Abstract

Sixty-two secondary school students were observed in their classrooms over 5 weeks of intensive drug information for within-group changes in their perceptions. "Peer pressure" and "kicks" were cited as reasons for starting and using drugs; but peer pressure had relatively greater strength for girls than for boys, and curiosity increased for girls. Boys and girls differed in reasons for stopping drugs (peer and professional help for girls, and punishment for boys). In rating the relative dangers and pleasures of marijuana and heroin, most students did not discriminate effectively between the two drugs, although ratings of marijuana dangers decreased. Unexpectedly, responses concerning the health hazards of heroin did not increase. In a situation simulating risk under peer pressure, boys chose targets as appropriate for their skill as did the girls.

摘要

在为期5周的密集毒品信息课程中，对62名中学生在教室里的情况进行了观察，以了解他们在群体内部认知方面的变化。“同伴压力”和“刺激感”被引述为开始吸毒和使用毒品的原因；但同伴压力对女孩的影响相对大于男孩，女孩的好奇心有所增加。男孩和女孩在戒毒原因上存在差异（女孩是同伴和专业帮助，男孩是惩罚）。在对大麻和海洛因的相对危险性和愉悦感进行评级时，大多数学生没有有效地区分这两种毒品，尽管对大麻危险性的评级有所下降。出乎意料的是，关于海洛因健康危害的回答并没有增加。在模拟同伴压力下的风险情境中，男孩和女孩都根据自己的技能选择了合适的目标。
