An Empirical Examination of the Anomie Theory of Drug Use.
Dull, R. Thomas
Journal of Drug Education, v13 n1 p49-62 1983
Investigated the relationship between anomie theory, as measured by Srole's Anomie Scale, and self-admitted drug use in an adult population (N=1,449). Bivariate cross-comparison correlations indicated anomie was significantly correlated with several drug variables, but these associations were extremely weak and of little explanatory value.
