To examine the relationship between parent education, at individual- and school-level, and substance use behaviors (smoking, alcohol drinking, binge drinking, and illicit drug use) among young adolescents from Argentina and Mexico.
A cross-sectional, school-based survey of middle-school early adolescents from Mexico (N=10,123) and Argentina (N=3,172) queried substance use.
After adjusting for age, sex and individual-level parent education, students from Mexican schools with lower parent education had higher likelihood of current smoking and drug use than those from schools with higher parent education. In Argentina, lower parent education at school-level was positively associated with all outcomes.
Disadvantageous contextual school characteristics contributes to substance use among early adolescents in Mexico and Argentina.
研究阿根廷和墨西哥青少年个体层面及学校层面的家长教育程度与物质使用行为(吸烟、饮酒、暴饮和非法药物使用)之间的关系。
对来自墨西哥(N = 10123)和阿根廷(N = 3172)的初中早期青少年进行基于学校的横断面调查,询问物质使用情况。
在调整年龄、性别和个体层面的家长教育程度后,家长教育程度较低的墨西哥学校的学生当前吸烟和吸毒的可能性高于家长教育程度较高的学校的学生。在阿根廷,学校层面较低的家长教育程度与所有结果均呈正相关。
不利的学校环境特征导致墨西哥和阿根廷早期青少年的物质使用。
