过渡年龄青年（TAY），从青春期到成年期的发展，表现出任何其他年龄组的酒精和其他药物使用水平最高。风险因素反映了青少年问题和障碍的发展。在社区中对大学生和非大学生高危TAY进行早期筛查是早期有效干预的关键。使用动机技巧的简短干预对许多TAY是有效的，特别是对那些在大学校园中处于问题使用早期阶段的人。与TAY接触的专业人员应了解社区中物质使用障碍的循证干预措施和提供者。
Transitional age youth (TAY), developing from adolescence to adulthood, exhibit the highest level of alcohol and other drug use of any other age group. Risk factors mirror those for the development of problems and disorders in adolescents. Early screening of both college students and noncollege high-risk TAY in the community is critical to early and effective intervention. Brief interventions using motivational techniques are effective for many TAY, particularly for those in early stages of problem use on college campuses. Professionals in contact with TAY should be aware of evidence-based interventions and providers for substance use disorders in the community.
