\u3ci\u3eFamilies, Crime and Criminal Justice: Charting the Linkages\u3c/i\u3e

Contemporary Perspectives in Family Research is a series of volumes that features scholarly work on the frontiers of interdisciplinary research on families and family life. Volume 2, Families, Crime and Criminal Justice reflects this pioneering orientation by bringing together new empirical research that examines the various ways that families intersect with and are affected by crime and the criminal justice system. The interdisciplinary nature of the volume is reflected in the diversity of disciplines represented, including developmental psychopathology, criminology, sociology, family studies, psychology, social work and demography. The inclusion of qualitative studies based upon observational techniques and in-depth, long interviews as well as quantitative work using demographic and survey approaches demonstrates the wide methodological range employed by the authors. The topics examined include the involvement of children in crime, the patterns and impact of violence in the home, the impact of criminal involvement on parenting strategies and youth development, the experience of families of victims and perpetrators, and responses of the criminal justice system to the needs of families

Intrafamilial Sexual Socialization: Patterns and Outcomes, 1983

The purpose of this study was to describe and account for patterns of parental involvement and non-involvement in the socialization and social control of their teenaged children's sexual values and behaviors. A second objective was to explore the effect and pattern of parental involvement on the teen's sexual attitudes and behavior. The research was funded by the Office of Adolescent Pregnancy Programs of the Department of Health and Human Services and data were collected in 1983. The study covers many topics relating to family relationships and human sexuality including family communication, sexual attitudes, dating behavior, parental supervision and monitoring of teenagers, and physical affection among family members. The study includes 92 families from the Detroit area with teenaged children (ages 14-17 years). The families were chosen based on the identification of the focal teenage child as being a leader in school, church or community activities. Forty two of the families are African-American, 50 are white. Approximately one half of the families are one-parent households. Intensive structured interviews of two to four hours in length were conducted for each mother, father, and a focal teenaged child in the study. Families participated in a structured interaction task and individuals completed several self-administered instruments which included parent time lines (with dates of work, school, marriage, and children), questionnaires on parent/child relationships, teen's attitudes about birth control, teen attitudes about sex roles, parent attitudes about sex roles, parent assessments of their marriage and partner. The Murray Research Archive has acquired numeric file data which include data from the self-administered instruments and interviews, as well as audiotapes, text files, and typed transcripts of interviews. Copies of measures and interview protocols are also available. Audio Data Availability Note: This study contains audio data that have been digitized. There are 895 audio files available
