大多数药物滥用预防研究都是以白色中产阶级青少年人口为主进行的。本研究在纽约市29所学校的少数民族学生（N = 3，621）样本中测试了以学校为基础的药物滥用预防干预。预防计划教授拒绝毒品的技能，反毒品规范，个人自我管理技能和一般的社会技能，努力为学生提供抵制毒品提供的技能和信息，以减少使用毒品的动机，并减少易受毒品使用的社会影响。结果表明，接受该计划的人（n = 2，144）报告吸烟，饮酒，醉酒，吸入剂使用和多种药物使用相对于对照组（n = 1，477）较少。该计划也有一个直接的积极影响几个认知，态度和人格变量被认为在青少年物质使用中发挥作用。中介分析表明，一些药物使用的结果的预防效果介导的风险承担，行为意图，和同行规范的期望有关药物使用的一部分。这项研究的结果表明，最初为白色中产阶级青少年人口设计的药物滥用预防计划在少数民族，经济困难，市中心青少年的样本中是有效的。
Most drug abuse prevention research has been conducted with predominantly White middle-class adolescent populations. The present study tested a school-based drug abuse preventive intervention in a sample of predominantly minority students (N = 3,621) in 29 New York City schools. The prevention program taught drug refusal skills, antidrug norms, personal self-management skills, and general social skills in an effort to provide students with skills and information for resisting drug offers, to decrease motivations to use drugs, and decrease vulnerability to drug use social influences. Results indicated that those who received the program (n = 2,144) reported less smoking, drinking, drunkenness, inhalant use, and polydrug use relative to controls (n = 1,477). The program also had a direct positive effect on several cognitive, attitudinal, and personality variables believed to play a role in adolescent substance use. Mediational analyses showed that prevention effects on some drug use outcomes were mediated in part by risk-taking, behavioral intentions, and peer normative expectations regarding drug use. The findings from this study show that a drug abuse prevention program originally designed for White middle-class adolescent populations is effective in a sample of minority, economically disadvantaged, inner-city adolescents.
