I'm looking to do a literature review related to mothers in custody and early years psychological development. Does anyone have any recommendations?
Hi, if you want to include long-term effects, try the last 10 - 15 years on my list of contributions.

Hi, It's more of an intervention paper, but maybe worth reading. One of my colleagues (Kata Lenard) is a co-author: Tessa Baradon, Peter Fonagy, Kirsten Bland, Kata Lenard, Michelle Sleed: New Beginnings – an experience-based program addressing the attachment relationship between mothers and their babies in prisons, Journal of Child Psychotherapy. Volume 34, Issue 2., pp. 240-258

Go to James McHale's page here on Research Gate. He has a number of outcome studies of mother's who are incarcerated and coparenting with their own mothers. Here are a couple:
