To explore what mediates relationships between coping styles and substance use, different types of coping, proximal precursors of substance use, and reported substance use/intentions to use were examined in a study of low income, urban, high school freshmen from American ethnic minority groups. Regression analyses showed evidence for two mediators. The relationship between a tendency to depend upon parents to cope with problems and increased substance use was mediated by lowered perceptions of harm from use. The relationship between a tendency to use substances to cope with problems and increased substance use was mediated by increased tolerance for and use by friends.
为了探究应对方式与物质使用之间的关系是如何被中介影响的，这项针对美国少数民族低收入城市高中生的研究分别考察了不同类型的应对方式、物质使用的近期前因变量以及报告的物质使用/使用意向。回归分析显示有两种中介作用的证据。倾向于依靠父母来应对问题与增加物质使用之间的关系受到使用所带来的危害感知降低的中介影响。倾向于使用物质来应对问题与增加物质使用之间的关系受到对朋友的容忍度和使用度增加的中介影响。
