本研究探讨了物质使用和精神和宗教参与之间的关系，在美国西南部的农村青年的多元文化样本。Logistic回归被用来确定灵性和宗教参与的功效，作为从不使用酒精，大麻和硬性药物的预测因子。虽然宗教活动的参与程度越高，从不使用酒精的可能性就越大，但精神信仰的增加则预示着从不使用大麻和硬性毒品的可能性也越大。文章最后讨论了这些研究结果对预防计划，社会工作教育和研究的影响。
This study explored the relationship between substance use and spirituality and religious participation with a multicultural sample of rural youths in the American Southwest. Logistic regression was used to determine the efficacy of spirituality and religious participation as predictors of never using alcohol, marijuana, and hard drugs. Although increased participation in religious activities predicted greater probability of never using alcohol, increased spirituality predicted greater probability of never using marijuana and hard drugs. The article concludes with a discussion of the implications of these findings for prevention programs, social work education, and research.
