目的：本研究调查了青少年吸食香烟、酒精和大麻的地点和时间。对每种物质的使用地点和时间的年龄、性别和种族差异进行了研究。方法：利用通过全校性骄傲调查收集的横断面数据，一个大都市区 20,055 名 10 至 19 岁的学生（53.6% 为女性，55.1% 为黑人，44.9% 为白人）报告了他们使用香烟、酒精和大麻的频率，以及使用每种物质的地点和时间。卡方检验比较了男孩和女孩每种物质的发生率、地点和时间；黑人和白人学生；以及青少年早期、中期和晚期。结果：与年轻的青少年相比，年龄较大的青少年在朋友家、学校和汽车内使用药物的比例较高，而在家中饮酒的比例较低。男性更有可能报告在学校和工作日晚上使用酒精和大麻以及在汽车中使用酒精，而女性更有可能报告在周末使用酒精和大麻。吸烟时间和地点没有出现性别差异。与黑人青少年相比，白人青少年更有可能在朋友家里和周末使用所有药物；在学校、车内和工作日晚上吸烟；并在家中饮酒。黑人青少年更有可能在家中、学校、车内、上学期间和放学后以及工作日晚上使用酒精，并且更有可能在学校使用大麻。结论：青少年物质使用的地点和时间因年龄、性别和种族的不同而有很大差异。这些差异可能有助于针对特定的青少年亚群制定药物使用预防和干预计划，以提高计划的有效性。 （酒精药物研究杂志，74, 288-300, 2013）
Objective: This study examined the location and time of adolescent use of cigarettes, alcohol, and marijuana. Age, gender, and racial differences in location and time of use were studied for each substance. Method: Using cross-sectional data collected through the school-wide Pride Survey, 20,055 students between the ages of 10 and 19 years (53.6% female, 55.1% Black, 44.9% White) in one metropolitan area reported on their frequency of cigarette, alcohol, and marijuana use, as well as the location and time of use of each substance. Chi-square tests compared the rates, locations, and times for each substance across boys and girls; Black and White students; and early, middle, and late adolescents. Results: Older adolescents reported higher rates of substance use at friends' homes, at school, and in cars and lower rates of alcohol use at home compared with younger youth. Males were more likely to report alcohol and marijuana use at school and on weeknights and alcohol use in cars, whereas females were more likely to report alcohol and marijuana use on the weekends. No gender differences emerged for times and locations of cigarette use. Compared with Black youth, White adolescents were more likely to use all substances at friends' homes and on weekends; to smoke cigarettes at school, in the car, and on weeknights; and to use alcohol at home. Black adolescents were more likely to report using alcohol at home, at school, in cars, during and after school, and on weeknights and were more likely to report using marijuana at school. Conclusions: The location and time of adolescent substance use vary substantially by age, gender, and race. These differences may help tailor substance use prevention and intervention programs to specific subgroups of youth to improve program effectiveness. (J. Stud. Alcohol Drugs, 74, 288-300, 2013)
