abstract="The adverse impact of directly experiencing violence has been documented; however outcomes associated with more distal violence exposure have only recently received attention. This concept analysis uses adolescent exposure to community violence to exemplify the concept of community violence. For adolescents, community is a fluid and ever-changing concept. Research has shown that adolescents exposed to community violence may suffer from symptoms of posttraumatic stress, depression, aggression, decreased scholastic ability, and lower levels of success. Nursing interventions that address adolescent exposure to violence have the potential to decrease the detrimental effects of exposure to community violence.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
