In this investigation, two indicators of high school educational success (grade point average and college plans) were examined to determine their influence on cigarette, alcohol, and illicit drug use during the transition to young adulthood. Panel data were obtained from the 1978-81 Monitoring the Future nationally representative samples of high school seniors. The sample for this analysis included 3,399 White respondents (weighted cases) followed three to four years post-high school. Structural equation models that included background and mediating characteristics were developed and tested using LISREL VII. Consistent with a selection hypothesis, high school GPA had a negative indirect effect on post-high school substance use that operated largely via senior-year substance use. College plans during high school had a similar negative effect on post-high school cigarette use, but consistent with a differential-socialization hypothesis, they had a positive indirect effect on post-high school alcohol use that operated primarily via student and marital status during young adulthood. College plans had no impact on post-high school illicit drug use.
在这项调查中,研究了高中教育成功的两个指标(平均绩点和大学规划),以确定它们在向青年期过渡期间对吸烟、饮酒和非法药物使用的影响。面板数据取自1978 - 1981年对全国具有代表性的高中毕业生样本进行的“未来监测”。本次分析的样本包括3399名白人受访者(加权案例),跟踪他们高中毕业后三到四年的情况。使用LISREL VII开发并测试了包含背景和中介特征的结构方程模型。与选择假设一致,高中平均绩点对高中毕业后的物质使用有负面间接影响,这种影响主要通过高中最后一年的物质使用起作用。高中期间的大学规划对高中毕业后的吸烟行为有类似的负面影响,但与差异社会化假设一致,它们对高中毕业后的饮酒行为有正面间接影响,这种影响主要通过青年期的学生和婚姻状况起作用。大学规划对高中毕业后的非法药物使用没有影响。
