Consequences of Childhood Exposure to Intimate Partner Violence in Chicago, Illinois, 1994-2000 (ICPSR 20344)
Released/updated on: 2008-04-15
Geographic coverage: United States, Chicago, Illinois
Time period: 1994-01-01--2000-01-01
This study used data from the first two waves of the Project on Human Development in Chicago Neighborhoods (PHDCN) to analyze the consequences of childhood exposure to intimate partner violence. The researcher for this study attempted to make four contributions: (1) provide theory driven research in the field of intimate partner violence, (2) do practical research, (3) strike a balance between the resolution of measurement problems and the examination of concrete outcomes, and (4) use high quality data and advanced statistical techniques to adjudicate between conflicting findings in existing literature. The nine data files used in this study were drawn from multiple imputed iterations using the Expectation-Maximization (E.M.) algorithm and data augmentation to address missing data. They included data from two waves of the PHDCN, with 4,955 records for each wave. The data included information for subjects aged 0 to 18 and covered the years 1994 to 2000. The researcher used various scales to measure domestic violence exposer, the impact of exposure on the child's cognitive functioning, the behavioral impact of exposure to domestic violence, anxiety, and the parent-child relationship. Data include the variables that the researcher used to study the effect of domestic violence exposure on not only externalizing, internalizing, and total behavior problems, and academic and cognitive ability, but also truancy, grade repetition, and drug use. This study also contains a selection of variables from several PHDCN studies including those pertaining to intimate partner violence, child abuse, juvenile delinquency, deviance of peers, alcohol use, primary caregiver involvement in the subject's life, and demographics.

Development of Externalizing Behaviors in Chicago Youth Exposed to Intimate Partner Violence, Illinois, 1994-2002 (ICPSR 36809)
Released/updated on: 2023-08-14
Geographic coverage: United States, Chicago, Illinois
Time period: 1994-01-01--2002-01-01
Using data from all three waves of the Project on Human Development in Chicago Neighborhoods (PHDCN), this secondary data analysis examined the long-term effects of intimate partner violence (IPV) exposure during childhood and adolescence on subsequent externalizing behaviors (i.e., delinquency, violence, and substance use related offending).
The research questions for this study were as follows:
- Are there significant differences in the mean scores of different externalizing behaviors (measured as "offending" in the present study) in any of the three PHDCN waves between youth exposed to IPV and youth not exposed to IPV?
- Are there distinct developmental trajectories of externalizing behaviors among youth exposed to IPV when compared to those not exposed to IPV?
- How do different individual- and neighborhood-level variables act in predicting the developmental paths of externalizing behaviors among youth exposed to IPV?
Propensity score matching (PSM) was employed to match individuals reporting IPV exposure with those not exposed to IPV on key variables. Longitudinal latent class analyses (LLCA) were utilized to estimate the longitudinal developmental trajectories of externalizing behaviors independently for IPV and non-IPV exposed males and females and compared to each other. Multinomial logistic regression models were estimated separately for males and females exposed to IPV during their childhoods to examine the effect of different hypothesized class membership predictors.
This collection contains a master dataset primarily sourced from Emery's (2006) data augmentation along with key variables from all three waves from the PHDCN Longitudinal Cohort Study, cohorts 12 and 15 (DS1); datasets constructed solely for multinomial logistic regressions for youth exposed to IPV, separated by sex (DS2 and DS3); data for the final LLCA models separated by sex and exposure to IPV (DS4 to DS7); and probabilities and latent classes created using Mplus (DS8 to DS9) that can be merged to the multinomial regression data using the SUBID variable. Additionally, syntax for variable and model constructions, as well as Mplus output, have been included as a zip package. Please refer to the P.I. documentation for more information.

Experience of Violence in the Lives of Homeless Persons: The Florida Four City Study, 2003-2004 (ICPSR 20363)
Released/updated on: 2010-11-22
Geographic coverage: United States, Orlando, Florida, Tampa, Jacksonville, Miami
Time period: 2003-01-01--2004-01-01
The primary goal of this study was to develop an understanding of the role of violence in the lives of homeless women and men. The objectives were to determine how many women and men have experienced some form of violence in their lives either as children or adults, the factors associated with experiences of violence, the consequences of violence, and the types of interactions with the justice system. The survey sample was comprised of about 200 face-to-face interviews with homeless women in each of four Florida cities (Jacksonville, Miami, Orlando, and Tampa). In all, 737 women were interviewed. In addition, 91 face-to-face interviews with homeless men were also conducted only in Orlando. For Part 1 (Female Interviews), the data include information related to the respondent's living conditions in the past month, as well as experiences with homelessness, childhood violence, adult violence, forced sexual situations, and stalking. Additional variables include basic demographic information, a self-report of criminal history, information related to how the respondent spent her days and evenings, and the physical environment surrounding the respondent during the day and evening. For Part 2 (Male Interviews), the data include much of the same information as was collected in Part 1. Information from Part 1 not included in Part 2 primarily includes questions pertaining to experience with forced sexual situations, and questions related to pregnancy and children.

Users should refer to the accompanying readme file for a brief description of the files available with this collection and consult the investigator(s) if further information is needed.
This study was designed to determine the nature, incidence, and coincidence of forms of interpersonal conflict and resulting conflict management styles, including physical violence, in an existing nationally-representative cohort of 18 to 32 year old adults between the years 2016 to 2018. Respondent reports of conflicts involving aggressive and violent behavior were distinguished for three relationship categories: intimate partner relationships, friends/acquaintances, and relatively unknown persons/strangers.
The research design covered questions about the nature and frequency of conflicts experienced irrespective of whether the incidents ended violently; conflict management style/tendencies (remedial actions, apologies, accounts); and differences between conflicts that turn violent and those that do not. Additional questions covered include the frequency of violence during the course of disputes, including experiences with physical victimization and the perpetration of violent acts was assessed.
Also elements that facilitate conflict escalation that are deemed important theoretical constructs in research on aggression, such as adverse childhood events, low self-control, negative affect, street code attitudes, routine activities/lifestyles, agreeableness, and alcohol and drug use, in addition to demographic and other person-level variables were investigated.

The Project on Human Development in Chicago Neighborhoods (PHDCN) was a large-scale, interdisciplinary study of how families, schools, and neighborhoods affect child and adolescent development. One component of the PHDCN was the Longitudinal Cohort Study, which was a series of coordinated longitudinal studies that followed over 6,000 randomly selected children, adolescents, and young adults, and their primary caregivers over time to examine the changing circumstances of their lives, as well as the personal characteristics, that might lead them toward or away from a variety of antisocial behaviors. Numerous measures were administered to respondents to gauge various aspects of human development, including individual differences, as well as family, peer, and school influences. One such measure was the Child Care Interview. It was administered to subjects' primary caregivers (PCs) in Cohort 0. It included questions on the structure of child care arrangements, the flexibility and stability of this arrangement, and other questions related to child care. It also asked some questions similar in nature to those asked in PROJECT ON HUMAN DEVELOPMENT IN CHICAGO NEIGHBORHOODS (PHDCN): SCHOOL AND DAY CARE SCREEN, WAVE 2, 1997-2000 (ICPSR 13653).

The EASI Temperament Survey, introduced in the mid-1970s by Arnold H. Buss and Robert Plomin, was designed to evaluate subjects based on four temperaments (emotionality, activity, sociability, and impulsivity). For the purposes of the PHDCN Longitudinal Cohort Study, the EASI Temperament Survey was administered both to subjects and primary caregivers (PC). The young adults comprising cohort 18 completed the EASI Temperament Survey as a self-report inventory, while the primary caregivers of children belonging to cohorts 3 through 15 completed the EASI Temperament measure as a parental ratings survey. Respondents were asked to determine how accurately the behaviors or personality traits mentioned, characterized the subject in question, either themselves or their child. The responses to the EASI measure were used to evaluate the subjects' various social tendencies, emotional characteristics, and personality traits.

The Employment and Income Interview was developed specifically for the PHDCN Longitudinal Cohort Study with the intent of combining the employment and income data obtained with educational status data to create socioeconomic stratifications for the respondents. The Employment and Income Interview sought to obtain data describing the respondent's current or most recent employment and that of his or her partner. The Employment and Income Interview also sought information regarding primary income and additional sources of income as well total working hours, proximity to work, and means of transportation to work for both the respondent and his or her partner.

Numerous measures were administered to respondents to gauge various aspects of human development, including individual differences, as well as family, peer, and school influences. One of these measures was the Family Environment Scale (FES). The FES was designed to assess the interpersonal relationships and the overall social environment within the family. The FES captures the perception of the family's functioning from one of its own members. In the case of the PHDCN Longitudinal Cohort Study, the respondents who completed the FES were the primary caregivers for cohorts 0-15 and the subjects composing cohort 18. The FES specifically sought to quantify three dimensions of the family environment: interpersonal relationships, directions of personal growth, and basic organization and structure. In addition to acting as a self-report measuring the family environment, the FES was also used as an instrument to observe the effect of the family environment on the individual subjects. Three scales (Conflict, Control, and Moral-Religious Emphasis) from the Family Environment Scale were used in this questionnaire to further evaluate the functioning of the family.
