Resilience in Context: The Association between Neighborhood Disadvantage and Cumulative Positive Childhood Experiences among Justice-Involved Youth

Abstract

Alongside the research on the impact of cumulative trauma on later outcomes, scholars have started to investigate how an accumulation of protective factors may buffer adverse outcomes. However, these studies have failed to consider how one’s social context, in particular the levels of social disorganization and immigrant concentration present, may be associated with the accumulation of protective factors. Using data from the Florida Department of Juvenile Justice, the current study examines how both youth- and neighborhood-level factors predict cumulative positive childhood experiences (PCEs) among justice-involved youth. The results indicated that while immigrant concentration is unassociated with PCE accumulation, social disorganization is negatively associated with the number of PCEs, holding all else constant.

Profiles of Resilience among Children Exposed to Non-Maltreatment Adverse Childhood Experiences

“…Relatedly, future research should study other types of NM-ACEs, such as parental loss and parental incarceration, and incorporate these into the ACEs/trauma dose framework. Additionally, it may be beneficial to incorporate strengthsoriented measures, such as positive childhood experiences (PCEs) [68], to move beyond the risk-oriented ACEs measure and comprehensively assess childhood experiences and their relations to resilience profiles [69,70].…”

Influence of Childhood Adversity on Students’ Delinquent Activities: Interplay with Neighborhood Context and Delinquent Peer Association

“…Neighborhood disorganization with the presence of crime, drug dealing, fighting, empty buildings, or graffiti in the community often provides juveniles an opportunity to be involved in antisocial activities or feel less sensitive to such behaviors [9]. A substantial body of literature provides us with the support that neighborhood disorganization is positively associated with delinquency [94][95][96][97][98][99][100]. As evidence supports that family deprivation may be associated with delinquent exposures, our present hypothesis states that when adolescents face family deprivation and go through neighborhood disorganization, that may intensify their delinquent behaviors.…”
