Single and Multiple Patterns of Adolescent Substance Use: Longitudinal Comparisons of Four Ethnic Groups.
Maddahian, Ebrahim; And Others
Journal of Drug Education, v15 n4 p311-26 1985
Patterns of drug use for 847 adolescents from four different ethnic backgrounds (Blacks, Asians, Whites, and Hispanics) were examined over a five-year period. In addition to nonusers, only one large single substance use group emerged, alcohol users. Racial differences are discussed. Comparing patterns of substance use at three points in time, there was a general increase in drug use. (Author/ABL)
