Parental imprisonment: Effects on boy's antisocial behavior and delinquency through the life-course
Article Abstract:
Parental imprisonment predicts boy's antisocial and delinquent behavior partly because of the trauma of separation, partly because parental imprisonment is a marker for parental criminality, and partly because of childhood risks associated with parental imprisonment. Parental imprisonment appears to affect children over and above separation experiences and associated risks.
