There is a need to understand which housing and personal capacity factors facilitate and hinder maximum community participation among people with psychiatric disabilities. The present study examined housing and personal capacity factors associated with community participation in a large sample of persons with psychiatric disabilities living in the same neighborhoods (defined by specified zip codes). Three hundred and forty-three persons with psychiatric disabilities were recruited from congregate and independent scatter-site housing programs in 3 New York City-area neighborhoods with high concentrations of housing for persons with psychiatric disabilities. Participants completed measures of community participation, psychiatric symptoms, substance use, independent living-skill, self-efficacy, and coping style. Community participation measures grouped into 3 factors: social community participation, physical community participation, and vocational involvement. Social community participation was associated with negative symptoms and active coping, but not by housing. Independent living-skill moderated the relationship between independent scatter-site housing and social community participation. Physical community participation was associated with negative symptoms, active coping, independent living-skill, and residence in independent scatter-site housing. Vocational involvement was only associated with negative symptoms. Findings suggest that a complex array of personal capacity and housing factors are associated with community participation among persons with psychiatric disabilities.
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 24 December 2017.
All research outputs
#20,663,600
of 25,382,440 outputs
Outputs from Psychiatry Research
#5,868
of 7,588 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#339,627
of 445,833 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Psychiatry Research
#108
of 148 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,382,440 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 10th percentile – i.e., 10% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 7,588 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 10.3. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 445,833 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 13th percentile – i.e., 13% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 148 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 15th percentile – i.e., 15% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
