This article examines relationships between local drug policy (as represented by prosecutor-reported case outcomes for first-offender juvenile marijuana possession cases) and youth self-reported marijuana use, perceived risk, and disapproval. Interviews with prosecutors and surveys of 8th-, 10th-, and 12th-grade students in the United States were conducted in 2000. Analyses include data from 97 prosecutors and students from 127 schools in 40 states. Results indicate significant relationships between local drug policy and youth marijuana use and attitudes. In general, more-severe dispositions are associated with less marijuana use, higher disapproval rates, and increased perceptions of great risk. Associations primarily appear to be specific to marijuana-related outcomes. Results are discussed within the framework of both deterrence and broader social norms regarding substance use.
本文研究了地方毒品政策（以检察官报告的初犯青少年持有大麻案件的案件结果为代表）与青少年自我报告的大麻使用情况、感知风险和不赞成态度之间的关系。2000年，对美国检察官进行了访谈，并对八年级、十年级和十二年级的学生进行了调查。分析数据来自97名检察官以及40个州127所学校的学生。结果表明，地方毒品政策与青少年大麻使用情况及态度之间存在显著关系。总体而言，更严厉的处置方式与较少的大麻使用、更高的不赞成率以及对巨大风险的认知增加相关。这些关联主要似乎特定于与大麻相关的结果。本文在威慑以及关于药物使用的更广泛社会规范的框架内对研究结果进行了讨论。
