“…Research has demonstrated that strong parenting practices are associated with decreased youth risk-taking behavior ( Borawski et al, 2003 ;Stanton et al, 2002 ). However, as adolescents mature and gain independence, parents often change their parenting practices to give their teens more independence ( Borawski et al, 2003 ;.…”

“…These last two areas are important to understand because while it is clear that parents retain their roles as important determinants of adolescent risk behavior ( Stanton et al, , 2002( Stanton et al, , 2004Steinberg, Fletcher, & Darling, 1994 ), it is also known that as adolescents age, many parents decrease the intensity and type of supervision and monitoring of their child ' s behavior . A better understanding of whether certain FF should remain constant or strong during adolescence is important in preventing smoking initiation in youth.…”

“…Notably, most research on resilience has focused on either nationally representative samples (9,19,35,63,89), predominantly white youth (42,62), or predominantly African American samples (3,20,23,39,48,55,57,81,82,88,93,100,102,116). Research that focuses on other ethnic groups, such as Latino, Native American, or Arab American youth, or on recent immigrants, would further our understanding of resilience among adolescents.…”

Key Words positive development, protective factors, alcohol, tobacco, illegal drugs, sexual behavior, violent behavior ■ Abstract Adolescent resilience research differs from risk research by focusing on the assets and resources that enable some adolescents to overcome the negative effects of risk exposure. We discuss three models of resilience-the compensatory, protective, and challenge models-and describe how resilience differs from related concepts. We describe issues and limitations related to resilience and provide an overview of recent resilience research related to adolescent substance use, violent behavior, and sexual risk behavior. We then discuss implications that resilience research has for intervention and describe some resilience-based interventions.

“…[24][25][26] Some research has demonstrated that poor parentadolescent communication and a lack of parental supervision are associated with potentially risky sexual behavior outcomes in diverse groups. [27][28][29] We hypothesized that increased family and school connectedness would be negatively associated with our behavioral outcomes. Similarly, peer attitudes can be an important predictor of young people's behavior because of social identity development during adolescence.…”

Objectives. We examined factors associated with having ever had sex, having more than 1 lifetime sexual partner, and condom nonuse at last incident of sexual intercourse among Canadian Aboriginal young people. Methods. We conducted a secondary analysis of data from the 2003 British Columbia Adolescent Health Survey, a cross-sectional survey of young people in grades 7 through 12. Results. Of 1140 young Aboriginal men, 34% had ever had sex; of these, 63% had had more than 1 sexual partner, and 21% had not used a condom at their last incident of sexual intercourse. Of 1336 young Aboriginal women, 35% had ever had sex; of these, 56% had had more than 1 sexual partner, and 41% had not used a condom at their last incident of sexual intercourse. Frequent substance use, having been sexually abused, and having lived on a land reservation were strongly associated with sexual behavior outcomes. Feeling connected to family was strongly associated with increased condom use. Conclusions. Sexual behavior change interventions for Aboriginal young people must move beyond the individual and incorporate interpersonal and structural dimensions. Interventions to reduce substance use and sexual abuse and promote feelings of family connectedness in this population should be explored. Young people living on land reserves need special attention.
