Subst Use Misuse. 2018 Jul 29;53(9):1468-1481. doi: 10.1080/10826084.2017.1413392. Epub 2018 Jan 9.
Trends in abstaining from substance use and delinquency among adolescent's ages 12-17 in the United States was examined.
Data was derived from the National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH) involving non-Hispanic white, African American, and Hispanic respondents (n = 98,620) and spanning the years 2002-2014. Logistic regression was used to examine significance of trend year and correlates of low-risk and high-risk behavioral groups relative to abstaining.
Overall, the prevalence of abstaining was 47.56% between 2002 and 2014. Prevalence increased significantly among all adolescents from 44.85% in 2002 to 53.58% in 2014. Relative to abstainers nonabstaining youth were more likely to be male, and report lower household income, poorer grades, depression, and lower levels of parental affirmation and control.
Findings indicate that there is a corresponding increase in abstaining mirroring the recent decreases found in adolescent drug use found in national surveys.
对美国12至17岁青少年的物质使用戒除及犯罪趋势进行了研究。
数据来源于全国药物使用和健康调查（NSDUH），涉及非西班牙裔白人、非裔美国人和西班牙裔受访者（n = 98,620），时间跨度为2002年至2014年。采用逻辑回归分析来检验趋势年份的显著性以及相对于戒除而言低风险和高风险行为组的相关因素。
总体而言，2002年至2014年间戒除的患病率为47.56%。所有青少年的患病率从2002年的44.85%显著上升至2014年的53.58%。与戒除者相比，非戒除青少年更可能为男性，且报告家庭收入较低、成绩较差、有抑郁情绪以及父母的肯定和控制水平较低。
研究结果表明，戒除现象相应增加，这与全国调查中发现的青少年药物使用近期减少情况相呼应。
