“…In previous analyses of the baseline of the longitudinal data analyzed in the current study, Conway and colleagues (2013) used a nationally representative sample of 10th-grade students and found four patterns ("classes") of users: majority nonusers, alcohol users, marijuana users, and polysubstance users (e.g., alcohol, tobacco, marijuana, and other illicit drug use). Four other studies using national and local samples found four or five classes of substance users, with a consistent finding of a polysubstance-user class using alcohol, tobacco, marijuana, and/or other drugs (Connell et al, 2010;Cranford et al, 2013;Dierker et al, 2007;Lamont et al, 2014;Whitesell et al, 2006). These studies were limited to cross-sectional analysis.…”

“…R ISK FACTORS AND CONSEQUENCES OF substance use have long been studied in relation to individual substances (e.g., tobacco, alcohol, marijuana, and other illicit drugs). However, many adolescents use multiple substances (Connell et al, 2009(Connell et al, , 2010Conway et al, 2013;Dierker et al, 2007;Whitesell et al, 2006). Measuring contemporaneous multiple-substance use is important because it accurately represents the experiences of many substance users and may be an important focus for risk factor identification and programmatic attention.…”

ABSTRACT. Objective: Use of tobacco, alcohol, marijuana, and other drugs increases during the high school years, yet little is known about individual patterns over time, particularly patterns of contemporaneous multiple-substance use. This study examined trajectories of contemporaneous substance use and how individual and social factors differentially predict patterns of substance use. Method: Longitudinal trajectories of substance use were examined in a nationally representative sample of students (N = 2,512) over a 3-year period (10th through 12th grades) using latent class analysis. Individual, parental, and peer risk factors in 10th grade were examined in relation to membership in trajectory classes. Result: A five-class model was identified: nonusers (45.5%); tobacco, alcohol, and other drug users (9.2%); alcohol and other drug users (9.2%); increasing multiple-substance users (16.7%); and decreasing multiple-substance users (19.4%). Depressive symptoms at baseline were associated with a higher likelihood of membership in all classes except the increasing multiple-substance-user class, but the association becomes insignificant when social influence factors were adjusted. Parental-monitoring knowledge was associated with a lower likelihood of membership in all classes except increasing multiple-substance-user class, whereas perceived parental disapproval was associated with a lower likelihood of membership in the tobacco, alcohol, and other drug user class. Peer substance use was associated with a higher likelihood of membership in each of the substance use classes. Conclusions: The identified longitudinal profiles highlight the pervasiveness and dynamic patterns of contemporaneous multiple-substance use during 10th through 12th grades. Negative peer influence increased risk, whereas positive parenting behaviors decreased risk. The findings are consistent with the need to foster social influences and protective factors against adolescent substance use. (J. Stud. Alcohol Drugs, 76, 962-970, 2015) Received: March 4, 2015.

(² = 125.55, p < .001), current educational year (² = 29.75, p < .001), living arrangement (² = 11.47, p < .01), Sensation seeking (² = 40.81, p < .001), depression (² = 50.81, p < .001), p < .01), family history of drug use (² = 196.58, p < .001), and peer drug use (² = 85.63, p < .001) IntroductionUnited Nation Office on Drug and Crime (UNODC) has estimated that in 2010 between 153 million and 300 million people aged 15-64 (3.4-6.6 % of the world's population in that age group) had used an illicit substance (harmful or hazardous use of psychoactive drugs) at least once in the previous year [22]. In Indonesia, the prevalence of drug use were increased about 0.21% from 1.99 % or about 3.3 million people in 2008 to 2.2 % or about 3.8 million people in 2011 of the total population (aged 10-60 year old) [14]. Aceh is one of Indonesia province with the higher risk of substance behavior. Aceh was the first rank of marijuana land evidence in Indonesia. The survey of 10 universities in Aceh revealed that the students in eight of ten universities were positively engage in drug user [12]. Despite, government and BNN of Aceh had sought strategies against drugs use in Aceh; these cases have increased in three years . There has been a significant increasing in specific drug use involving, in particular tobacco products, methamphetamine, and marijuana [11]. Consequently, there were health's effects of the increasing drug use prevalence.From the perspective of adverse effects, drug use was ranked at 20 th world as the cause of mortality and it was ranked at the 10 th in the developing countries, including Indonesia. UNODC (2012) stated that there were between 99,000 and 253,000 deaths of drug user globally in 2010, with drug-related deaths accounting for between 0.5 and 1.3 % of all-cause mortality among aged 15-64 [21]. Not only adults were attacked by these health consequences of drug use, but currently adolescents are at high risk of these issues.One of factors that can influence drug use behavior is intrapersonal factors. Previous studies identified that intrapersonal factors (sensation seeking, depression, and self-esteem) were affected drug use behavior. These factors found were associated with drug use [15], [8]. In another hand a study showed these factors were not significantly associated with drug use [20]. Another, factor that can influence drug use behavior was interpersonal/ social factors, including family history of drug use and peer drug use. These factors influence an important role in shaping of drug use attitudes and behaviors among adolescents. According to literature review, those factors affecting drug use behavior in adolescent [4], [15], [8].The theory of triadic influence (TTI) [16] is used as a guiding theoretical framework for this study. Briefly, the TTI is a metatheory that integrates several theories of health related behavior. It was initially developed to explain adolescent substance-use behaviors. The theory provides for a comprehensive, integrative analysis of social situation, cu...

This study involved two academically-gifted samples of 11th and 12th grade youth at the socioeconomic status (SES) extremes; one from an exclusive private, affluent school, and the other from a magnet school with low-income students. Negative and positive adjustment outcomes were examined in relation to multiple dimensions of perfectionism including perceived parental pressures to be perfect, personal perfectionistic self-presentation, and envy of peers. The low-income students showed some areas of relative vulnerability, but when large group differences were found, it was the affluent youth who were at a disadvantage, with substantially higher substance use and peer envy. Affluent girls seemed particularly vulnerable, with pronounced elevations in perfectionistic tendencies, peer envy, as well as body dissatisfaction. Examination of risk and protective processes showed that relationships with mothers were associated with students’ distress as well as positive adjustment. Additionally, findings showed links between (a) envy of peers and multiple outcomes (among high SES girls in particular), (b) dimensions of perfectionism in relation to internalizing symptoms, and (c) high extrinsic versus intrinsic values in relation to externalizing symptoms.
