An alternatives-oriented, school-based drug abuse prevention program, Positive Alternatives for Youth (PAY), was evaluated over a 2-year period. Using a random-assignment, pretest-posttest control group design, 135 PAY students and 106 control group students were assessed on several attitudinal and behavioral measures of drug use. During the first year significant differences were detected between PAY and control students. Fewer differences were found in the second year, although a special analysis showed evidence of impact on PAY students rated as more involved in program activities. Reasons for specific results are discussed and implications are drawn for the alternatives approach and the field of drug abuse prevention.
一项以替代方案为导向的、基于学校的药物滥用预防项目——“青少年积极替代方案”（PAY），在两年时间里接受了评估。采用随机分配、前后测控制组设计，对135名参与PAY项目的学生和106名控制组学生进行了几项关于药物使用的态度和行为指标评估。在第一年，PAY项目学生和控制组学生之间发现了显著差异。第二年发现的差异较少，不过一项专项分析显示，该项目对那些被评定为更多参与项目活动的PAY学生产生了影响。文中讨论了具体结果的原因，并就替代方案方法和药物滥用预防领域得出了相关结论。
