尽管许多研究考察了社区的社会经济劣势对暴力数量的影响，但很少有人关注这些条件是否也会影响暴力的质量。根据安德森(1999)颇具影响力的民族志，我们得出了几个假设，即不同社会经济条件的社区之间暴力的性质是如何不同的。使用来自地区识别国家犯罪受害者调查(NCVS)的袭击和抢劫数据，我们的分析显示，支持安德森对不同社区背景下暴力性质的描述，但对他关于这些差异是由于社区效应造成的论点，我们的支持褒贬不一。
Although numerous studies have examined the influence of neighborhood socioeconomic disadvantage on the quantity of violence, little attention has been devoted to whether such conditions also shape the quality of violence. Drawing on Anderson's (1999) influential ethnography, we derive several hypotheses about how the nature of violence differs across neighborhoods with varying socioeconomic conditions. Using data on assaults and robberies from the area-identified National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS), our analyses reveal support for Anderson's description of the nature of violence in different neighborhood contexts, but only mixed support for his argument that those differences are due to neighborhood effects.
