本研究探讨了拥有住房对 4 至 16 岁儿童和青少年情绪行为问题的影响。数据来自 1983 年在安大略省进行的两项大规模一般人口调查，即安大略省儿童健康研究 (N = 3,325) 和全国儿童和青少年纵向研究 (N = 12,592)。结果显示，房屋所有权与情绪行为问题评级之间呈负相关。在控制社会经济变量后，以标准单位表示的住房拥有量的净效应从教师和家长评级的 0.20 至 0.43 范围下降至 0.07 至 0.17 范围。此外，在这两项研究中，社区住房所有权的集中度与儿童问题行为的评级无关。旨在支持低收入家庭拥有住房的项目可能为改善弱势儿童的情感和行为功能提供一种手段。
This study examined the impact of home ownership on the emotional-behavioral problems of children and youth ages 4 to 16 years. Data came from two large-scale general population surveys conducted in the province of Ontario in 1983, the Ontario Child Health Study (N = 3,325) and the National Longitudinal Study of Children and Youth (N = 12,592). Results showed an inverse association between home ownership and ratings of emotional-behavioral problems. The net effects of home ownership expressed in standard units dropped from the .20 to .43 range for teacher and parent ratings to the .07 to .17 range, after controlling for socioeconomic variables. Furthermore, the concentration of home ownership in neighborhoods was not associated with ratings of child problem behavior in either study. Projects aimed at supporting home ownership among low-income families may provide a means for improving the emotional and behavioral functioning of disadvantaged children.
