Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Collective efficacy refers to the degree to which community members work together to maintain social order and exercise control over the behavior of residents, including young people. It is characterized by a shared sense of trust, mutual obligation, and willingness to intervene in the supervision of children to support positive social behavior. This type of community organization can help prevent delinquency and youth offending, and foster positive outcomes for young people. Collective efficacy is distinct from community narcissism, which refers to an excessive or inappropriate focus on community reputation or self-promotion, and community level anomie, which is characterized by a lack of social cohesion and shared values.
