Objective.本研究介绍了发展和初步验证的调查重点是最突出的情况下，药物和/或酒精提供给夏威夷土著青年在农村社区。设计该研究采用了五个阶段的方法来测试开发和验证。在第1阶段（项目生成），调查项目是从一系列重点小组与中学年龄的青年（n=47）。在第2阶段（项目细化和选择），编辑项目并将其减少到62种药物提供情况，选择这些情况纳入调查。在第三阶段（项目减少），项目管理的249名青年从七个初中或高中在夏威夷。结果夏威夷原住民子样本（n=194）的探索性因素分析表明，存在三个因素占63%的方差：同伴压力（23%）;家庭提供和上下文（21%）;和意外的药物提供（19%）。调查项目区分夏威夷和非夏威夷青年受访者，支持问卷的有效性。文化联系和药物暴露之间的假设关系没有得到证实。该措施的内部一致性很高。结论.这项调查有助于填补与夏威夷土著青年吸毒有关的信息方面的差距，并对制定和评估针对这些青年的特定文化的毒品预防方案产生影响。
Objective. This study describes the development and preliminary validation of a survey focused on the most salient situations where drugs and/or alcohol are offered to Native Hawaiian youth in rural communities. Design. The study used a five-phase approach to test development and validation. In Phase 1 (item generation), survey items were created from a series of focus groups with middle school aged youth (n=47). In Phase 2 (item refinement and selection), items were edited and reduced to 62 drug-offer situations that were selected for inclusion in the survey. In Phase 3 (item reduction), items were administered to 249 youth from seven middle or intermediate schools in Hawai'i. Results. Exploratory factor analysis of the Native Hawaiian subsample (n=194) indicated the presence of three factors accounting for 63% of the variance: peer pressure (23%); family offers and context (21%); and unanticipated drug offers (19%). The survey items differentiated between Hawaiian and non-Hawaiian youth respondents, supporting the validity of the questionnaire. The hypothesized relationship between cultural connectedness and drug offer exposure was not confirmed. Internal consistency of the measure was high. Conclusions. The survey helps to fill the gap in information related to drug use of Native Hawaiian youth and has implications for the development and assessment of culturally-specific drug prevention programs for these youth.
