Quantifying the Effect of Neighbourhood on Individuals: Challenges, Alternative Approaches, and Promising Directions (2008, background): “There have been several comprehensive reviews of the potential theoretical links between neighbourhood processes and individual outcomes; see especially Jencks / Mayer (1990); Duncan / Connell / Klebanov (1997); Gephart (1997); Friedrichs (1998); Dietz (2002); Sampson / Morenoff / Gannon-Rowley (200”
Race, space, and unemployment duration (2005, background): “[4], negative neighborhood effects may not significantly affect oppor structures until such effects have reached critical threshold levels.”
On the Nature of Neighbourhood (2001, background): “There are four distinct, not mutually exclusive, mechanisms suggested by extant theory through which thresholds may be produced: collective socialisation, contagion, gaming, preference models (for a review, see Quercia and Galster, 2000; for evidence, see Galster et al., 2000).”
Spatial configurations in a periurban city. A cellular automata-based microeconomic model (2007, background): “Indeed, the significance of neighbourhood (Schelling-type) interactions is still very much emphasised in recent empirical or theoretical work on residential change and the internal social structure of cities (e.g. Durlauf, 2004; Galster et al., 2000; Ioannides, 2002).”
Do Neighborhoods Affect Hours Worked? Evidence from Longitudinal Data (2004, background): “They may be greatest in the neighborhoods at the extreme low end of the distribution (Wilson 1987, 1996; Crane 1991; Galster, Quercia, and Cortes 2000; Krauth 2000).”
Should Policy Makers Strive for Neighborhood Social Mix? An Analysis of the Western European Evidence Base (2007, background): “7 For a review and application of these statistical procedures, see Galster et al. (2000).”
‘Living the High Life’? Residential, Social and Psychosocial Outcomes for High-Rise Occupants in a Deprived Context (2012, background): “, 2000 )? The issue of such a threshold effect is more often investigated with respect to residential density than to the impacts of the built form itself, and also more often posed than answered.”
