7 Motivating question for the current study: Does environmental disorder propagate over time across levels of sociophysical and embodied space?
8 Why should we care about socio-spatial disorder among older adults? (1) Aging reduces physiological and cognitive competence and makes seniors more susceptible to stressors in their environments (2) Order and disorder emerge as tools of social control and as specimens of the medical gaze in later life (3) The line between order and disorder directly intersects with social stratification and the unequal experience of aging
9 Conceptualizing physical disorder Elements Chicago School Tradition Environmental Gerontology Embodiment Role of Disorder in the Theoretical Perspective a) Disorder as an outcome b) Disorder as a cause Mismatch between environment demands and personal competence (low P-E fit) Dimension of selfpresentation; signal of deviance What is the cause of disorder? Poverty, racial exclusion, disinvestment Unspecified; proactivity in shaping environment not originally part of the P-E model but recognized in later work Unspecified How is disorder measured? Residents perceptions of local conditions; objective measures; active means of data-gathering through systematic social observation Not disorder per se; measures of press, which covers a wide range of issues, from hazardous conditions and homebased hazards (e.g., inadequate lighting, slippery floors, loose rugs, poor lighting, unstable furniture) Changes in physical appearance and function (self-report or independent observation) Context Studied Primarily neighbourhood Primarily home, also neighbourhood Body
10 Interconnected environments and the propagation of disorder Ecological systems theory: the environments consequential for people s life course trajectories are multi-leveled and interconnected much like a set of nested structures [or] a set of Russian dolls (Bronfrenbrenner 1979, pg. 3). Social stress mechanisms Disorder propagates through loss of control, distress Social bonds and social control Disorder propagates due to inadequate social support and control
11 Charting the propagation process Hypothesis 1. Neighbourhood disorder increases household disorder. Hypothesis 2. Neighbourhood disorder increases embodied disorder. Hypothesis 3. Household disorder and embodied disorder are reciprocally related over time. Co-vulnerability of home space and body space, in mutual constitution (Dyck et al. 2005)
12 Charting the propagation process Hypothesis 1. Neighbourhood disorder increases household disorder. Hypothesis 2. Neighbourhood disorder increases embodied disorder. Hypothesis 3. Household disorder and embodied disorder are reciprocally related over time. Hypothesis 4. The association between neighbourhood disorder and embodied disorder (H2) is mediated by household disorder. Hypothesis 5. Household disorder leads to more embodied disorder over time, but not vice versa (in contrast to H3). Fully propagative model
13 Data Panel data from the nationally representative National Social Life, Health, and Aging Project (NSHAP) Wave 1: (3005 respondents aged 57-85) Wave 2: (75.2% of the W1 sample) Analytic sample consists of respondents who participated at both waves (n=2261) The full scope of neighbourhood observation was conducted only at W2 (W1 had single item) Selected longitudinal analyses use the single neighbourhood variable used consistently at both waves.
14 Key measures: Socio-spatial disorder Neighbourhood, household, and bodily disorder were measured by trained members of the NSHAP research staff Field Interviewer Questionnaire based on the principles of systematic social observation (first developed in the Project on Human Development in Chicago neighborhoods conducted by Robert Sampson) Scores standardized within interviewers in order to account for between-interviewer differences in disorder perceptions.
15 Neighbourhood disorder (Cornwell and Cagney 2014) Measures How well kept are most of the buildings on the street? [1=very well kept, 2=fairly well kept, 3=poorly kept, 4=very poorly kept] Describe street (one block, both sides): Clean vs. full litter of rubble [1-5] Quiet vs. noisy [1-5] No traffic vs. heavy traffic [1-5] No smell or air pollution vs. strong smell or pollution [1-5] Waves W1, W2 W2 W2 W2 W2 As a scale at W2, the five items load on a single factor and manifest good inter-item reliability (alpha = 0.82). Unless otherwise noted, neighbourhood disorder will refer to the single item, available at both waves.
16 Household disorder (Cornwell 2014) Measures How well kept is building in which respondent lives? [1=very well kept, 2=fairly well kept, 4=very poorly kept] Describe room where interview was conducted: Clean vs. dirty [1-5] Neat and tidy vs. messy [1-5] Quiet vs. noisy [1-5] No smell/pleasant smell vs. strong smell [1-5] Waves W1, W2 W1, W2 W1, W2 W1, W2 W1, W2 The five items load on a single factor and manifest good inter-item reliability (alpha = 0.83).
17 Embodied disorder Measures Describe the respondent: Well-dressed vs. poorly dressed [1-5] Hygienic vs. not hygienic [1-5] Waves W1, W2 W1, W2 The two items load on a single factor and manifest good inter-item reliability (alpha = 0.71).
18 Distribution of disorder scales at wave one and wave two (kernel density estimation).
19 Contextual covariates Census Measures: 2000 U.S. Census (for W1) and the American Community Survey five-year estimates (for W2) Concentrated disadvantage: scale composed of tract proportion poor, on public assistance, femaleheaded households, unemployed, below 18 years old, and non-white Census tract density Neighborhood Collective Efficacy (W2) (1) Reciprocated exchange: 3-item scale (α =0.76) with questions about the local area such as How often do you visit each other s homes? (2) Social cohesion: a 5-item scale (α =0.67) with agree-disagree questions about the local area such as This is a close-knit neighborhood.
20 Individual-level covariates Health Covariates Self-reported physical health (poor, fair, good, very good, excellent) Psychological Covariates Psychological Distress (11 item CES-D scale) Cognitive Functioning (Chicago Cognitive Functional Measures) Social Covariates Network size (number of confidants with whom respondent can discuss important matters ) Average closeness to network members Number of people living in respondent s household Support from family (how often they could open up to, or rely on, their family, α = 0.63) Support from friends (how often they could open up to, or rely on, their friends α = 0.73).
21 Demographic covariates Self-reported Race/Ethnicity (White, Black, Latino/a, Other) Education (less than high school, high school, some college/vocational certification/associate s degree, Bachelors degree and higher) Total household assets (property, cars, businesses, financial assets, with midpoint value assigned for those who do not know their exact net worth) Gender Age (years)
22 Analysis: testing hypothesis 1, 2, and 4 H1. Neighbourhood disorder increases household disorder. H2. Neighbourhood disorder increases embodied disorder. H3. Household disorder and embodied disorder are reciprocally related over time. H4. The association between neighbourhood disorder and embodied disorder (H2) is mediated by household disorder. H5. Household disorder leads to more embodied disorder over time, but not vice versa (in contrast to H3).

34 Discussion: Propagation of physical disorder in later life? Evidence for stepwise progression: neighbourhood home body No evidence of mediation by stress processes or social bonds Moderation patterns Those with few confidants and those who live in tight-knit neighborhoods seem most susceptible to neighborhooddriven household decline No moderation in link from home to body
35 Limitations Validity of physical disorder measures? Full neighbourhood disorder scale available only at W2 Only 2 NSHAP waves currently available
36 Towards a tighter integration between urban sociology and social gerontology Long debate over whether physical disorder erodes social trust and increases crime. But insights of social disorganization theory and broken windows debates have not been applied to the phenomena seniors of aging-in-place. version of broken windows applied to preservation of physical conditions broken windows to dirty kitchens, dirty kitchens to rumpled clothes? Person-environment fit models in gerontology emphasize the home. But they seldom account for what happens outside the front door.
37 Extending the sociology of embodiment in late life Existing research asks whether neighbourhood conditions get under the skin. But disorder also comes to be expressed upon the body. Future qualitative work needed: how do seniors negotiate appearance amidst disorder? succumb to or resist physical surroundings when performing self-care? Failure to sustain bodily order threaten[s] a person s capacity to remain part of mainstream society (Twigg 2007:295)
