“…This type of “deeply discrediting” attribute (Goffman, : 3) can limit a host of social and economic opportunities for individuals with criminal records (Bushway and Sweeten, ; Love, Roberts, and Klingele, ; Pager, ). Positive credentials, meanwhile, such as an occupational license, training‐program diploma, or judicially awarded rights‐restoring certificate, can reduce criminal record stigma and enhance future opportunities (Leasure and Martin, ; Pager, ; Radice, ). Amidst dramatically expanded public and academic attention to the burdens of living with a criminal record, “work has become the sine qua non of reentry” discussions (Demleitner, : 167) .…”

“…Our findings regarding the effect of prior criminal record on the likelihood of arrest are not that surprising when one recognizes that considerable social stigma results from an individual being labeled as a criminal in our society (Jacobs, 2015). Research readily shows that a criminal label hinders prospects for employment (Pager, 2007), delays the onset of marriage (Huebner, 2005), attenuates the probability of being admitted to a university (Pierce et al., 2014), hampers the likelihood of securing of rental housing (Leasure & Martin, 2017), impedes the ability to vote (White, 2019), and manifests harmful health outcomes (Massoglia & Remster, 2019). Various family and environmental factors attributable to parental convictions and independent of self-reported offending, such as an erratic parental job record, poor housing, poor parental child-rearing (Farrington, 1979), and coming from a low-income family (Farrington, 2001), can also have a salient influence on the future criminal behavior of a youth.…”

“…Recognizing these facts, some have begun to explore the negative impacts of misdemeanor records (Kohler-Hausmann, 2013; Leasure & Martin, 2017; Natapoff, 2011; Roberts, 2011). In one such study of particular interest here, Uggen, Vuolo, Lageson, Ruhland, and Whitham (2014) explored whether those possessing low-level misdemeanor arrest records faced difficulties in securing employment.…”
