Ambiguity Aversion Interacts with Neighborhood Disadvantage to Predict Externalizing

We investigated how the relationship between ambiguity aversion and externalizing varies by socioeconomic disadvantage. As socioeconomic disadvantage increases, blunted ambiguity aversion becomes more strongly associated with externalizing. This suggests that risk for externalizing is amplified when individuals are less ambiguity averse and they are in higher socioeconomic disadvantage.
