Breaches in the Wall (2014, background): “In this case, near entry visitation might still hold benefits if it is enough to maintain social connections, or if there are other benefits, such as strain reduction (e.g., Blevins et al. 2010).”
Social isolation and inmate behavior: A conceptual framework for theorizing prison visitation and guiding and assessing research (2013, background): “For example, as noted above, scholars have argued that visitation may help individuals manage the strains related to incarceration (Sykes 1958; Holt and Miller 1972; Hairston 1991; see also, Agnew 2005; Blevins et al. 2010; DeLisi, Caudill, Trulson, Marquart, Vaughn, & Beaver 2010).”
