AI Article Synopsis
- - This study uses data from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health (Add Health) to explore how school and neighborhood environments during adolescence affect the risk of developing diabetes in young adulthood.
- - The researchers applied cross-classified multi-level modeling (CCMM) to analyze the impact of multiple factors, including individual characteristics, as well as school and neighborhood contexts.
- - Results indicate that individual factors play a major role in the likelihood of diabetes in young adults, with only minor contributions from school and neighborhood influences.
Article Abstract
Using data from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health (Add Health), this study examines the association between adolescent school and neighborhood contexts and the likelihood of diabetes in young adulthood. We apply cross-classified multi-level modeling (CCMM) techniques to examine the simultaneous influence of non-nested school and neighborhood contexts as well as individual, school, and neighborhood-level factors (N = 14,041 participants from 128 schools, 1933 neighborhoods). Our findings suggest that individual-level factors are most associated with young adult diabetes, with small contributions from school and neighborhood factors and a small proportion of the variation explained by school and neighborhood contexts.
