Abstract

Abstract Parental incarceration has been found to negatively impact families and communities. This study examined characteristics that impact receiving in-person visits among a sample of incarcerated mothers of minor children in a large Southern prison system. Factors impacting post release plans to live with children were also examined. Contact with their children, race/ethnicity, offense type, previous incarceration, and sentence length predicted whether incarcerated mothers received in-person visits from their children. Receiving visits from their children, race/ethnicity, having custody prior to arrest, and offense type predicted whether incarcerated mothers planned to live with their children after release from prison. Implications for policy and future research are presented.

保持联系：对儿童监狱探访的预测因素和被监禁母亲获释后计划的探索性分析

摘要父母监禁已被发现对家庭和社区产生负面影响。这项研究调查了南部一个大型监狱系统中未成年子女的被监禁母亲样本中影响接受当面探访的特征。还研究了影响释放后与儿童一起生活计划的因素。与孩子的接触、种族/民族、犯罪类型、以前的监禁和刑期可以预测被监禁的母亲是否会接受孩子的亲自探访。接受孩子的探视、种族/民族、被捕前有监护权以及犯罪类型可以预测被监禁的母亲是否计划在出狱后与孩子一起生活。提出了对政策和未来研究的启示。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
