犯罪受害与对社会发展的一系列负面影响有关，但研究主要侧重于儿童和青少年。关于犯罪受害对50岁及以上美国人心理社会功能的影响，人们知之甚少。依靠个人层面的数据，从第一波和第二波的纵向小组研究老年人的美国人的生活改变研究，目前的研究探讨了犯罪受害对自尊和自我效能的影响，分别为白人和非洲裔美国人。净就业，收入，抑郁症，年龄，性别，自尊和自我效能的影响，犯罪受害降低了非裔美国人的自尊和自我效能，但不是白人。然而，白人谁有更大的困难处理他们的受害表现出较低的后续自尊。更大的困难，他们的受害者也适度与随后的自我效能感白人和非洲裔美国人。最后提出了未来研究的方向和意义。
Criminal victimization is associated with a cascade of negative effects on social development, but research has primarily focused on children and adolescents. Less is known about the effects of criminal victimization on psychosocial functioning of Americans age 50 and older. Relying on individual-level data from Waves 1 and 2 of a longitudinal panel study of older adultsthe Americans' Changing Lives studythe current study explored the effects of criminal victimization on self-esteem and self-efficacy separately for Whites and African Americans. Net of the effects of employment, income, depression, age, sex, self-esteem, and self-efficacy, criminal victimization reduced self-esteem and self-efficacy among African Americans but not Whites. However, Whites who had greater difficulty dealing with their victimization evinced lower subsequent self-esteem. Greater difficulty with their victimization was also modestly associated with subsequent self-efficacy for Whites and African Americans. Implications and directions for future research are provided.
