Parent and adolescent self-reports are the most common sources for measuring parenting practices. This study's purpose was to compare how parent and adolescent reports of parenting behaviors differentially predict adolescent gateway drug use. The sample consisted of 252 Latino adolescent-parent dyads. After controlling for potential confounding influences, only adolescents' reports about their parents' parenting behaviors were significant and explained 38% of the variance in gateway drug use. Practitioners may recommend to parents seeking parenting advice that they solicit feedback from their adolescent to ensure parenting efforts are received in the manner they were intended.
父母和青少年的自我报告是衡量养育方式最常见的来源。本研究的目的是比较父母和青少年对养育行为的报告如何不同地预测青少年使用入门毒品的情况。样本包括252对拉丁裔青少年-父母二元组。在控制了潜在的混杂影响后，只有青少年关于其父母养育行为的报告具有显著性，并解释了入门毒品使用差异的38%。从业者可能会向寻求养育建议的父母推荐，他们应征求青少年的反馈，以确保养育努力能按预期方式被接受。
