大量工作记录了青少年遭受灾难所造成的沉重心理健康负担，但这项研究的大部分都集中在创伤后压力和内化症状上。人们对灾难暴露与儿童行为问题（CP）之间的关联或可能调节这种关系的变量知之甚少。鉴于 CP 与儿童遭受社区暴力之间的联系已得到充分记录，因居住在高犯罪率地区而先前接触过社区暴力的青少年可能特别容易受到灾害对 CP 的影响。我们在 2013 年马拉松爆炸事件发生后的前 6 个月内对波士顿地区的看护者 (N=460) 进行了调查，了解他们孩子与事件相关的暴露情况以及 CP。为了估计之前的暴力犯罪暴露情况，儿童社区被分配了从联邦调查局统一犯罪报告统计数据中获得的相应暴力犯罪率。在波士顿马拉松爆炸案和随后的搜捕之后，在这个方便样本中评估的波士顿地区儿童中，近六分之一的儿童的 CP 临床表现升高。先前的暴力犯罪暴露显着缓和了儿童的搜捕暴露（但不是爆炸暴露）与儿童CP之间的联系。生活在高、中（但不是低）暴力犯罪率地区的儿童中，搜捕暴露与 CP 增加有关。生活在以暴力犯罪为特征的社区的儿童在暴力人为灾害发生后发生 CP 的风险可能尤其增加。由于大多数灾后儿童干预工作都集中在创伤后压力上，因此需要努力制定针对儿童CP的计划，特别是针对居住在暴力社区的青少年。
A large body of work documents the heavy mental health burden of youth exposure to disasters, but the majority of this research has focused on posttraumatic stress and internalizing symptoms. Less is known about associations between disaster exposure and children’s conduct problems (CPs), or variables that may moderate such relationships. Given well-documented links between CPs and children’s exposure to community violence, youth with greater prior community violence exposure through residence in high-crime areas may be particularly vulnerable to the impacts of disaster exposure on CPs. We surveyed Boston-area caregivers (N=460) in the first 6 months following the 2013 Marathon bombing on their children’s event-related exposures, as well as CPs. To estimate prior violent crime exposure, children’s neighborhoods were assigned corresponding violent crime rates obtained from the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s uniform crime reporting statistics. Almost 1 in 6 Boston-area children assessed in this convenience sample showed clinically elevated CPs in the aftermath of the Boston Marathon bombing and subsequent manhunt. Prior violent crime exposure significantly moderated the link between children’s manhunt exposure (but not bombing exposure) and child CPs. Manhunt exposure was related to increased CPs among children living in areas with high and medium (but not low) levels of prior violent crime. Children living in neighborhoods characterized by violent crime may be at particularly increased risk for developing CPs after violent manmade disasters. As most post-disaster child intervention efforts focus on posttraumatic stress, efforts are needed to develop programs targeting child CPs, particularly for youth dwelling in violent neighborhoods.
