Shell-model calculations have been carried out for isospin-forbidden {beta}-delayed proton emission for 1{ital s}-0{ital d}-shell nuclei. The process in which a nucleus near the proton drip line {beta}{sup +} decays by a superallowed transition to the isobaric analog state in the daughter nucleus is considered. The first complete set of calculations for the subsequent isospin-forbidden particle decay of the isobaric analog state is presented. The decay channels considered include the processes of single-proton, sequential two-proton, direct two-proton, and {alpha} decay. The calculations reproduce the known data and suggest further experiments.
