Detail PRIVATION AND VULNERABILITY TO VICTIMIZATION FOR CANADIAN YOUTH The Contexts of Gender, Race, and Geography Bibliografi Author: Eisler, Lauren ; Schissel, Bernard (Co-Author) Topik: youth; violence; vulnerability; victimization; risk Bahasa: (EN )     Penerbit: Unika Atma Jaya     Tahun Terbit: 2006     Jenis: Article Fulltext: 359yvjj24.pdf (83.0KB; 0 download) Abstract This study examines the complex nature of the association between poverty and victimization of adolescents. Based on a survey of 2,600 school-aged youth in the province of Saskatchewan, the analysis focuses on the effects of being poor on fear and victimization in school, noncriminal victimization outside of school, and overall criminal victimization. The results illustrate clearly that poverty places youth at psychic and physical risk. Importantly, though, the damaging effects of poverty on youth security are different for male and female youth, for Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal youth, and for youth living in urban, rural, and satellite communities and are dependent on the dayto- day context inside and outside of school. The findings support the necessity for a complex understanding of the relationships among poverty, crime, and victimization that include structural and geographical considerations.
