Description The text presents the theoretical and methodological basis for assessing the well-being of children with incarcerated parents. Drawing on attachment theory and the capability approach, it explains how parental imprisonment affects children’s relationships, emotional security, and opportunities for development. It also outlines suitable indicators for evaluating well-being and highlights the ethical and methodological challenges of researching a stigmatized and underrepresented group.
