Purpose: The purpose was to examine how fear of crime, crime victimization, and perceived level of community incivilities are related to physical activity participation and outdoor recreation among Latino adolescents.
Method: The study utilized a mixed methods approach that included 25 qualitative interviews and 390 school-based surveys collected from youth across three schools in Little Village, Chicago, Illinois.
Results: Results showed that Latino adolescents who expressed greater fear of crime also engaged in less physical activity and outdoor recreation.
