Redefining Exposure: Using Mobile Technology and Geospatial Analysis to Explore When and Where Chicago Adolescents are Exposed to Neighborhood Characteristics
Differences in how individuals navigate and interact with physical space have clear implications for when and where they are exposed to environmental characteristics.

We use exposure t…
