“…Auxiliary analyses confi rmed that some of these differences, particularly in alcohol misuse, were explained by preexisting differences in adolescent substance use before age 18. This phenomenon may be a form of "anticipatory socialization" (Yamaguchi and Kandel, 1985), in which those who initiate drug use early are more likely to abuse substances or become dependent later in life (Guo et al, 2000;Hingson et al, 2006) and are also more likely to make precocious transitions into adult roles (including teenage parenting).…”

“…Marriage has been shown to reduce alcohol and marijuana use and, to a lesser extent, cigarette smoking among young adult men and women (Bachman et al, 1997a;Christie-Mizell and Peralta, 2009;Curran et al, 1998;Merline et al, 2008;Yamaguchi and Kandel, 1985).…”

“…For example, living away from the parental home has been found to be associated with an increase in alcohol use, heavy episodic drinking, and marijuana use during the early 20s (Bachman et al, 1997a;White et al, 2005White et al, , 2006. Marriage, pregnancy, and parenthood have been associated with reduced alcohol and marijuana use and, to a lesser degree, cigarette smoking during young adulthood (Bachman et al, 1997a;Bailey et al, 2008;Curran et al, 1998;Merline et al, 2008;Yamaguchi and Kandel, 1985). However, transitions into different adult roles are not independent of each other but are clearly interrelated social pathways that include linked developmental trajectories, where each transition cascades into another (Elder, 1998;Masten et al, 2005).…”

ABSTRACT. Objective: Social role transitions have been linked to changes in substance use and misuse during young adulthood. This study examined how commonly observed pathways to adulthood, defi ned by education, employment, marriage, and parenthood, were associated with alcohol, tobacco, and marijuana misuse from ages 18 to 33. Method: Data came from a longitudinal panel of 412 men and 396 women recruited when they were in fi fth grade in Seattle public schools in 1985. Participants were followed through age 33 in 2008, with 92% retention. Results: Young adults who had little postsecondary education and remained unmarried through age 30 generally had the highest rates of substance misuse. Those who were involved in postsecondary education and postponed family formation had the lowest rates, particularly with respect to daily smoking and nicotine dependence. Parenting during the young adult years was associated with lower rates of substance misuse for both men and women. However, taking on parenting responsibilities early, during the late teen years and early 20s (observed mostly for women), was associated with higher rates of tobacco misuse. Differences in substance misuse by pathways to adulthood were fairly constant across the young adulthood years and were already observed at age 18, suggesting that substance misuse patterns are established early. Conclusions: Young adults may change their substance use only partially in response to new freedoms and responsibilities in young adulthood. Preventive efforts should include a focus on early initiation of substance use and educational experiences that move people into life trajectories and associated substance misuse patterns. (J. Stud. Alcohol Drugs, 72,

“…Ancillary analyses also suggested that illicit drug use may lead to deviant peer affiliation via increases in conduct problems, suggesting that drug-induced facilitation of deviant behavior may play a role in the process of deviant peer affiliation. In turn, increased peer deviancy is likely to contribute to the risk of conduct problems via social learning mechanisms such as direct peer pressure and vicariant learning (e.g., observing other drug users) (Bandura and McClelland, 1977) and group-based processes, such as norms and sanctions that define a standard for non-conventional behavior and provide penalties or rewards to promote conformity to this standard (Kandel, 1985).…”

“…Drug use may draw adolescents toward delinquent and drug-using peers who can influence academic and psychosocial adjustment via social learning mechanisms (e.g., direct peer pressure; Bandura, 1977) or group norms and sanctions (Kandel, 1985). At the same time, drug use may push adolescent illicit drug users away from normative social ties, as drug use generates "role incompatibility" with expected roles such as school engagement (Yamaguchi and Kandel, 1985).…”

Background. Questions remain regarding the consequences of illicit drug use on adolescent adjustment and the nature of mechanisms that may explain these consequences. In this study, we examined whether early-onset illicit drug use predicts subsequent academic and psychosocial adjustment and whether associations are socially-mediated by decreased school engagement and increased peer deviancy.Method. 4885 adolescents were followed throughout secondary school. We used regressions to determine whether illicit drug use in grade 7 predicted academic achievement, school dropout, depressive symptoms, and conduct problems in grades 10-11, adjusting for potential confounders.We used path analysis to test whether significant associations were mediated by school engagement and peer deviancy in grade 8.Results. Illicit drug use predicted conduct problems and school dropout, but not academic achievement and depressive symptoms. The association between illicit drug use and conduct problems was fully mediated by increased peer deviancy. The association between illicit drug use and school dropout was partially mediated by increased peer deviancy, but remained mostly direct. No indirect association via decreased school engagement was found. Examination of reverse pathways revealed that conduct problems and academic achievement in grade 7 predicted drug use in grades 10-11. These associations were mediated by peer deviancy and school engagement (conduct problems only).Conclusion. Adolescent illicit drug use influences the risk of school dropout and conduct problems in part by contributing to deviant peer affiliation. Reciprocal social mediation characterizes the association between drug use and conduct problems. A reverse mechanism best explains the association with academic achievement.

Context Comprehensive descriptions of substance use and abuse trajectories have been lacking in nationally representative samples of adolescents. Objective To examine the prevalence, age at onset, and sociodemographic correlates of alcohol and illicit drug use and abuse among US adolescents. Design Cross-sectional survey of adolescents using a modified version of the Composite International Diagnostic Interview. Setting Combined household and school adolescent samples. Participants Nationally representative sample of 10 123 adolescents aged 13 to 18 years. Main Outcome Measures Lifetime estimates of alcohol and illicit substance use and DSM-IV diagnoses of abuse, with or without dependence. Results By late adolescence, 78.2% of US adolescents had consumed alcohol, 47.1% had reached regular drinking levels defined by at least 12 drinks within a given year, and 15.1% met criteria for lifetime abuse. The opportunity to use illicit drugs was reported by 81.4% of the oldest adolescents, drug use by 42.5%, and drug abuse by 16.4%. The median age at onset was 14 years for alcohol abuse with or without dependence, 14 years for drug abuse with dependence, and 15 years for drug abuse without dependence. The associations observed by age, sex, and race/ ethnicity often varied significantly by previous stage of use. Conclusions Alcohol and drug use is common in US adolescents, and the findings of this study indicate that most cases of abuse have their initial onset in this important period of development. Prevention and treatment efforts would benefit from careful attention to the correlates and risk factors that are specific to the stage of substance use in adolescents.
