Abstract:

This presentation from the CDC workgroup on Protective and Promotive Factors for Youth Violence will summarize recent findings from the Seattle Social Development Project (SSDP) regarding risk and protective factors for violence from late childhood into adulthood. SSDP is a theory-guided longitudinal study. Since 1985, SSDP has followed a panel of Seattle public school students from age 10 to age 30. The sample is ethnically diverse and gender-balanced: Of the 808 original participants, 396 are females; 386 are European American, 203 are African American, 174 are Asian or Pacific Islander, and 45 are American Indian or Alaska Native. Over 52% of the sample come from low income families. Results will further understanding of the conceptualization and measurement of risk and protection and will identify a range of malleable prevention targets within and across the individual, family, school, peer, and community domains. Findings of the study will also identify the degree to which the salience of predictors varies across developmental periods (i.e., childhood, adolescence, and early adulthood). The degree to which these findings are consistent with findings of other longitudinal studies will be examined and discussed.
