abstract="PROBLEM: Both housing instability and prenatal substance use are known risk factors for behavioral problems among adolescents. <br><br>METHODS: The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between residential instability (residential mobility and homelessness) and delinquent behaviors among adolescents enrolled in the maternal lifestyle study (MLS), a 16-year research study that explored short-term and long-term effects of in-utero exposure to cocaine and/or opiates (N = 736). Logistic regression was used to measure the association between housing problems with youth crimes, school delinquency, and substance use at 11, 15, and 16 years of age. <br><br>FINDINGS: Both high-frequency residential mobility and homelessness were associated with deviant behaviors across the entire sample of children born with in-utero cocaine/opiate exposure and those without. <br><br>CONCLUSIONS: Psychiatric nursing care of youth should include a comprehensive assessment of residential instability to identify risk and target potential interventions.<br><br>© 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
