本研究考察了青少年吸毒到成年早期的稳定性，并探讨了性格对青少年和成人吸毒的可能影响。这项纵向研究的参与者（N = 640）完成了问卷调查，评估了烟草、酒精、大麻和硬性毒品的潜在结构以及社会化的人格结构的多个指标。此外，还检查了服从和外向性的影响。结果表明，青春期的一般药物使用因素可显着预测年轻人的药物使用情况。注意到青少年服从对成人吸毒的特殊影响。在青春期，服从、外向和社会化的构建是吸毒的重要预测因素。早期吸烟预示着青少年吸毒。讨论了这些发现对早期吸毒教育和干预的影响。其他分析探讨了将服从视为社会化另一个指标的可能性。该模型无法提供与原始模型一样好的拟合度。与社会化的整体因素相比，服从的衡量标准可以更好地预测吸毒情况。讨论了性别差异。
This study examined the stability of adolescent drug use into young adulthood and explored the possible influence of personality on adolescent and adult drug use. Participants in this longitudinal study (N = 640) completed questionnaires which assessed multiple indicators for latent constructs of tobacco, alcohol, cannabis, and hard drugs, and also for the personality constructs of Socialization. In addition, the effects of obedience and extraversion were examined. Results showed that a general drug use factor in adolescence significantly predicted young adult drug use. A particular effect of adolescent obedience on adult drug use was noted. Within adolescence, obedience, extraversion, and the construct of Socialization were significant predictors of drug use. Early onset of smoking predicted adolescent drug use. The implications of these findings for early drug use education and intervention are discussed. Additional analysis explored the possibility of treating obedience as another indicator of Socialization. This model could not provide as good a fit as the original model. The measure of obedience acted as a better predictor of drug use than an overall factor of Socialization. Gender differences are discussed.
