This study makes use of a dataset recently collected among young people in Stockholm, Sweden (N = 1122), to investigate the impact of fear on young people’s mobility and precautionary behaviour, after controlling for previous victimization as well as situational characteristics of daily trips. Geographical Information Systems (GIS) and logistic regression models underlie the methodology of the study. Previous victimization, especially for sexual crimes, triggers precautionary behaviour among young people using trains and the metro. Signs of poorly maintained transit environments also affect young riders’ mobility patterns, as they state that they avoid particular stations or routes at particular times. Informed by principles of environmental criminology and the theory of fear of crime, the implications of the findings for both theory and practice are discussed.

这项研究利用了最近在瑞典斯德哥尔摩（N= 1122），在控制了先前的受害情况以及日常出行的情况后，研究了恐惧对年轻人的流动性和预防行为的影响。地理信息系统（GIS）和逻辑回归模型是该研究方法的基础。先前的受害，尤其是性犯罪，在使用火车和地铁的年轻人中引发了预防行为。运输环境维护不善的迹象也影响了年轻骑手的出行方式，因为他们表示他们在特定时间避开特定的车站或路线。在环境犯罪学原理和对犯罪的恐惧理论的指导下，讨论了研究结果对理论和实践的影响。
