Abstract
We propose a longitudinal study linking ABCD cohort data to fine-grained social and physical neighborhood characteristics to test how cumulative and changing aspects of urbanicity across childhood predict mental well-being in late adolescence. We will model residential mobility and subgroup differences to identify temporal pathways and actionable levers for policy.
