These issues were examined through qualitative analysis of 180 in-depth semi-structured interviews. The sample included youth with varying levels of gang involvement who attended schools across the United States. Youth relied on personal knowledge and visual cues to identify gangs in their schools. Despite the occurrence of vicarious victimizations and incivilities from gang youth, respondents indicated that gangs did not impact their school life. These youth frequently used normalization and delimitation processes to deal with gangs in their school. (publisher abstract modified)
