|a The purpose of the study was to explore the relationship between community violence exposure, depression and aggression in Haitian American Adolescents. A total of 106 participants completed three self-report questionnaires assessing rates of community violence exposure, depression, and aggression. It was found that community violence exposure and depression and aggression were strongly correlated. No gender differences were found between boys’ and girls’ rates on the three variables. There was an association between community violence exposure, somatic complaints, negative self-evaluation, and hostility for both boys and girls. In addition, girls demonstrated an additional association between community violence exposure and dysphoria, anger, which was not expected. The study is useful in contributing to the limited research done with Haitian American adolescents. Ecological and social learning theories were applied to conceptualize the findings and provide insight for further research and implications for clinicians and policy makers. |
