本研究评估了居住在加拿大的 4 至 11 岁儿童的全国代表性样本中，社区和社会经济劣势对家长和教师对行为问题的影响。邻里之间的差异分别占家长和教师评分的 7.6% 和 6.6%。大约 25.0% 的邻里差异可以通过在邻里和家庭层面指标之间平均分配的社会经济变量来解释。家庭社会经济状况、单亲家庭状况以及社区中单亲父母的比例是行为问题的强有力、可靠的预测因素。评级是情境化的：居住在贫困社区的富裕家庭的孩子的行为问题较少，而居住在优势社区的贫困家庭的孩子的行为问题较多。
This study evaluated the influence of neighborhoods and socioeconomic disadvantage oil behavioral problems rated by parents and teachers in a nationally representative sample of children ages 4 to 11 years living in Canada. Between-neighborhood variation accounted for 7.6% and 6.6% of parent and teacher ratings, respectively. About 25.0% of this neighborhood variation could be explained by socioeconomic variables evenly divided between neighborhood and family-level measures. Family socioeconomic status, lone-parent family status, and percentage of lone parents in neighborhoods were strong, reliable predictors of behavioral problems. Ratings were contextualized: Fewer behavioral problems were assessed in children from well-off families living in disadvantaged neighborhoods, whereas more problems were assessed in children from poor families living in advantaged neighborhoods.
