摘要

本研究考察了位于大南加州地区的跨街区(N = 103,168)种族异质性与犯罪之间的关系。我们估计了负二项回归模型，该模型测试了种族异质性在不同功能形式和空间尺度考虑下的影响。街区的种族多样性具有减少犯罪的效果，而街区周围地区的种族多样性通常具有制造犯罪的能力，尽管在非常高的多样性水平下，这种效果会逆转并减少犯罪。我们还说明了街区的种族异质性与周边地区的种族异质性之间的相互作用效应。结果的模式提供了对一个地区的种族构成如何对犯罪产生影响的细致理解。

Revisiting the Relationship Between Racial Heterogeneity and Neighborhood Crime: Do Spatial Scale and Functional Form matter?

This study examines the relationships between racial heterogeneity and crime across blocks (N = 103,168) located in the greater Southern California region. We estimate negative binomial regression models that test for the effects of racial heterogeneity in conjunction with different functional form and spatial scaling considerations. Racial diversity in the block has a crime-reducing effect, whereas racial diversity in the area surrounding the block generally has crime-producing capabilities, although at very high levels of diversity, the effect reverses and becomes crime-reducing. We also illustrate an interaction effect between racial heterogeneity in the block and racial heterogeneity in the surrounding area. The pattern of results provides a nuanced understanding of how the racial composition of an area has consequences for crime.
