Abstract

ABSTRACT A study of 1,093 adolescents from six different public high schools showed that the same theoretical model of control and social learning theories fit the data on alcohol use, heavy alcohol consumption, and use of marijuana. The same model did not explain the use of amphetamines, barbiturates, cocaine or opiates. This study also found that religiosity was a significant influence only on certain forms of drug use, whereas the feedback effect of drug use on religiosity was significant for all forms studied.
