Incorporating a multiple discrete-continuous outcome in the generalized heterogeneous data model: Application to residential self-selection effects analysis in an activity time-use behavior model.
To what extent do experiences in childhood and parental influences shape mobility choices and behaviors in adulthood? This is the central question that this research seeks to answer through an analysis of a unique survey data set that includes variables describing a number of contextual factors from the individual’s childhood. The study presents a joint model of vehicle ownership and transit usage in adulthood as a function of childhood influences and experiences, while controlling for other socio-economic and demographic variables.
OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Poor housing conditions and quality can be linked with residents’environmental exposures, which may contribute to a variety of adverse health outcomes. This systematic literature review will examine literature around housing, environmental exposure, and health; and policy implications to reduce the impact of housing on environmental exposures. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: This systematic literature review will identify and evaluate published peer-reviewed articles as well as governmental and NGO policy briefs relating to connections between housing quality and condition, neighborhood characteristics, and environmental exposures (e.g., lead poisoning, secondhand smoke, PFAS chemicals) in the United States; and will particularly focus on health implications of such environmental exposures, racial/ethnic and socioeconomic disparities in exposure, and current and future policy recommendations to alleviate the association between housing and environmental risk. A computerized literature search of relevant electronic databases (e.g., PubMed, Sociological Abstracts, EPA database, Congressional database) for literature published after 2000 will be conducted. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: The findings from this literature review will be split up into categorizations around (1) the contribution of housing/neighborhoods on resident environmental exposure; (2) geospatial and demographic inequality (historic and current) around housing/neighborhood conditions contributing to disproportionate environmental exposures for low-income and minoritized residents; (3) health implications of environmental exposures; (4) prior policy addressing the connections between housing/neighborhoods and environmental risk; and (5) future policy recommendations to improve housing/neighborhood quality and minimize environmental exposures for residents. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: This project will illuminate connections between housing conditions and environmental exposures, health implications of these exposures, and contribute to advancing understanding of potential policies to reduce adverse environmental health impacts of poor housing conditions for residents (particularly for low-income, minoritized groups).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
