Sumario:This study was a secondary analysis of Survey of Youth in Residential Placement (SYRP) 2003 [United States] <a href="https://doi.org/10.3886/ICPSR34304.v1">ICPSR 34304</a>. In recent years, considerable empirical and theoretical attention has been given to the overlap between gang membership and victimization. Gang-involved youth are significantly more likely to experience both violent and nonviolent victimization than are their non-gang peers. Much of what is known about the gang-victimization link, however, comes from studies of youth in the community. In this study, we explore the relationship between gang affiliation and victimization in a nationally representative sample of youth in residential placement.
