New York City neighborhoods subject to higher rates of policing during the Stop and Frisk years experienced higher burdens of psychiatric hospitalization among their adolescent and young adult residents.

This association was larger in neighborhoods of color which have been disproportionately targeted by "hot spot" and order-maintenance policing practices and policies.

The study's co-authors include Zoe Verzani , Megan C. Finsaas , Natalie S. Levy , Ruth Shefner , and Amelia K. Boeme at Columbia Mailman .
