Abstract
Questionnaires from 1,517 respondents were obtained by means of both a convenience and a snowball sample. 1,091 (72%) respondents had used cocaine at least once, while 426 (28%) had never used it. The data from this information about criminal cocaine use have been used to test the efficacy of two competing theoretical models of delinquent or criminal behavior, differential association and control theory. Both tabular and multiple regression techniques were used to analyze the cause of the respon dents' cocaine use. Differential association theory variables were found to be far more effective than control theory variables in explaining the use of cocaine.
