改变药物使用的动机被认为是预测顾客是否愿意接受酒精和其他药物治疗的最重要的预测因素之一。加强改变药物使用的动机是许多药物使用干预计划的重要重点。预测改变药物使用动机的具体因素在很大程度上仍未被识别和了解，特别是在少数民族青年中。本研究考察了310名饮酒和/或吸毒的少数族裔青少年男性中青少年和父母因素对改变药物使用动机的影响。与青少年物质使用和外化障碍的研究结果一样，研究结果对种族/少数民族青年的治疗也有影响，因为父母因素可能是旨在增强这些高危青年减少药物使用的动机的干预措施的特别有用的目标(C)2010年Elsevier Inc.保留所有权利
Motivation to change substance use is considered to be one of the most important predictors of client readiness for alcohol and other drug treatment and ability to benefit from treatment Enhancing motivation to change substance use is an important emphasis of many substance use intervention programs The specific factors predicting motivation to change substance use remain largely unidentified and poorly understood, particularly among racial/ethnic minority youth This study examines the influence of adolescent and parental factors on motivation to change substance use among 310 alcohol-using and/or drug-using racial/ethnic minority adolescent males The analytic plan involved the use of structural equation modeling Adolescents motivation to change substance use was influenced directly and indirectly by parental factors, as well as by adolescent substance use seventy and externalizing disorders Findings have implications for treatment with racial/ethnic minority youth, as parental factors may be exceptionally useful targets for interventions aimed at enhancing motivation to reduce substance use among these at-risk youth (c) 2010 Elsevier Inc All rights reserved
