Reassessing the family-delinquency association: Do family type, family processes, and economic factors make a difference? (2007, background): “…the present article refers to four of these paradigms as social control theory, the social control/parental absence model (see Amato & Keith, 1991; Demuth & Brown, 2004), the family crisis model (see Biblarz & Raftery, 1999; Chen & Kaplan, 1997; Felner, Ginter, Boike, & Cowen, 1981; Wells &…”
Do Social Bonds Buffer the Impact of Adverse Childhood Experiences on Reoffending? (2017, background): “…both crosssectional and longitudinal analyses have found that juveniles who were more tightly bonded to their parents were less likely to be delinquent than those with weaker parental attachment (Bell, 2009; Craig, 2015; Demuth & Brown, 2004; Ingram, Patchin, Huebner, McCluskey, & Bynum, 2007).”
Adolescent's Adjustment in Four Post-Divorce Family Structures (2006, background): “This more uninvolved parenting style could probably heighten the risk of antisocial behavior and substance use among these adolescents (Buchanan et al., 1992; Demuth & Brown, 2004).”
Family Structure, Community Context, and Adolescent Problem Behaviors (2006, background): “It is also important to distinguish the gender of the parent, since there is evidence that living without a biological mother increases the risk of problem behaviors more so than living without a biological father (Demuth and Brown, 2004; Hoffmann and Johnson, 1998).”
The Effects of Family Type, Family Relationships and Parental Role Models on Delinquency and Alcohol Use Among Flemish Adolescents (2013, background): “Many researchers have reported a relationship between family type and adolescent general well-being (e.g., Amato 2006; Amato and Cheadle 2008; Demuth and Brown 2004; Emery 2006; Fischer 2004; Wells and Rankin 1991), even over successive generations (Amato and Cheadle 2005).”
The Association Between Adolescent Life Satisfaction, Family Structure, Family Affluence and Gender Differences in Parent–Child Communication (2012, background): “Demuth and Brown (2004) noted that children’s health outcomes vary between single mother and single father families and it is therefore advisable to distinguish between the two.”
