Abstract
In the past decades, an increasing body of research has delved into the mechanisms of adolescent delinquency from various perspectives, including individual characteristics, interpersonal relationships, school environments, and community settings. However, limited research focused on its association with community gun violence exposure. Utilizing data from 3,595 adolescents ( M = 15.63, SD = 0.71) and their families, we examined how the number of gun violence incidents proximal to adolescents’ homes and schools was linked with their self-reported delinquent behaviors, controlling for other important individual, interpersonal, and community-level predictors of adolescent delinquency. Results revealed relationships between gun violence within 1,000 and 500 m of homes (but not schools) and adolescent delinquency; yet the direction of the relationship differs by distance.

期刊介绍:
The Journal of Interpersonal Violence is devoted to the study and treatment of victims and perpetrators of interpersonal violence. It provides a forum of discussion of the concerns and activities of professionals and researchers working in domestic violence, child sexual abuse, rape and sexual assault, physical child abuse, and violent crime. With its dual focus on victims and victimizers, the journal will publish material that addresses the causes, effects, treatment, and prevention of all types of violence. JIV only publishes reports on individual studies in which the scientific method is applied to the study of some aspect of interpersonal violence. Research may use qualitative or quantitative methods. JIV does not publish reviews of research, individual case studies, or the conceptual analysis of some aspect of interpersonal violence. Outcome data for program or intervention evaluations must include a comparison or control group.
