African-Americans and Puerto Ricans were interviewed during adolescence, in their early twenties, and then again in their mid-twenties. Results indicated that earlier adolescent smoking, family conflict, and weak ethnic identity were significantly related to antisocial behavior, which in turn was related to associating with friends who smoked and/or used illegal drugs, and ultimately, to their own smoking. Results further indicate that early interventions in the development of tobacco use should focus on decreasing parental and adolescent smoking and parent-child conflict. If intervention occurs at a later time point, the emphasis should be on increasing ethnic identity and decreasing antisocial behavior. (Am J Addict 2010;00:1-9).
非裔美国人和波多黎各人在青少年时期、二十出头和二十多岁中期接受了采访。结果表明，青少年早期吸烟、家庭冲突和较弱的种族认同感与反社会行为显著相关，而反社会行为又与吸烟和/或使用非法药物的朋友交往有关，最终导致他们自己也吸烟。研究结果还表明，早期干预烟草使用的重点应该放在减少父母和青少年吸烟以及减少父母与青少年的冲突上。如果干预发生在稍后的时间点，重点应该放在增强种族认同感和减少反社会行为上。
