OBJECTIVE
To examine levels of violence exposure and reports of feeling unsafe in relation to psychological and behavioral characteristics for a general population sample of youths from an urban setting.
METHOD
A comprehensive survey of high-risk behaviors, attitudes, indicators of adaptive behavior, and daily involvements was administered to a sample of 2,248 students in the 6th, 8th, and 10th grades in an urban public school system.
RESULTS
More than 40% of the youths surveyed reported exposure to a shooting or stabbing in the past year, and 74% reported feeling unsafe in one or more common environmental contexts. Multiple regression analyses indicated significant relationships between violence exposure/feeling unsafe and a set of indicators of psychological and behavioral adaptation and expressed attitudes.
CONCLUSIONS
These results attest to the picture of violence as a common fact of inner-city life and to the demand that is placed on urban youths to accommodate in their psychological development to chronic threat and lack of safety.
目的
针对城市环境中青少年普通人群样本，研究暴力暴露水平以及与心理和行为特征相关的不安全感报告。
方法
对城市公立学校系统中6年级、8年级和10年级的2248名学生样本进行了一项关于高危行为、态度、适应性行为指标和日常活动的综合调查。
结果
超过40%的受访青少年报告在过去一年中遭遇过枪击或刺伤，74%的青少年报告在一种或多种常见环境中感到不安全。多元回归分析表明，暴力暴露/不安全感与一系列心理和行为适应指标以及表达的态度之间存在显著关系。
结论
这些结果证明了暴力是城市生活中的一个常见事实，以及城市青少年在心理发展中适应长期威胁和缺乏安全感的需求。
