版本(DOI：10.1186/2194-7899-1-3)包含补充材料，可供授权用户使用。
The primary aim of this paper is to explicate the mechanisms through which incarceration affects health. Guided by theories that emphasize the compounding nature of inequality and with a focus on those that are disproportionately impacted by the drastic increase of incarceration over the last three decades, an exploration of these mechanisms is undertaken. This investigation provides a better understanding of the issues that are faced by incarcerated individuals in the incarceration environment, after release, and via macro-level policy. Finally, a hypothetical heuristic framework is presented that illustrates the ways in which incarceration affects individual, family and community level health. Implications for policy intervention programs and future research that serve to address diminished health among incarcerated populations are discussed.
