Abstract
Social disorganization theory was used to frame a test of the sociostructural correlates of terrorism across 81 provinces in Turkey. Zero-inflated negative binomial regression (ZINB) models were used to estimate the relationship between terrorism and poverty, residential mobility, and ethnic heterogeneity. Initial regression models found that measures of poverty and residential mobility were predictive of terrorism. Subsequent models found ethnic heterogeneity was predictive of terrorism, while controlling for the influence of poverty and residential mobility.
