The Neighborhood Context of Adolescent Mental Health
Preprint
- preprint Published in RePEc
Abstract
Mental health disorders in adolescence are pervasive, often carry into adulthood, and appear to be inversely associated with social status. We examine how structural aspects of neighborhood context, specifically, socioeconomic stratification and racial/ethnic segregation, affect adolescent emotional well-being by shaping subjective perceptions of their neighborhoods.Keywords
