The current research examines the individual level and streetblock level variables that predict a resident’s perception of the willingness to intervene. Previous studies on collective efficacy have focused on the effect of collective efficacy on neighborhood crime rates and the mediating effect of collective efficacy on the relationship between neighborhood structure and crime rates. The current research extends existing research through an emphasis on predictors which affect the perception of collective efficacy. Using data from 305 residents in 50 streetblocks in Baltimore, Maryland and Hierarchical Linear Modeling (HLM) techniques, the current research examines the relationship between perceived incivilities and the perception of collective efficacy, and the mediating effect of sense of community (e.g., streetblock attachment and commitment). Results indicate that high levels of perceived incivilities at both levels are negatively associated with the perception of the willingness to intervene. Furthermore, the relationship between perceived incivilities and the outcome is mediated by sense of community. The current findings imply that place attachment and commitment play a pivotal role in affecting residents’ perception of collective efficacy.
