Intergenerational Consequences of Incarceration

克里斯汀·特纳加州大学欧文分校美国监禁人数的迅速增长，其特点是集中在已经被边缘化的人群中，这意味着父母被监禁的儿童数量达到了历史上前所未有的水平。该项目将研究美国父亲监禁与儿童不平等之间的关系。研究者将收集和分析来自加利福尼亚100个家庭的纵向原始数据（对母亲和孩子的多次访谈），以调查父母被监禁的儿童与没有父母被监禁的儿童在学业、行为和社会结果方面的不平等。该项目将有助于了解父亲监禁和儿童不平等现象。通过考虑在监禁期间和之后展开的过程，该研究记录了父亲监禁对儿童的短期和长期影响。年代的幸福。此外，通过考虑受父亲监禁影响的家庭之间的差异，该研究探讨了父亲监禁对哪些孩子的影响最大。本项目探讨了父亲监禁对不平等代际传播的复杂和抵消性后果。这项研究将在理论上和经验上有助于我们理解父亲监禁和不平等的代际传递。该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、个体特征和儿童的异质性。经历父亲监禁的风险。通过考虑可能成为政策和实践干预策略点的家庭、学校和社区机制，该研究记录了父亲监禁如何对儿童有害。该项目将为缓解不平等现象的有效政策和实践干预提供信息。通过超越对父亲监禁的平均因果影响的检查，并考虑到父亲监禁的代际后果中固有的细微差别，该项目对社会政策和干预措施具有影响。例如，了解父亲监禁与孩子之间的动态关系？儿童的发展轨迹将为何时干预和干预多长时间提供指导。此外，了解不同人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，并将从干预中获益最多，从而为如何分配资源提供指导。最后，了解社会环境（如家庭、学校和社区）的作用将为如何最成功地干预提供指导。

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.
