Social and environmental factors: interviews of women with incarcerated partners.
A qualitative study was conducted to determine factors influencing how women with incarcerated partners participate in health research. Interviews were conducted with 10 women with male incarcerated partners and analyzed using content analysis. Factors that influenced whether women participated in research included their knowledge of health-related research and the conditions under which the interviews were conducted (eg, the presence of children, how information obtained is used). The notion of "location" is described as it pertains to how women maintain relationships with their incarcerated partners. Future research to examine how incarceration affects partner health and family relationships is required.
