Examination of the correlates of methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) use is crucial for the development and implementation of effective prevention programs for adolescents. The aim of the present study was therefore to identify the family, peer and individual factors that were related to MDMA use in Taiwanese adolescents. Two hundred adolescents who used MDMA and 200 who did not use MDMA were recruited into the study. The family, peer and individual factors related to MDMA use were examined using chi(2) automatic interaction detection (CHAID) analysis. The results indicated that the adolescents who had more friends involved with substance use, disruptive family and attitude favoring MDMA use were more likely to use MDMA. Multiple factors of family, peer and individuals were related to MDMA use among Taiwanese adolescents. This knowledge may be helpful when designing and implementing preventive intervention programs.
研究亚甲基二氧甲基苯丙胺(摇头丸)使用的相关因素对于制定和实施针对青少年的有效预防计划至关重要。因此,本研究的目的是确定与台湾青少年摇头丸使用相关的家庭、同伴和个人因素。该研究招募了200名使用摇头丸的青少年和200名不使用摇头丸的青少年。使用卡方自动交互检测(CHAID)分析来研究与摇头丸使用相关的家庭、同伴和个人因素。结果表明,有更多涉毒朋友、家庭关系破裂以及对使用摇头丸持赞成态度的青少年更有可能使用摇头丸。家庭、同伴和个人的多种因素与台湾青少年摇头丸的使用有关。这些知识在设计和实施预防性干预计划时可能会有所帮助。
