摘要

美国城市居民面临着高水平的压力和暴力犯罪。与此同时,一些城市已经提出了“绿化”的努力,这可能会促进自然的镇静作用,减少压力刺激。先前的研究表明,绿化可以降低攻击性行为和暴力犯罪。在这项研究中,我们首次使用多层线性增长曲线模型,研究了30年来美国290个主要城市的平均城市绿化对凶杀率的纵向影响。总体而言,美国城市的凶杀率在此期间有所下降(每10万人中有52.1-33.5人),而平均绿化度略有上升(0.41-0.43 NDVI)。在控制了一系列变量后,平均城市绿化的变化与凶杀呈负相关(β =−)。30, p值= .02)。这项研究的结果表明,增加城市绿化的努力可能会产生微小但显著的减少暴力的好处。

The Relationship Between City “Greenness” and Homicide in the US: Evidence Over a 30-Year Period
Residents in US cities are exposed to high levels of stress and violent crime. At the same time, a number of cities have put forward “greening” efforts which may promote nature’s calming effects and reduce stressful stimuli. Previous research has shown that greening may lower aggressive behaviors and violent crime. In this study we examined, for the first time, the longitudinal effects over a 30-year period of average city greenness on homicide rates across 290 major cities in the US, using multilevel linear growth curve modeling. Overall, homicide rates in US cities decreased over this time-period (52.1–33.5 per 100,000 population) while the average greenness increased slightly (0.41–0.43 NDVI). Change in average city greenness was negatively associated with homicide, controlling for a range of variables (β = −.30, p-value = .02). The results of this study suggest that efforts to increase urban greenness may have small but significant violence-reduction benefits.
