虽然关于犯罪恐惧的文献并不完全一致,但结果通常表明黑人,妇女和老年人是最害怕的群体。在种族、性别和年龄被同时考虑的情况下,研究通常假设这些关系是相加的。然而,老年学文献表明,年龄往往与其他地位特征相互作用,产生生活质量的差异。多元回归技术被用于调查数据,从八个芝加哥社区,以评估是否年龄,种族和性别对犯罪恐惧的影响是互动的。调查结果表明,存在显着的相互作用,这些调查结果的相关性进行了讨论的实际和感知的受害风险和犯罪和犯罪恐惧的亚文化解释。
While the literature on fear of crime is not wholly consistent, results generally indicate that blacks, women, and the elderly are the groups most fearful. In those instances where race, gender, and age have been simultaneously taken into account, studies have generally assumed that the relationships are additive. However, the gerontological literature suggests that age ofen interacts with other status characteristics in producing quality of life differences. Multiple regression techniques are used on survey data from eight Chicago neighborhoods to assess whether or not the effects of age, race, and gender on fear of crime are interactive. Findings indicate that significant interactions are present, and the relevance of these findings are discussed in terms of actual and perceived risks of victimization and of subcultural interpretations of crime and fear of crime.
