While the COVID-19 pandemic has far-reaching effects on communities and individuals, its impact on at-risk youth may be particularly pervasive and distinct. This RAPID project will study how at-risk adolescents and their parents experience COVID-19 in the initial time period following the novel coronavirus pandemic. The research will compare adolescents’ sleep, social skills, social relationship quality, stress, mood, substance use, mental health symptoms, physical health, psychosocial development, externalizing behavior, and delinquency across the COVID-19 outbreak. The project also will examine whether juvenile incarceration exacerbates the potential impact of COVID-19 on youth outcomes. The project will engage in a longitudinal study of at-risk (justice-involved, low-SES) adolescents to address how adolescent-parent dyads respond to and are affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. This research will use multiple methods, including self-report, collateral report, official records from the partnering department of probation, electronic daily diary reports, and actigraph technology, to assess changes in adolescents’ and parents’ functioning on a variety of outcomes in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The findings will evince physical and mental health risks in response to the pandemic among at-risk youth. As well, the research will provide best practices for juvenile detention facilities and departments of probation in times of crises to ensure that youth continue to receive important rehabilitative services while maintaining the health and safety of youth, legal actors, and community members. Results will contribute to the limited existing knowledge base on the needs, risks, and potential protective factors of a vulnerable group of youth during a global state of emergency.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

虽然Covid-19的大流行对社区和个人具有深远的影响，但其对处于危险的青年的影响可能尤其普遍且独特。这个快速的项目将研究新型冠状病毒大流行后的最初时间段中高风险的青少年及其父母如何经历Covid-19。这项研究将比较青少年的睡眠，社交技能，社交关系质量，压力，情绪，药物使用，心理健康症状，身体健康，社会心理发展，外在行为和整个COVID-19的爆发。该项目还将检查少年进化是否加剧了Covid-19对青年结果的潜在影响。该项目将对高危（涉及正义的低名）青少年进行纵向研究，以解决青少年 - 父母的二元组如何应对和受到COVID-19的大流行的反应和影响。这项研究将使用多种方法，包括自我报告，抵押报告，伙伴试用部的官方记录，电子日记报告和Actigraph Technology，以评估青少年的变化以及父母在响应Covid-19-19 Pandemic中对各种结果的变化。这些发现将对高危青年的大流行造成身体和心理健康的必要风险。同样，这项研究将为犯罪时期的少年拘留所和缓刑部门提供最佳实践，以确保青年继续获得重要的康复服务，同时维持青年，法律参与者和社区成员的健康和安全。结果将有助于在全球紧急状态的脆弱青年群体的需求，风险和潜在受保护因素的现有知识基础上做出贡献。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是通过基金会的智力优点和更广泛的影响来通过评估来获得支持的。
