青少年被拘留者是从事高风险行为的群体。本研究探讨性风险和物质使用行为和非裔美国女性青少年被拘留者（N = 765）的看法，酒精和大麻的使用对他们的社会和性行为的影响。总体而言，分别有58%和64%的人报告使用酒精和大麻。酒精对性行为的影响（p <0.001）在饮酒和不饮酒的人之间存在显著差异;大麻对社交（p <0.01）和性（p <0.001）行为的影响在使用大麻和不使用大麻的人之间存在显著差异。有必要进一步研究药物使用对非裔美国女性青少年被拘留者的社会和性行为的影响。
Juvenile detainees comprise a population that engages in high-risk behavior. This study examined sexual risk and substance use behavior and the perceptions of African American female adolescent detainees (N = 765) regarding the influence of alcohol and marijuana use on their social and sexual behaviors. Overall, 58% and 64% reported alcohol and marijuana use, respectively. Alcohol's perceived influence on sexual behavior (p < .001) was significantly different between those who drank and those who did not; marijuana's influence on social (p < .01) and sexual (p < .001) behavior was significantly different between those who used marijuana and those who did not. There is a need for further study of the influence of substance use on social and sexual behavior among African American female adolescent detainees.
