Abstract
This study examines how disciplinary practices are predicted by neighborhood risk (NR) dependent upon perceptions of neighborhood collective efficacy (CE). Results found a significant interaction between NR and CE on use of authoritarian discipline, F(1,146)=4.26,p=.04. As neighborhood risk increases, low CE, but not high CE, increases use of authoritarian discipline.
