Addressed the ecology of deviant peer involvement, antisocial behavior and alcohol use, utilizing publically available information for indices of community risk/protective factors. A geospatial model was developed, combining geographic data (census, crime proximity, race/ethnicity, transportation accessibility) with information gathered for individual adolescents/household, geo-coded by home address. Adolescent-report of delinquency, association with deviant peers, substance use, and parental monitoring was obtained, along with parent-report of demographic characteristics. Deviant peer involvement was predicted by the Crime Proximity Index, with closeness of crime being associated with more deviant peer affiliation, as well as the Transportation Index, with greater accessibility leading to more involvement with troubled peers. Antisocial behaviors also increased with greater access to transportation. Adolescent alcohol use was lower in communities with a higher proportion of a non-Caucasian population, and increased with greater transportation access. Adolescent outcomes were associated with different prediction models, yet parental monitoring emerged as a consistent contributing factor.
利用公开可用信息作为社区风险/保护因素指标，探讨了不良同伴参与、反社会行为和酒精使用的生态学。开发了一个地理空间模型，将地理数据（人口普查、犯罪临近度、种族/民族、交通可达性）与为青少年个体/家庭收集的信息相结合，并按家庭住址进行地理编码。获取了青少年关于犯罪、与不良同伴的关联、物质使用以及父母监督的报告，以及父母关于人口特征的报告。犯罪临近指数可预测不良同伴参与情况，犯罪临近度越高，不良同伴关系越密切；交通指数也有此作用，交通可达性越高，与问题同伴的接触就越多。反社会行为也随着交通可达性的提高而增加。在非白人人口比例较高的社区，青少年酒精使用率较低，且随着交通可达性的提高而增加。青少年的结果与不同的预测模型相关，但父母监督是一个一致的促成因素。
