这项研究比较了联邦资助的两项主要的青少年药物使用调查，并评估了方法差异对其产生的流行率估计的影响。监测未来调查是一项以学校为基础的调查，它与全国家庭药物滥用调查（一项针对 12 岁及以上人口的家庭调查）进行了比较。由于学校调查的拒绝率较高，家庭调查的答复率较高。学校调查的总体样本量较大，但由于学校调查的设计效应较大，抽样误差比预期的更相似。学校调查中获得的吸毒率高于家庭调查，这可能是因为家庭环境中的漏报率高于课堂，以及两项调查中使用的调查问卷不同。 (C) 1997 爱思唯尔科学爱尔兰有限公司
This study compared two major Federally sponsored surveys of adolescent substance use and assessed the impact that methodological differences have on the prevalence estimates they generate. The Monitoring the Future Survey, a school-based survey, was compared to the National Household Survey on Drug Abuse, a household survey of the population aged 12 years and older. Response rates were higher in the household survey due to high rates of refusal in the school based survey. The school survey has a larger overall sample size, but sampling errors more similar than one might expect, because of the larger design effects in the school survey. Rates of drug use obtained were larger in the school survey than in the household survey, possibly because of greater under-reporting in the household setting than in the classroom and the different questionnaires used in the two surveys.
