description: Using a multi-methodological approach-- surveys and face-to-face interviews--Martin examined the jailed fathers' experiences in their families of origin, the family roles they played prior to incarceration, and the effects of being separated from their children during incarceration. The results show jail as a microcosm of Martin found both involved and loving fathers and uninvolved and detached fathers. In addition, the findings suggest support for attachment theory.
