  Propinquity in Adolescent Friendship Networks: Implications for Health and Well-Being 

  Monday, Nov 3, 2025
  from 12:00 PM to 01:00 PM 

  "Relationships with peers, and friends in particular, are a crucial element of adolescent development and well-being, and these friendships are embedded in and influenced by the larger community. Most research on peer dynamics, however, has been limited in its ability to investigate how adolescents’ broader community shapes the interplay between friendships and problem- and health-related behaviors. In the current study, we examine whether and how geographic propinquity, as measured by distances between students’ homes, contributes to the formation of adolescent friendship networks, and discuss the implications of our results for adolescent health and well-being."

  Daniel T. Ragan is an associate professor in the Department of Sociology & Criminology at the University of New Mexico.
