The authors examined coping in the adolescent children of drug-abusing fathers who have, or are at risk for contracting, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). The ability to cope is an important factor in the adolescent's own risk behaviors, including drug use and associated problems. Each father and his adolescent child were separately administered a structured interview regarding personality, drug use, relationships, coping, and other behaviors. Adolescent adaptive coping was found to be related to greater conventionality, less marijuana use, fewer intra- and interpersonal problems, paternal adaptive coping, and a close father-child bond. Moreover, analysis using a risk factor index indicated an exponential increase in adolescent maladaptive coping with each additional psychosocial risk. Implications for policy and intervention are also discussed.
作者研究了父亲滥用药物且已感染或有感染人类免疫缺陷病毒（HIV）风险的青少年子女的应对方式。应对能力是青少年自身风险行为（包括吸毒及相关问题）中的一个重要因素。分别对每位父亲及其青少年子女进行了关于性格、吸毒、人际关系、应对方式及其他行为的结构化访谈。研究发现，青少年的适应性应对方式与更高的传统性、更少的大麻使用、更少的内部和人际问题、父亲的适应性应对方式以及紧密的父子关系有关。此外，使用风险因素指数进行的分析表明，每增加一项社会心理风险，青少年的适应不良应对方式就会呈指数级增加。文中还讨论了对政策和干预措施的启示。
