摘要

本文评估了学校和邻里同伴在塑造教育成就、青少年不良行为和成人犯罪方面的重要性。利用夏洛特-梅克伦堡县的队列变化，我们关注父母被逮捕的同龄人的影响，这是对更糟糕结果的强烈和独立的预测。结果表明，与父母逮捕有关的学校同伴增加5个百分点，会使教育成就降低0.016个标准差，并使成人被捕率增加5%。其他证据表明，同伴效应主要是由学校的互动而不是社区的互动驱动的。

The Effect of School and Neighborhood Peers on Achievement, Misbehavior, and Adult Crime

This paper assesses the importance of school and neighborhood peers in shaping educational achievement, adolescent misbehavior, and adult crime. Using cohort variation within Charlotte-Mecklenburg County, we focus on the impact of peers whose parents have been arrested, which is strongly and independently predictive of worse outcomes. Results indicate that a 5 percentage point increase in school peers linked to parental arrest reduces educational achievement by 0.016 standard deviations and increases adult arrest rates by 5%. Additional evidence indicates that peer effects are primarily driven by interactions in schools rather than in neighborhoods.

期刊介绍： Since 1983, the Journal of Labor Economics has presented international research that examines issues affecting the economy as well as social and private behavior. The Journal publishes both theoretical and applied research results relating to the U.S. and international data. And its contributors investigate various aspects of labor economics, including supply and demand of labor services, personnel economics, distribution of income, unions and collective bargaining, applied and policy issues in labor economics, and labor markets and demographics.
