Understanding Head Start children's problem behaviors in the context of arrest or incarceration of household members

Factor analyses foun…

Marital Disruption, Parent-Child Relationships, and Behavior Problems in Children
This study examines the effects of marital disruption on children's behavior, accounting for variations in postdisruption living arrangements and the effects of parent-child relationships and marital conflict. The study is based on a 1981 national sample of 1,400 children aged 12-16. Disruption was associated with a higher incidence of several behavior problems, negative effects being greatest with multiple marital transitions. The negative effec…

The analysis reveals large racial differences in both the incidence and aftermath of disruption. Black…
