使用的数据来自一项研究的高风险青少年在南加州，美国（N = 851），本研究探讨了协同作用的社会网络措施的社会融合和同伴的影响，在过去一个月的吸烟。使用分层线性模型，结果表明，在所有研究模型中，在网络中处于中心位置与过去一个月的吸烟量显著正相关。此外，有适度的证据表明，回报的友谊关系的数量与过去一个月的吸烟量呈正相关。也有一些适度的证据表明，具有互惠友谊和过去一个月吸烟之间的关系受到网络同伴影响过程的调节，与年轻人最好的朋友网络中的人一起吸烟。研究结果表明，被整合在一个社会网络环境中的同龄人的影响，有利于药物的使用涉及到更多的吸烟，这些高风险的青年。(C)2012爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
Using data from a study of high risk adolescents in Southern California, USA (N = 851), this study examined synergy between social network measures of social integration and peer influence in relation to past month cigarette smoking. Using Hierarchical Linear Modeling, results indicated that being central in networks was significantly and positively related to past month cigarette smoking, across all study models. In addition, there is modest evidence that the number of reciprocated friendship ties was positively related to past month cigarette smoking. There is also some modest evidence that the relationship between having reciprocated friendships and past month cigarette smoking was moderated by a network peer influence process, smoking with those in youths' best friend networks. Findings indicate that being integrated within a social network context of peer influences favoring drug use relates to more smoking among these high risk youth. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd.
