Förlagets beskrivning
This study examined the impact of neighborhood and family-level social disadvantage and violence exposure on the social-emotional outcomes of infants and toddlers. The following questions were addressed: (1) Do indicators of social disadvantage and violence exposure at the family and neighborhood-level increase the likelihood of negative outcomes and are these effects best characterized as unique, additive, or interactive? (2) Do neighborhood-level factors impact social-emotional development over and above family-level factors, and do family-level factors mediate and/or moderate the impact of neighborhood factors? (3) Are the links between neighborhood and family-level social disadvantage and violence exposure and social-emotional outcomes mediated by parenting factors? Parent-report data from a community sample of 1279 children who resided in the Greater New Haven, Connecticut area were analyzed. Competence and problem behaviors were measured by the Externalizing, Internalizing, Dysregulation, and Competence domains of the Infant-Toddler Emotional Assessment (ITSEA). Parenting stress was measured by the Parenting Stress Index. Parental affective symptoms were measured by the Center for Epidemiologic Study of Depression and the Beck Anxiety Inventory. Neighborhood-level social disadvantage was measured by a composite modeled after the Sawhill Underclass Index, an established measure defining the underclass, that was created utilizing data from the State of Connecticut. Family-level social disadvantage was measured by a composite created to replicate the structure to the Sawhill Index utilizing ITSEA covariate variables. Family-level violence exposure was measured by a summary score of violence related items on the parent-report of Child Life Events. There was evidence in support of violence exposure and social disadvantage both predicting social-emotional outcome. Furthermore, there was also evidence of an additive effect with violence exposure and social disadvantage both continuing to uniquely predict outcome when added into the model together. There was also evidence that neighborhood-level social disadvantage did have an effect on social-emotional outcome over-and-above effects at the family-level. Finally, there was evidence of a meditational relationship between family-level social disadvantage and violence exposure, neighborhood-level social disadvantage, and social-emotional outcome. Findings indicate that the effects of violence exposure and social disadvantage are evident in children as young as 12- to 36-months of age
