背景：希望与成人治疗保留率的提高和药物滥用的减少有关，并且可能是药物滥用治疗环境中一个有希望的可改变因素。很少有研究评估青少年，尤其是具有高风险背景的青少年的希望与药物滥用之间的关系。目的：我们探讨了在边缘化青少年样本中，高希望是否与参与各种物质使用行为的可能性较小有关。方法：使用逻辑回归，我们评估了一项横断面匿名青少年行为调查（n = 256 名青少年，年龄 14 至 19 岁）的结果。我们从当地的青少年服务机构（例如无家可归者收容所、集体之家、短期拘留）招募人员。结果：样本中几乎 60% 是男性，三分之二是非裔美国人。未经调整的模型显示，拥有更高希望的年轻人有 50-58% (p =
Background: Hopefulness has been associated with increased treatment retention and reduced substance abuse among adults, and may be a promising modifiable factor to leverage in substance abuse treatment settings. Few studies have assessed the relationship between hopefulness and substance use in adolescents, particularly those with high-risk backgrounds. Objective: We explored whether high hope is associated with less likelihood for engaging in a variety of substance use behaviors in a sample of marginalized adolescents. Methods: Using logistic regression, we assessed results from a cross-sectional anonymous youth behavior survey (n = 256 youth, ages 14 to 19). We recruited from local youth serving agencies (e.g., homeless shelters, group homes, short-term detention). Results: The sample was almost 60% male and two thirds African American. Unadjusted models showed youth with higher hope had a 50-58% (p =
