研究人员对 709 名非裔美国女性的社区特征对幸福感的影响进行了研究。测试了邻里特征对痛苦的直接影响和调节影响。邻里凝聚力和混乱的总体评级与痛苦显着相关,尽管当个体风险因素受到统计控制时,凝聚力和痛苦之间的关系变得不显着。在痛苦预测中,总体水平的邻里变量与个人风险和资源变量显着相互作用,这与特质情境相互作用理论一致(D. Magnusson & N. S. Endler,1977)。社区凝聚力增强了积极人生观的好处。社区混乱加剧了个人资源的好处和个人风险因素的有害影响。结果显示非裔美国女性具有复原力。
The effects of community characteristics on well-being were examined among 709 African American women. Direct and moderating effects of neighborhood characteristics on distress were tested. Aggregate-level ratings of neighborhood cohesion and disorder were significantly related to distress, although the relation between cohesion and distress became nonsignificant when individual risk factors were statistically controlled. Aggregate-level neighborhood variables interacted significantly with individual risk and resource variables in the prediction of distress, consistent with trait-situation interaction theories (D. Magnusson & N. S. Endler, 1977). Community cohesion intensified the benefits of a positive life outlook. Community disorder intensified both the benefits of personal resources and the detrimental effects of personal risk factors. Results showed evidence of resilience among African American women.
