背景：吸烟和吸食大麻在青少年中非常流行，两者之间的合并症发生率很高，甚至在成年早期也是如此。父母的支持和控制可能会通过在青少年中推广传统价值观来阻碍他们使用这些物质。目的：本研究探讨家庭功能（父母的支持和控制）与精神活性物质使用（吸烟和吸食大麻）之间的关系，并确定这些关系是否受个人价值观（不赞成越轨行为和对学校、健康和宗教重要性的信念）的调节。方法：175名意大利晚期青少年（17 - 20岁）参与了这项双波纵向研究。数据是在学校通过匿名问卷收集的。结果：更多的父母控制和支持与青少年更低的烟草和大麻使用率直接相关；青少年对传统价值观的接受程度在父母教养与青少年使用大麻之间起到中介作用。结论：研究结果强调了家庭关系对青少年的影响。向青少年传递传统价值观可能是父母保护青少年远离物质使用，尤其是大麻使用的关键机制。
Background: Tobacco andmarijuana smoking are very popular in adolescence and there is a high rate of comorbidity between them, even in young adulthood. Parental support and control may hinder involvement in the use of these substances by promoting conventional values among adolescents. Objectives: The present study investigates the relations between family functioning (parental support and control) and psychoactive substance use (tobacco and marijuana smoking) and determines whether these relationships are mediated by personal values (in terms of disapproval of deviance and beliefs about the importance of school, health and religion). Methods: 175 Italian late adolescents (17 to 20 years old) participated in this two-wave longitudinal study. Data were collected at school through an anonymous questionnaire. Results: Greater parental control and support were directly associated with lower adolescent tobacco andmarijuana use; adolescent acceptance of conventional values mediated the association between parenting and adolescent marijuana use. Conclusion: Findings emphasize the influence of family relationships throughout adolescence. The transmission of conventional values to adolescents may be a critical mechanism through which parenting protects adolescents from substance use, especially marijuana use.
