Personal and Situational Factors in Drug Use as Perceived by Kibbutz Youth.
Wolf, Yuval; And Others
Adolescence, v30 n120 p909-30 Win 1995
Sixteen 17-year-old kibbutz members, including 7 hashish smokers and 9 nonsmokers, assessed the probability that a young person of similar background would use drugs. It was found that hashish smokers assigned meaningful importance to a combined influence of personal predisposition and group pressure, while the nonsmokers considered only group pressure to be important.
