这项研究有三个主要目标。 一是 确定大麻和可卡因使用对婚姻的影响， 年轻人的离婚率。 第二是检查大麻是否 和可卡因的使用是与成为一个 单亲 三是考察了 大麻和可卡因的使用，以及参与援助家庭， 受抚养儿童（AFDC）计划。 这三个目标紧密相连， 由于个人的婚姻和婚姻之间的密切联系， 生育计划，以及这些变量对AFDC参与的影响。 这个项目的主要目的是提供新的信息 关于最常用的各类非法药物在多大程度上 毒品正在影响家庭结构。 家庭在以下方面发挥着至关重要的作用： 它是我们的社会，是一个重要的经济机构。 一个最 家庭的重要和持久的贡献，是 生产和养育子女。 这家人有主要的 负责养育和发展儿童，并有 公众对我们家庭状况的日益关注 家庭的恶化经常被认为是家庭暴力的一个潜在原因。 当前儿童面临的许多问题。 非法的角色 药物使用在决定家庭结构方面的作用相对未知， 这项研究的目的是填补我们知识上的这一空白。 的 本项目中使用的数据将来自以下青年群体： 国家纵向调查（NLS），这是一项纵向调查， 年轻人的劳动力市场经验（人力资源中心 Research 1990）。 调查的起始年份是1979年， 最初的样本约为12500名14-21岁的年轻人。 的 自1979年以来，调查每年都进行更新， 目的和问题。 这些数据包含有关 受访者的劳动力市场经验，家庭和个人背景，以及 非法药物使用。 本文的核心目的是提出以下问题： 与被告的非法药物使用有关。 1984年，1988年， 被调查者被问及他们使用几种非法药物的情况， 尤其是大麻和可卡因 该研究将获得 使用两种方法估计非法药物使用对家庭结构的影响 从NLS中抽取的横截面和纵向样本。 几 将使用统计程序分析数据，包括 多项logit模型，持续时间或风险模型，以及更简单的 描述性方法

The research proposed has three primary objectives. The first is to identify the effects of marijuana and cocaine use on the marriage and divorce rates of young adults. The second is to examine whether marijuana and cocaine use are factors associated with the probability of being a single parent. The third is to investigate the relationship between marijuana and cocaine use, and participation in the Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC) program. The three objectives are closely related due to the intimate connection between an individual's marriage and fertility plans, and the impact these variables have on AFDC participation. This, the broad purpose of this project is to provide new information concerning the extent to which the most commonly used types of illicit drugs are affecting the family structure. The family plays a vital role in our society and is an important economic institution. One of the most significant, and long lasting contributions of the family, is the production and rearing of children. The family has the primary responsibility for the nurturing and development of children, and there is a growing public concern regarding the state and condition of our families. The deterioration of the family is frequently cited as a potential cause of many of the current problems confronting children. The role that illicit drug use plays in determining family structure is relatively unknown, and the purpose of this research is to fill this gap in our knowledge. The data that will be used in this project will come from the youth cohort of the National Longitudinal Survey (NLS), which is a longitudinal survey of the labor market experiences of young adults (Center for Human Resource Research 1990). The starting year of the survey was 1979 and included an initial sample of approximately 12500 youths aged 14-21 at the time. The survey has been updated each year since 1979 with a broadening array of purposes and questions. The data contain detailed information on a respondent's labor market experience, family and personal background, and illicit drug use. Central to the purposes of this paper are the questions related to respondent's illicit drug use. In 1984, and again in 1988 the respondent was asked questions about their use of several illicit drugs, most notably marijuana and cocaine. The proposed research will obtain estimates of the effects of illicit drug use on family structure using both cross sectional and longitudinal samples drawn from the NLS. Several statistical procedures will be used to analyze the data including multinomial logit models, duration or hazard models, and simpler descriptive methods.
