Becker, Harold K.; And Others
Journal of Drug Education, v22 n4 p283-91 1992
Assessed impact of Drug Abuse Resistance Education (DARE) on approximately 3,000 fifth-grade students in 1 school district. Findings from pretest and posttest self-report survey suggest that DARE did not significantly change amount of drug use, which was minimal at fifth-grade level. In general, children receiving DARE during the study period maintained existing levels of drug abuse. (Author/NB)
