Abstract

FINDINGS from a recent survey of a community-based sample of Black youth ages 12 trough 21 in Baltimore, Maryland (N=345) reveal that viewing fatal police violence videos significantly increases the odds of youth sleep disturbances, and about 30% of this association is attributable to emotional distress after viewing the videos.
