在457名9至17岁的墨西哥裔美国儿童和青少年中研究了吸入剂、大麻和酒精滥用的患病率。受访者居住在位于东洛杉矶的四个住房项目。所有访谈均由居住在同一住房项目的青少年进行。结果表明，与全国样本相比，墨西哥裔美国青少年目前滥用吸入剂的可能性至少高出14倍。大麻的流行率是全国流行率的两倍，但酒精的流行率与全国相同。药物滥用率升高的原因进行了探讨。
Prevalence of inhalant, marijuana, and alcohol abuse was studied in a sample of 457 male and female Mexican-American children and adolescents between the ages of 9 and 17 years. Subjects interviewed resided in four housing projects located in East Los Angeles. All interviews were conducted by adolescents who resided in the same housing projects. Results indicated that compared to a national sample, Mexican-American adolescents were at least 14 times more likely to be currently abusing inhalants. The prevalence rate of marijuana was double the national rate, but the prevalence of alcohol was equal to that found nationally. Reasons for elevated substance abuse rates are explored.
