- 요약The neighborhood in which one resides represents an important contextual influence on health. Indeed, a large body of research has examined associations between myriad neighborhood conditions and health, often demonstrating that worse neighborhood conditions are related to worse health. However, few studies have examined when in development exposure to harmful neighborhood conditions may confer the greatest risk. In this dissertation, I aimed to address this gap in the literature by examining change in neighborhood concentrated disadvantage, depressive symptoms, and binge drinking across adolescence and emerging adulthood (Aim 1) and the age-varying associations between neighborhood concentrated disadvantage and depressive symptoms (Aim 2) and binge drinking (Aim 3) from ages 13-25. To address these questions, I leveraged a sample of 9,956 youth that participated in Waves I-III of the National Study of Adolescent to Adult Health. All participants were between 13-25-years-old at all three timepoints. The sample was predominantly female (53.18%), white (68.74%), non-Hispanic (84.42%), and resided in households where at least one caregiver had a high school diploma/GED or more (87.93%) and was employed (90.21%). Although this varied slightly across waves, participants resided in neighborhoods where, on average, 17% of residents were socioeconomically disadvantaged. To address the primary aims of this dissertation, I conducted time-varying effect models, structuring the data by age instead of timepoint, yielding estimates of the association between neighborhood concentrated disadvantage and depressive symptoms and binge drinking as a function of continuous age from 13-25. All models controlled for participant sex, race, and ethnicity, and caregiver educational attainment, employment, and receipt of public assistance. I found that neighborhood concentrated disadvantage increased across age, likely as a function of increasing concentrated poverty across historical time. Average depressive symptoms and engagement in binge drinking varied substantially by age, with the former peaking in late adolescence and the latter peaking in mid-emerging adulthood. Neighborhood concentrated disadvantage was only associated with depressive symptoms in emerging adulthood, whereas the association between neighborhood concentrated disadvantage and binge drinking was significant only in early adolescence. These findings may prove useful for the early identification of and intervention for those most at risk for depressive symptoms and binge drinking among those residing in disadvantaged neighborhoods. Several important directions for future research include 1) the development and use of datasets appropriate for longitudinal analyses of neighborhoods and health to elucidate how associations unfold dynamically over time, 2) investigating associations between neighborhood conditions and health that extend beyond socioeconomic conditions to examine other environmental features of the neighborhood, and 3) the incorporation of structural determinants of health and health inequities that shape the neighborhood context into research designs.
