Intergenerational Consequences of Incarceration

SES-1542474 Kristin Turney加州大学欧文分校美国监禁人数迅速增加，这一现象的特点是集中在已经被边缘化的个人中，这意味着经历父母监禁的儿童人数达到历史上前所未有的水平。这个项目将研究父亲监禁如何与美国的童年不平等有关。调查人员将收集和分析加州100个家庭的纵向基本数据(对母亲和儿童的多次采访)，以调查父母被监禁的儿童与父母未被监禁的儿童在学习、行为和社会结果方面的不平等。该项目将有助于加深对父亲监禁和儿童不平等现象的了解。通过考虑监禁期间和监禁后的过程，这项研究记录了父亲监禁对孩子的短期和长期后果？S。此外，通过考虑受父亲监禁影响的家庭的差异，该研究探索了哪些孩子受到父亲监禁的影响最大。这个项目考察了父性监禁对不平等代际传递的复杂和抵消的后果。这项研究将在理论和经验上有助于我们理解父亲监禁和不平等的代际传递。这项研究考虑了监禁的动态性质，以及在监禁期间和之后展开的过程。它还考虑了发育阶段、个体特征和儿童经历父亲监禁的风险-S的异质性。通过考虑家庭、学校和邻里机制，这些机制可能是政策和实践干预的战略要点，研究记录了父亲监禁对儿童是如何有害的。该项目将为有效的政策和实践干预提供信息，以缓解不平等。通过超越对父亲监禁的平均因果影响的审查，并考虑到父亲监禁的代际后果所固有的细微差别，该项目对社会政策和干预措施产生了影响。例如，理解父亲监禁和孩子之间的动态关系？S的发展轨迹将为何时干预和干预多长时间提供指导。此外，了解人口亚群中父亲监禁后果的异质性将有助于了解哪些儿童最需要干预并将从干预中受益，从而为如何分配资源提供指导。最后，了解社会环境(例如，家庭、学校和社区)的作用将为如何最有效地进行干预提供指导。

SES-1542474Kristin TurneyUniversity of California, IrvineThe rapid growth of incarceration in the United States, a phenomenon characterized by its concentration among already marginalized individuals, means that a historically unprecedented number of children experience parental incarceration. This project will examine how paternal incarceration is linked to childhood inequalities in the United States. The investigator will collect and analyze longitudinal primary data (multiple interviews with mothers and children) from 100 families in California to investigate inequalities in the academic, behavioral, and social outcomes between children with incarcerated parents in comparison to those without such parents. This project will contribute to knowledge about paternal incarceration and inequalities among children. By considering the processes that unfold during and after incarceration, the research documents the short- and long-term consequences of paternal incarceration for children?s wellbeing. Also, by considering the differences across families that are affected by paternal incarceration, the study explores for which children paternal incarceration is most consequential. This project examines the complex and countervailing consequences of paternal incarceration for the intergenerational transmission of inequality. The study will, theoretically and empirically, contribute to our understanding of paternal incarceration and the intergenerational transmission of inequality. The research considers the dynamic nature of incarceration, as well as the processes that unfold during and after incarceration. It also considers heterogeneity by developmental stage, individual characteristics, and children?s risk of experiencing paternal incarceration. By considering family, school, and neighborhood mechanisms that may be strategic points of policy and practice interventions, the research documents how paternal incarceration is deleterious for children. This project will inform effective policy and practice interventions to alleviate inequality. By moving beyond an examination of the average causal effects of paternal incarceration, and by considering the nuances inherent in the intergenerational consequences of paternal incarceration, the project has implications for social policies and interventions. For example, understanding the dynamic relationship between paternal incarceration and children?s developmental trajectories will provide guidance about when and how long to intervene. Also, understanding heterogeneity in the consequences of paternal incarceration across population subgroups will provide an understanding about which children most need and will most benefit from interventions and, therefore, provide guidance about how to allocate resources. Finally, understanding the role of social contexts (e.g., families, schools, and neighborhoods) will provide direction about how to most successfully intervene.
