This investigation tests the ability of Akers'' social learning theory of deviance to account for the cessation of alcohol or drug use among adolescents. For each of 5 substances, 2-group discriminant function analyses showed that social learning variables were successful in discriminating adolescents who ceased using from their counterparts who continued to use. Peer associations were generally most discriminating with normative definitions and social rewards or punishments also contributing to differentiation. Positive or negative effects of the substances as well as imitation bore little relationship to cessation. Social learning theory was as explanatory for stronger drugs as it was for alcohol and marihuana. Policy and program implications are suggested.
