Subst Use Misuse. 2014 Jan 1;49(1-2):116-123. doi: 10.3109/10826084.2013.824468. Epub 2013 Aug 23.
Data from the California Healthy Kids Survey of 7th, 9th, and 11th graders were used to identify latent classes/clusters of alcohol, tobacco, and marijuana use (N = 418,702). Analyses revealed four latent classes of substance use, which included nonusers (61.1%), alcohol experimenters (some recent alcohol use; 22.8%), mild polysubstance users (lifetime use of all substances with less than 3 days of recent use; 9.2%), and frequent polysubstance users (used all substances three or more times in the past month; 6.9%). The results revealed that alcohol and marijuana use are salient to California adolescents. This information can be used to target and tailor school-based prevention efforts.
来自加利福尼亚健康儿童调查中7年级、9年级和11年级学生的数据被用于识别酒精、烟草和大麻使用的潜在类别/群组(N = 418,702)。分析揭示了四类物质使用的潜在类别,包括不使用者(61.1%)、酒精尝试者(近期有一些酒精使用;22.8%)、轻度多物质使用者(所有物质的终生使用且近期使用少于3天;9.2%)以及频繁多物质使用者(过去一个月内使用所有物质三次或更多次;6.9%)。结果显示酒精和大麻使用对加利福尼亚青少年来说较为突出。这些信息可用于针对并调整基于学校的预防工作。
