Abstract:
|
The current research tests three conceptual models found in the literature to explain citizens’ fear of crime—vulnerability, disorder, and social integration models—across male and female samples. While previous literature typically includes gender as a control variable, the present analysis goes beyond this to determine whether or not the models function differently according to gender. Moreover, these models are assessed for differential impact across the cognitive and affective dimensions of fear. To more accurately make these comparisons, the current analysis considers the simultaneous impact of individual- and city-level factors using multilevel modeling techniques. The analysis was conducted using recently collected data on 2599 citizens nested within 21 cities across Washington State. Research findings and policy implications are discussed. |
