Fixed effects models of multilevel data from the Project on Human Development in Chicago Neighborhoods (2,201) determined that living with mothers' partners did not have a general protective or risky association with youths' secondary exposure to violence; however, this exposure was lower when such men were youths' biological fathers (vs. social fathers) and when they were married to (vs. cohabiting with) youths' mothers. The link between men's marital status and exposure to violence appeared stronger in higher crime neighborhoods. (publisher abstract modified)
