Figure 1. The percent of alters with each health characteristic among children living in housing that is scattered in market rate developments versus clustered in public housing developments.

Figure 1

Alters are limited to friends. Predicted probabilities adjust for the child’s age, gender, race/ethnicity, number of years lived in the neighborhood, household income to poverty ratio, whether or not the head of household was born in the U.S., the head of household’s educational attainment and gender, family structure, network density, and caretaker’s corresponding health characteristic. We estimated separate models for each outcome: in the model predicting the proportion of alters who exercise, N=194; in the model predicting the proportion of alters who eat healthy, N=197; in the model predicting the proportion of alters who seem overweight, N=193; in the model predicting the proportion of alters who seem sad or unhappy, N=197; and in the model predicting the proportion of alters who drink alcohol, N=111 (only assessed among teen respondents). Although confidence intervals for several measures do not overlap for several predicted probability estimates, these p-values were no longer statistically significant after implementing the .Holm-Bonferroni adjustment.
