Wyrick, David; Wyrick, Cheryl Haworth; Bibeau, Daniel L.; Fearnow-Kenney, Melodie
Journal of School Health, v71 n9 p437-42 Nov 2001
Investigated whether 10 secondary health education state curriculum frameworks included common mediators for preventing adolescent substance use. Beliefs about consequences, decision making skills, and stress management skills were most frequently identified. Commitment, lifestyle incongruence, and normative beliefs were least frequently identified. Among states that included alcohol, tobacco, and other drug sections, beliefs about consequences and resistance skills were identified most often. (SM)
