Abstract

This study explores potential correlates of youth sex trafficking (YST) within the exosystem and macrosystem of the social-ecological model (SEM). A literature review of studies (n = 25) published between 2012 and 2024 identified factors linked to YST vulnerability and demand, including factors related to land use, concentrated disadvantage, the digital environment, and the built and social environment. Protective factors in the exosystem and macrosystem, such as strong community ties and anti-trafficking education and legislation, were also noted. Findings highlight the need for broader research on environmental predictors of YST, as predictive variables have the capacity to inform YST prevention strategies.

美国青少年性交易的相关因素:环境在塑造脆弱性和需求中的作用。
本研究探讨了社会生态模型(SEM)的外系统和宏观系统中青少年性交易(YST)的潜在关联。对2012年至2024年间发表的研究(n = 25)的文献综述确定了与YST脆弱性和需求相关的因素,包括与土地利用、集中劣势、数字环境以及建筑和社会环境相关的因素。还注意到外部系统和宏观系统中的保护因素,例如牢固的社区关系和反贩运教育和立法。研究结果强调需要对YST的环境预测因素进行更广泛的研究,因为预测变量有能力为YST的预防策略提供信息。
