Perceptions of neighborhood disorder according to level of urbanicity.

Level of urbanicity Levels of perceived neighborhood disorder according to level of urbanicity
Perceptions of neighborhood disorder
M SD
Rural 0.35 0.41
Intermediate 0.52 0.49
Urban 0.63 0.51
 Association between urbanicity and perceptions of neighborhood disorder B = 0.13 (95% CI = 0.10 – 0.17, p < 0.001), B = 0.19

Note: B = unstandardized beta coefficient; B = standardized beta coefficient; CI = confidence interval. The standardized (B) beta coefficient indicates the unit standard deviation change in perceptions of neighborhood disorder given one unit standard deviation change in urbanicity. Standardized betas provide exactly the same point estimates as correlation coefficients and may be interpreted as correlations, with a score of +1.0 indicating a 100% positive correlation. Beta (B) regression coefficients account for the non-independence of twin observations.
