TLDR
In this paper, the authors argue that parental incarceration may adversely affect multiple life outcomes for children as they progress from adolescence into adulthood and that such effects may persist from early young adulthood into late young adulthood.Abstract:
Objectives:The transition to adulthood can be challenging, especially for children of incarcerated parents. Drawing on reentry and life-course scholarship, we argue that parental incarceration may adversely affect multiple life outcomes for children as they progress from adolescence into adulthood and that such effects may persist from early young adulthood into late young adulthood.Methods:The study uses propensity score matching analyses of National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health data (N = 12,844).Results:Analyses identified harmful effects of parental incarceration on many life domains, including criminal behavior, mental health, illegal drug use, education, earnings, and intimate relationships. These effects typically surfaced by early young adulthood and continued into late young adulthood.Conclusions:The results suggest that parental incarceration constitutes a significant turning point in the lives of young people and underscore the importance of life-course perspectives for understanding ...read more

Linking parental incarceration and family dynamics associated with intergenerational transmission: A life-course perspective.
TL;DR: This article finds evidence that some effects attributed to parental incarceration likely connect to unmeasured features of the broader family context, and together parental incarceration and the broader climate often constitute a tightly coupled package of family-related risks linked to intergenerational continuities in criminal behavior and other forms of social disadvantage.
