Abstract

With the increase in rates of incarceration there is a growing concern about the short-and long-term influence this may have on children of incarcerated parents. Prior research has shown that children of incarcerated parents are more likely to suffer from substance use, delinquency, home instability, and externalizing and internalizing behaviors. However, few studies have explored the long-term psychological effects of parental incarceration. The present study assessed the impact of childhood exposure to parental incarceration on psychopathic and impulsive traits in second generation female offenders.
