All models contain controls for race/ethnicity of respondent, maternal education at birth, age of mother at birth, mother’s pre-pregnancy BMI, respondent’s birth weight, and if the respondent was pregnant at wave of interview. The interaction terms interact parental imprisonment with child age 5 CBCL measures. PI = parental imprisonment; SAT = Social-Attention-Thought disorders
  2. All measures for child behavioral issues are based on maternal CBCL scores at age 5. PI = Parental Imprisonment; SAT = Social-Attention-Thought Disorder; CBCL = Child Behavioral Checklist
  3. Significance levels (two-tailed): *p < 0.05 **p < 0.01 ***p < 0.001
