Journal of School Health, v70 n2 p51-55 Feb 2000
Assessed kindergartners' knowledge of alcohol, tobacco, and other drugs (ATODs), examining the congruence between parent ATOD use and children's knowledge. Data collected prior to an ATOD prevention trial for kindergartners and parents indicated that most students recognized cigarettes, half recognized alcoholic beverages, and 17 percent recognized at least one illicit drug. ATOD knowledge did not correlate with parents' ATOD use. (SM)
