枪支是美国儿童死亡的主要原因。本研究探讨了0-17岁儿童枪支死亡者中种族差异和暴力行为的影响因素。我们使用国家暴力死亡报告系统（NVDRS）评估了2014年至2018年美国17个州儿童枪支凶杀案的个人和事件水平情况。在1085起儿童枪支凶杀案中，非西班牙裔黑人（NHB）的死亡率比他们在总人口中的比例高出三倍;他们死于枪支杀人的可能性是非西班牙裔白人（NHW）的九倍。NHW儿童更经常的父母/照顾者犯下的枪支杀人的受害者，和杀人自杀。暴力中断方案NHB青年之间，和NHW青年之间的家庭为基础的干预措施可能是有效的，在防止枪支杀人和杀人自杀。有必要对火器杀人犯进行系统调查，以更好地了解观察到的种族差异。
Firearms are a leading cause of paediatric mortality in the United States. This study examines the contributing factors of racial disparity and disproportionality among paediatric firearm decedents aged 0–17 years.We used the National Violent Death Reporting System (NVDRS) to assess the individual and incident-level circumstances of paediatric firearm homicides from 2014 to 2018 in 17 US states.Among 1085 paediatric firearm homicides, non-Hispanic blacks (NHB) died at a rate three times greater than their proportion in the general population; they were nine times as likely to die by firearm homicide as non-Hispanic whites (NHW). NHW children were more often the victims of firearm homicide perpetrated by a parent/caregiver, and of homicide-suicides.Violence interruption programmes among NHB youth, and family-based interventions among NHW youth may be effective in preventing firearm homicide and homicide-suicide. Systematic investigations into firearm homicide perpetrators are necessary to better understand observed racial disparities.
