利用1994年全国青年纵向调查的数据,本文提出了一个公共卫生模型的酒精浓度和随之而来的后果,青少年。我们使用路径分析,以检查代理(饮料的选择),主机(个人特征)和环境(饮酒的背景)的影响,对酒精强度的指数和三个因素为基础的指标酒精相关的后果。我们的分析表明,男性、开始饮酒的青少年年龄较小,而年龄较大的青少年饮酒强度更大。同样,在私人场合喝酒的青少年,认为他们的大多数朋友都是饮酒者,并且喜欢啤酒而不是其他饮料,往往会喝得更激烈。无论其他预测因素如何,在私人环境中饮酒也是导致失控和学校/工作问题的一个因素。预防实践和未来的研究提供了启示。[文章副本可从霍沃斯文件传递服务收费:1-800-342-9678。电子邮件地址:网站:(C)2001年由霍沃斯出版社,公司。保留所有权利。
Using data from the 1994 National Longitudinal Survey of Youth, this paper presents a public health model of alcohol intensity and attendant consequences among adolescents. We use path analyses to examine the influence of agent (beverage of choice), host (individual characteristics), and environment (contexts of drinking) on an index of alcohol intensity and three factor-based indexes of alcohol-related consequences. Our analyses suggest that males, adolescents who begin drinking at a younger age, and older adolescents drink with more intensity. Similarly, teenagers that drink in private contexts, perceive the majority of their friends to be drinkers, and prefer beer over other beverages tend to drink more intensely. Drinking in private contexts is also a contributing factor to Loss of Control and School/Work Problems regardless of other predictors. Implications for prevention practice and future research are offered. [Article copies available for a fee from The Haworth Document Delivery Service: 1-800-342-9678.
