本研究涉及目前使用的11年级学生的17种精神活性物质和年龄的第一次使用和中毒的高中，他们就读的特点。2471名11年级的学生被调查，他们就读于加州44所具有代表性的高中。基于12个特征的学校之间的相关性（12年级总成绩，SES，各种族群体的百分比等）采用完全连锁聚类分析方法进行分析。确定了三组学校。使用酒精，大麻，可卡因和其他物质的频率，以及多种药物的使用和首次饮酒的年龄被发现在不同的集群学校之间有显着差异。一般来说，药物使用在农村或小城镇最高，主要是白色高中，入学率相对较低，第二高的大型，高社会经济地位，主要是白色学校，最低的大型，低社会经济地位，主要是少数民族高中。本研究提出四项假设，探讨学校特质与物质使用的关系。
This research relates current use by 11th grade students of 17 psychoactive substances and age of first use and intoxication to characteristics of high school in which they are enrolled. The 2, 471 11th grade students surveyed were enrolled in a representative sample of 44 California high schools. Correlations between schools based on twelve characteristics (total 12th grade achievement scores, SES, percent various ethnic groups, etc.) were analyzed by means of a complete linkage cluster analysis. Three clusters of schools were identified. Frequency of use of alcohol, marijuana, cocaine, and other substances as well as polydrug use and age of first alcohol use were found to differ significantly between schools in different clusters. In general, substance use was highest in rural or small town, predominantly white high schools with relatively low enrollments, second highest in large, high SES, predominantly white schools, and lowest in large, low SES, predominantly minority high schools. Four hypothesis relating school characteristics and substance use suggested by these findings are proposed.
