PAUL,\r\n1970-1982 (ICPSR 8167), which was designed to explore the relationship\r\nbetween small commercial centers and their surrounding\r\nneighborhoods. Some variables from the original study were recoded and\r\nnew variables were created in order to examine the impact of community\r\nstructure, crime, physical deterioration, and other signs of\r\nincivility on residents' and merchants' cognitive and emotional\r\nresponses to disorder. This revised collection sought to measure\r\nseparately the contextual and individual determinants of commitment to\r\nlocale, informal social control, responses to crime, and fear of\r\ncrime. Contextual determinants included housing, business, and\r\nneighborhood characteristics, as well as crime data on robbery,\r\nburglary, assault, rape, personal theft, and shoplifting and measures\r\nof pedestrian activity in the commercial centers. Individual variables\r\nwere constructed from interviews with business leaders and surveys of\r\nresidents to measure victimization, fear of crime, and attitudes\r\ntoward businesses and neighborhoods. Part 1, Area Data, contains\r\nhousing, neighborhood, and resident characteristics. Variables include\r\nthe age and value of homes, types of businesses, amount of litter and\r\ngraffiti, traffic patterns, demographics of residents such as race and\r\nmarital status from the 1970 and 1980 Censuses, and crime data. Many\r\nof the variables are Z-scores. Part 2, Pedestrian Activity Data,\r\ndescribes pedestrians in the small commercial centers and their\r\nactivities on the day of observation. Variables include primary\r\nactivity, business establishment visited, and demographics such as\r\nage, sex, and race of the pedestrians. Part 3, Business Interview\r\nData, includes employment, business, neighborhood, and attitudinal\r\ninformation. Variables include type of business, length of employment,\r\nnumber of employees, location, hours, operating costs, quality of\r\nneighborhood, transportation, crime, labor supply, views about police,\r\nexperiences with victimization, fear of strangers, and security\r\nmeasures. Part 4, Resident Survey Data, includes measures of\r\ncommitment to the neighborhood, fear of crime, attitudes toward local\r\nbusinesses, perceived neighborhood incivilities, and police\r\ncontact. There are also demographic variables, such as sex, ethnicity,\r\nage, employment, education, and income.", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "accessURL": "https://doi.org/10.3886/ICPSR02371.v1", "title": "Impact of Neighborhood Structure, Crime, and Physical Deterioration on Residents and Business Personnel in Minneapolis-St.Paul, 1970-1982"}], "identifier": "3125", "issued": "1998-10-15T00:00:00", "keyword": ["attitudes", "businesses", "commercial districts", "crime", "fear of crime", "neighborhood characteristics", "neighborhood conditions", "neighborhoods", "victimization"], "language": ["eng"], "license": "http://www.usa.gov/publicdomain/label/1.0/", "modified": "2006-01-18T00:00:00", "programCode": ["011:060"], "publisher": {"@type": "org:Organization", "name": "National Institute of Justice", "subOrganizationOf": {"acronym": "OJP", "id": 22, "name": "Office of Justice Programs", "parentOrganization": {"acronym": "DOJ", "id": 10, "name": "Department of Justice"}, "parentOrganizationID": 10}}, "title": "Impact of Neighborhood Structure, Crime, and Physical Deterioration on Residents and Business Personnel in Minneapolis-St.Paul, 1970-1982"}
