This instrument can be found on page 326 of Measuring Violence-Related Attitudes‚ Behaviors‚ and Influences Among Youths: A Compendium of Assessment Tools‚ available online at: http://www.cdc.gov/violenceprevention/pdf/YV_Compendium.pdf
Point values are assigned as follows:
Items 1-2:
Strongly agree=1
Agree=2
 Neither=3
Disagree=4
Strongly disagree=5
Items 3-4:
True=1‚ False=2
Reverse code items 1 and 2; recode items 3 and 4 as follows: 1 = 4; 2 = 2. Once items have been recoded‚ point values for all items are summed and then divided by the total number of items. A higher score indicates greater comfort and engagement in the neighborhood.
