Abstract
The emotional experience of children and adolescents is unique; this emotional process is a result of the environment, parental modeling, and the resources available for emotional expression (Calkins & Hill, 2007). Youth living in lower SES neighborhoods are vulnerable to trauma exposure, victimization, and limited access to resources, all of which can impact their psychological functioning, development, and adjustment.
