With a population of 78 residents from a residential drug program and 79 residents from a shelter for runaways, this study examined the Rational Behavior Inventory's ability to predict two forms of adolescent maladjustment--drug use and running away. Specific belief systems were found to be differentially associated with each disorder. In addition, gender differences along two belief dimensions of the RBI were found in the drug abuse population. The importance of belief systems as mediating cognitive factors in both running away and drug use also is discussed.
这项研究以一个戒毒项目中的78名居民和一个 runaway收容所中的79名居民为对象，考察了理性行为量表预测青少年两种适应不良形式——吸毒和离家出走的能力。研究发现特定的信念系统与每种障碍存在不同程度的关联。此外，在吸毒人群中还发现了理性行为量表两个信念维度上的性别差异。文章还讨论了信念系统作为认知因素在离家出走和吸毒行为中所起的中介作用的重要性。 （注：这里“runaway”直译为“离家出走者”，但结合语境推测“a shelter for runaways”可能是收容离家出走青少年的庇护所，不过按照要求不添加额外解释，保留原文翻译形式。）
