Compared the competing simplex (involvement) and common factor models for youthful drug use using causal modeling with latent variables methods with 1,634 students in Grades 7–9. Latent variables of alcohol, marihuana, and other illicit drug use were confirmed and causally interconnected in a set of states. The confirmatory factor and the simplex stage models were found to be acceptable representations of the observed data according to both statistical and psychometric criteria. Results are discussed in terms of their implications for theories of emerging life-styles including drug use, methodology, and policy about psychoactive substances.(44 ref)(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2023 APA, all rights reserved)
