我们研究了 739 名年轻人的自我报告措施与吸毒结果之间的关系。研究目的包括（a）使用潜变量验证分析在多特征-多方法框架中划分吸毒频率、数量、破坏性物质使用（在工作场所和学校）和问题使用的衡量标准；（b）测试吸毒频率和数量是否可以互换，即问题吸毒行为的同等有效的预测因素；（c）一旦控制了特定吸毒行为，评估高阶结构是否可以解释潜在变量之间的关联； (d) 检查毒品负面后果（逮捕和事故）与潜在变量之间的关系。结果支持了假设的潜在因素的结构有效性。尽管高度相关，但吸毒频率和吸毒数量不可互换：数量是破坏性和问题吸毒的更强有力的预测因素。一般药物使用和滥用的二阶因素解释了一阶结构。讨论了青少年和年轻人吸毒之间的差异以及政策影响。人们普遍关注青少年和年轻人使用和滥用酒精、大麻、可卡因和其他硬性毒品。这种担忧存在于研究界、雇主和学校管理人员以及普通民众中。全国调查表明，使用此类物质，特别是酒精和大麻，在当今的高中青少年（Johnston、O'Malley 和 Bachman，1986）和年轻人（Miller 等，1983）中非常普遍。青少年大量或频繁吸毒可能被视为滥用药物的事实证据，因为此类行为可能会干扰他们成年后取得成功所必需的关键应对技能的发展（例如，Newcomb，1987；Newcomb＆Bentler，1988）。此外，对于青少年来说，使用此类物质（包括酒精）是非法的。 Donovan 和 Jessor (1983) 发现，与吸食大麻（一种非法物质）相比，酗酒问题更能表明青少年吸毒程度更高。根据 Guttman 吸毒量表（1944 年），青少年有问题的饮酒者比同时喝酒精饮料的大麻使用者在吸毒程度更高的连续体上走得更远。此外，问题饮酒与从事其他问题行为的倾向有关（例如，Donovan & Jessor，1985）。然而，人们对青少年吸毒情况知之甚少。
We examined relations among self-report measures and outcomes of drug use among 739 young adults. Purposes of the study included (a) partitioning measures of drug use frequency, quantity, disruptive substance use (in the workplace and school), and problem use in a multitrait-multimethod framework using latent-variable confirmatory analysis;(b) testing whether drug use frequency and quantity were interchangeable, equally powerful predictors of problem drug behaviors;(c) evaluating whether higher order constructs explained associations among the latent variables, once specific drug use was controlled; and (d) examining the relations between negative drug consequences (arrests and accidents) and the latent variables. Results supported the construct validity of the hypothesized latent factors. Although highly correlated, Drug Use Frequency and Drug Use Quantity were not interchangeable: Quantity was a more powerful predictor of disruptive and problem drug use. A second-order factor of General Drug Use and Abuse accounted for the first-order constructs. Differences between adolescent and young-adult drug use and policy implications are discussed.There is widespread concern about the use and abuse of alcohol, cannabis, cocaine, and other hard drugs by adolescents and young adults. Such concern exists within the research community, among employers and school administrators, and in the general population. National surveys indicate that use of such substances, especially alcohol and marijuana, is highly prevalent among today's high school adolescents (Johnston, O'Malley, & Bachman, 1986) and young adults (Miller etal., 1983). Heavy or frequent use of drugs by adolescents may be considered de facto evidence for abuse inasmuch as such behaviors may interfere with the development of critical coping skills that are necessary for their success as adults (eg, Newcomb, 1987; Newcomb & Bentler, 1988). Also, use of such substances, including alcohol, is illegal for teenagers. Donovan and Jessor (1983) found that problem drinking was a better indicator of greater drug involvement by teenagers than was use of marijuana, an illicit substance. On a Guttman scale (1944) of drug involvement, adolescent problem drinkers placed further along a continuum of greater drug involvement than did marijuana users who also drank alcoholic beverages. In addition, problem drinking was associated with a tendency to engage in other problem behaviors (eg, Donovan & Jessor, 1985). However, there is less known about drug use among young
