Improving Sex Trafficking Victim Identification
Although law enforcement and researchers have shared certain escort ad characteristics to detect sex trafficking, such as looking "young" or specific language cues, these indicators do not necessarily predict trafficking when tested against the counterfactual. We examined over 250 indicators in 1,263 ads from four states for which case outcomes were known (positive and negative for trafficking) and held focus groups and individual interviews with…
Retracing participants in longitudinal studies
Retaining participants in longitudinal studies is important but challenging when retracing them after a substantial gap between study phases. Utilising our nine year mixed-methods longitudinal study of 54 families affected by paternal imprisonment, we qualitatively analysed our processes and experiences of retracing participants after a seven year gap in contact. Paying attention to the spatio-temporal features that are traditionally an analytica…
"Desastre Ambiental Na Amazônia
O presente trabalho analisa a cobertura jornalística realizada pelos jornais O Liberal e Diário do Pará, ambos paraenses, sobre o acidente ambiental ocorrido em Barcarena-PA, em fevereiro/2018, envolvendo a empresa norueguesa Hydro/Alunorte. O foco principal é perceber como a perspectiva da ciência ganhou espaço e impactou a cobertura do caso. Para isso, a metodologia usada foi a análise qualitativa de conteúdo, descrita por Sousa (2006). Dentre …
Prisoners’ Families, Penal Power, and the Referred Pains of Imprisonment
This chapter develops the analysis of the ‘punishment beyond the legal offender’. It illustrates how parental imprisonment was experienced differently within and across families, and while not all experiences were negative, there were common experiences of hardship. The chapter considers these personal and social hardships ‘referred pains of imprisonment’. Its analysis shows how these experiences were shaped by the direct contact families had wit…
Re‐framing the Analysis
This article highlights three dimensions to understanding children's well‐being during and after parental imprisonment which have not been fully explored in current research. A consideration of ‘time’ reveals the importance of children's past experiences and their anticipated futures. A focus on ‘space’ highlights the impact of new or altered environmental dynamics. A study of ‘agency’ illuminates how children cope within structural, material and…
Male prisoners’ family relationships and resilience in resettlement
Theories of social bonding and social capital support the argument that positive family relationships are important for resilience in resettlement after release from prison. However, this topic has rarely been addressed in prospective longitudinal studies of resettlement processes. This study gathered interview data from 39 family pairs of British male prisoners and their (ex-)partners before and after release. Questions on the father’s relations…
Children’s contact with their imprisoned fathers and the father–child relationship following release
This article investigates children’s contact with their imprisoned fathers and the influence on their relationships following release. It is based on data from a mixed-methods prospective longitudinal study of 45 children (aged four to 18) in England whose fathers had played an active role in their lives prior to the prison sentence. The study found that face-to-face contact and telephone calls correlated significantly with the father–child relat…
