A growing body of research links interpersonal racial and ethnic discrimination to adverse youth outcomes. Yet, studies examining the relevance of neighborhood context for discrimination are sparse. This study examines neighborhood-level variation in the incidence and impact of perceived racial and ethnic discrimination on depressive symptoms, suicidal behavior, violent behavior, and substance use. Hierarchical regression models on a sample of 1333 African American and Hispanic youth (52.44% female; x̄ = 13.03 years, SD = 3.25 at wave 1) residing in 238 Chicago neighborhoods from the Project on Human Development in Chicago Neighborhoods indicated little to no neighborhood-level variation in the incidence and impact of discrimination. Findings suggest that the experience of discrimination among youth of color is ubiquitous.
越来越多的研究将人际间的种族和民族歧视与青少年的不良后果联系起来。然而，考察邻里环境与歧视相关性的研究却很稀少。本研究考察了邻里层面上，感知到的种族和民族歧视在抑郁症状、自杀行为、暴力行为及物质使用方面的发生率和影响的差异。对来自芝加哥邻里人类发展项目的1333名非裔美国人和西班牙裔青少年（52.44%为女性；第1波调查时x̄ = 13.03岁，SD = 3.25）样本进行的分层回归模型显示，歧视的发生率和影响在邻里层面几乎没有差异。研究结果表明，有色人种青少年的歧视经历很普遍。
