“…The inclusion of the direct path from Skills for Interaction to ASB7/8, as prescribed by social learning theory, suggests that students' socioemotional and cognitive skills continue to play an important role in the progression of antisocial behaviours, over and above skills' influence through perceived rewards for involvement, bonding to others and beliefs. This relationship has been found in other tests of the SDM (Catalano et al, 1999;Fleming et al, 2002). Although results indicate partial mediation by SDM constructs, the majority of the impact of socioemotional and cognitive skills on antisocial behaviour appears to be direct.…”

“…Interestingly, previous studies that examined rewards from both parents and others such as neighbors and peers usually found a relationship between social skills and rewards (e.g., . In contrast, studies focusing only on parental rewards usually did not report this relationship (e.g., Catalano et al 1999;Fleming et al 2002). The lack of a direct association between social skills and parental rewards might be due to parents being less discriminating in their rewarding behaviors than people in other contexts (Oxford et al 2000).…”

The current study applied the Social Development Model (SDM) to improve understanding of the mediation processes through which the family environment was related to Chinese adolescent delinquent behavior. We tested the hypothesized model using structural equation modeling with questionnaire data collected from 736 Chinese 7th and 9th graders, their parents, and their teachers from two middle schools in Beijing, China. Testing the model separately for boys and girls yielded adequate fit indices for both although the hypothesized model was not invariant across gender and several gender differences were identified. The SDM appeared to be a valuable tool in studying the development of Chinese adolescent delinquency.

“…The SDM proposes that development of attachments depends on perceived opportunities for involvement in either prosocial or antisocial activities as well as the level of perceived rewards for involvement in the activities. Support for the SDM has been shown for a variety of adolescent outcomes [14,15] and across gender and income groups as well as developmental periods [16,17]. A common feature of these studies is the use of combined indicators from the domains (community, school, family, and peers) into a single cross-domain composite factor.…”

Purpose-To compare the relative influence of risk and protective factors across several domains on adolescent substance use in a large sample of youth.Methods-Cross-sectional survey data were collected from 6th, 8th, 10th, and 12th grade students in Pennsylvania (N = 91,778). Generalized linear mixed models were estimated for each grade level to examine associations among indices of 3 risk (individual, peer, and family) and 3 protective (family, school, and community) factors and (a) lifetime substance use and (b) recent substance use.Results-The risk factors were stronger predictors of substance use outcomes compared to the protective factors, regardless of grade level or substance use type. In particular, the individual and peer risk factors were strongly related to lifetime and recent use of cigarettes, alcohol, and marijuana. Among the protective factors, the strongest associations with substance use were found in the community domain. Several age-related differences in the associations were also found, suggesting that family and community factors were more salient among younger grades whereas peer and school factors were stronger among older adolescents.Conclusions-These findings provide support for the Social Development Model (SDM), which proposes that adolescent substance use is associated with factors across multiple spheres of influence. Age-related differences in these associations suggest that effective interventions to reduce adolescent substance use may need to emphasize different domains of risk and protective factors at different stages of adolescent development. KeywordsAdolescence; age differences; risk factors; protective factors; substance use Recent epidemiologic surveys indicate that substance use by U.S. youth remains a matter of concern. For example, the 2006 Monitoring the Future results showed that among 12 th graders, most (72.7%) had tried alcohol at least once in their lives and almost half (42.3%) reported lifetime use of marijuana. Among the 8 th grade students, lifetime prevalence of alcohol exceeded 40% and nearly 16% reported trying marijuana at least once. Lifetime use of cigarettes was reported by nearly half (47.1%) of 12 th graders and almost one-fourth (24.6%)Corresponding Author: Michael J. Cleveland, The Methodology Center, 204 E.
