Moving to Opportunity (MTO) offered public housing residents the opportunity to move to low-poverty neighborhoods. Several years later, boys in the experimental group fared no better on measures of risk behavior than their control group counterparts, whereas girls in the experimental group engaged in lower-risk behavior than control group girls. The authors explore these differences by analyzing data from in-depth interviews conducted with 86 teens in Baltimore and Chicago. They find that daily routines, fitting in with neighborhood norms, neighborhood navigation strategies, interactions with peers, friendship making, and distance from father figures may contribute to how girls who moved via MTO benefited more than boys.
机会转移计划（MTO）为公共住房居民提供了搬到低贫困社区的机会。几年后，实验组的男孩在风险行为的衡量标准上与对照组的男孩没有任何不同，而实验组的女孩则比对照组的女孩表现出更低的风险行为。作者通过分析在巴尔的摩和芝加哥对 86 名青少年进行的深入访谈数据来探讨这些差异。他们发现，日常生活、适应邻里规范、邻里导航策略、与同龄人互动、交友和与父亲形象的距离，可能会影响通过 MTO 搬迁的女孩比男孩受益更多的原因。
