This study tested a social-ecological model of adolescent substance use. Multilevel modeling was used to investigate how systems,
such as parents, peers, schools, and communities, directly influence and interact together to influence adolescent substance
use. Participants included 14,548 (50.3% female) middle school students who were 78.6% White, 5.4% Biracial, 4.8% Asian, 4.8%
Black, and 3.6% Hispanic. Participants completed a survey with scales assessing substance use, peer influences, parental influences,
and characteristics of their school and community. Hierarchical linear modeling (HLM) was used to consider the variation of
parental and peer influences on substance use and how schools and communities relate to both substance use and the relationship
between substance use and peer and parental factors. Results indicated that a positive school climate and a positive sense
of community were associated with less adolescent substance use and that a positive sense of community moderated the relation
between peer and parental influence on adolescent substance use, thereby acting as a protective factor.

This study investigated genetic and environmental influences on the associations between mother–child relationship quality
(warmth and hostility) and adolescent conduct problems and cigarette use. Participants included 601 mothers and adolescent
twin pairs (aged 12–17 years). Mothers and adolescents provided separate reports of mother-to-child warmth and hostility.
A combined measure of mother and adolescent reported conduct problems was used while adolescents provided reports of their
cigarette use. Analyses were conducted using bivariate genetic analyses of correlated factors models and regression analyses
of monozygotic twin differences. Genetic influences were found for most ratings of the parent–child relationship, with evidence
of gender and/or rater-specificity for some measures. The relationship between mother–child hostility with adolescent conduct
problems and cigarette use was influenced by genetic and environmental effects. Evidence was found for shared environment
effects on the relationship between mother–child warmth and conduct problems. Examining monozygotic twin differences provided
further support for non-shared environmental influence on the relationship between mothers’ expressions of hostility and low
warmth and adolescent adjustment. Findings are discussed in relation to the interplay between genetic and environmental effects
underlying links between parent–child relations and adolescent behavior problems.

Prior research demonstrates negative consequences of racism, however, little is known about community, parenting, and intrapersonal
mechanisms that protect youth. Using a mixed-methods approach, this study illuminated linkages between positive and negative
contextual influences on rural African American adolescent outcomes. Quantitative results provide support for Structural Ecosystems
Theory, in that the influence of discrimination and collective socialization on adolescent outcomes was mediated by racial
socialization and positive parenting. Parenting and community influences contributed to adolescent racial identity and self
image, which protected against common negative responses to racism; including academic underachievement, succumbing to peer
pressure, and aggressive tendencies. Qualitative results indicate that current measures of discrimination may underestimate
adolescents’ experiences. Adolescents reported racist experiences in the domains of school, peers, and with the police (males
only). Moreover, qualitative findings echoed and expanded quantitative results with respect to the importance of the protective
nature of parents and communities.

In this study we examined the effects of risk factors (perceived neighborhood crime/delinquency problems, neighborhood incivilities)
and protective factors (teacher support, family support, peer support) on the school engagement of 123 urban adolescents of
color. Age and gender were also examined to determine if different ages (younger or older) or genders (male or female) significantly
modified the relationship between the risk factors and school engagement. Results indicated that perceived neighborhood incivilities
was uniquely predictive of school engagement. Contrary to hypotheses, different levels of the perceived social support variables
did not modify the effects of risky neighborhood conditions on adolescent’s perceived school engagement. Age, but not gender,
significantly modified the relationship between perceived family social support and perceived neighborhood crime on adolescents’
reported levels of school engagement. The implications of the results for prevention and intervention programs that address
school engagement among early adolescents of color are considered.

The goal of the study was to examine whether social motives (social mimicry, mutual attraction, and unreciprocated attraction)
predict changes in antisocial behavior across middle school grades. The 2,003 initial participants (55% girls) were drawn
from a larger longitudinal study of urban public school students: 44% Latino, 26% African-American, 10% Asian, 9% Caucasian,
and 11% multiracial. Analyses of peer nominations and teacher-rated behavior included five waves of data between the fall
of sixth grade and the spring of eighth grade (n = 1,260–1,347 for longitudinal analyses). Supporting the social mimicry hypothesis, students who associated peer-directed
aggression with high social status in the beginning of middle school engaged in elevated levels of antisocial conduct during
the second year in the new school. Additionally, unreciprocated attraction toward peers who bully others in the beginning
of middle school was related to increased antisocial behavior in the last year of middle school. No support was obtained for
the mutual attraction hypothesis. The findings provide insights about possible social motives underlying susceptibility to
negative peer influence.

This study examined (a) the associations between school connectedness and early adolescent adjustment problems over a 1 year
period and (b) the equivalence of these associations across gender. Five hundred middle school students (53.4% female), initially
in the 6th and 7th grades, participated in the two-wave study. Results from two-group cross-lagged panel analyses were consistent
across boys’ and girls’ data. After controlling for baseline levels of adjustment problems, school connectedness predicted
lower levels of early adolescent conduct problems 1 year later. Regarding the opposite direction of associations, and even
after baseline levels of school connectedness were taken into account, conduct problems predicted lower levels of subsequent
school connectedness. There were no cross-lagged associations between depressive symptoms and school connectedness, although
elevated levels of baseline depressive symptoms predicted higher levels of subsequent conduct problems. Findings elaborate
previous research by demonstrating that early adolescents actively shape the middle school environment.

Based on the Theory of Reasoned Action, this study evaluated a “socialization” model linking girls’ peer crowd affiliations
(e.g., Jocks, Populars) with their own weight concern, perceived peer weight norms, and weight control behaviors. An alternative
“selection” model was also evaluated. Girls (N = 236; M age = 15.95 years) from diverse ethnic backgrounds completed surveys assessing peer crowd affiliation, their own concern
with weight, perceptions of peers’ concern with weight, and weight control behaviors. Models were evaluated using SEM. The
socialization model demonstrated good fit; the alternative selection model did not. Specifically, girls’ level of identification
with certain peer crowds (Jocks, Burnouts, Alternatives) was associated with girls’ reported own concern and perceived peer
concern with weight. Additionally, girls’ own concern and peer norms were related independently to girls’ weight control behaviors.
Findings suggest that peer crowds and girls’ own and peer weight norms may be important targets of prevention efforts.

Developmental Changes in Adolescents’ Perceptions of Relationships with Their Parents 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

This 4-wave longitudinal study examines developmental changes in adolescents’ perceptions of parent–adolescent relationships
by assessing parental support, conflict with parents, and parental power. A total of 951 early adolescents (50.4% boys) and
390 middle adolescents (43.3% boys) participated. Univariate and multivariate growth curve analyses showed that support declined
from early to middle adolescence for boys and girls and increased from middle to late adolescence for girls, while stabilizing
for boys. Conflict was found to temporarily increase during middle adolescence. Parental power (relative power and dominance
of parents) decreased from early to late adolescence. Results indicated that: (1) parent–adolescent relationships become more
egalitarian during adolescence, (2) parents perceived by adolescents as powerful are viewed as supportive, especially in early
adolescence, and (3) perceived conflict with parents is related to but not an impetus for changes in parent–adolescent relationships
towards more equality.

The purpose of the present study was to examine how peer group processes of pressure and control and individual motivations
for popularity would add to, and moderate the relationship between, childhood maltreatment and risky behavior in adolescence.
A total of 1558 youth (804 girls) from three high schools in Ontario, Canada (M age = 15.02 years, SD = .86) reported on their alcohol use, delinquent behavior, childhood experiences of physical and emotional
maltreatment and neglect, peer group processes involving control and individual popularity motivations. Regression analyses
showed that, beyond the significant contributions of childhood maltreatment, peer group control predicted risky alcohol use
and delinquent behavior. Peer group control and popularity motivations exacerbated the negative effect of physical maltreatment
on delinquent behavior. Boys’ experiences of peer group control were more strongly linked to alcohol use and delinquent behavior
than girls’. These results suggest that there is a significant window of opportunity during adolescence where the peer group
context can exacerbate or buffer childhood experiences.

This study examined adolescent peer-on-peer sexual assault victimization occurring within and outside school. The sample consisted
of 1,086 7th through 12th grade students, with a mean age of 15. Most of the respondents were White (54%) or Black (45%),
and approximately half of respondents were female (54%). A modified version of the Sexual Experiences Survey was used to assess
opposite sex sexual victimization in 7th through 12th grade students. Rates of peer sexual assault were high, ranging from
26% of high school boys to 51% of high school girls. School was the most common location of peer sexual victimization. Characteristics
of assault varied by location, including type of victimization, victims’ grade level, relationship to the perpetrator, type
of coercion, and how upsetting the assault was. Distinctions between sexual assault occurring in and out of school are conceptualized
with literature on developmental changes in heterosexual relationships and aggression.

This study investigated a multi-mediation model of the relationship between bullying behavior, peer victimization, personal
identity, and family characteristics to adolescent depressive symptoms in 194 high school students, 12–18 years of age. In
the first model, peer victimization mediated the relation between bullying behavior and depressive symptoms. In the second
model, personal identity mediated the relation between peer victimization and depressive symptoms. In the final model, the
two mediation models were combined. The relative influence of family characteristics on all variables in the two mediation
models was studied using structural equation modeling. The results supported both mediation models and confirmed the influence
of family characteristics on all variables in the mediation models. This study indicates that victimization by one’s peers
has consequences for adolescents’ psychological health when their personal identity is affected. In addition, the study was
able to model several processes in which family characteristics were related to adolescent depressive symptoms. Moreover,
the final combined model (in which the two mediation models and the influence of family characteristics on all variables were
confirmed) explained half of the variance in adolescent depressive symptoms.

Changes in the family structure can be very disruptive to adolescents who live in those families. This article examines the
impact of the number of family transitions on delinquent and drug-using behavior. Specifically, the effect of family transitions
is hypothesized to be mediated by problems within the family, school, and peer settings. A sample of 646 boys (73%) and girls
(27%) taken from a longitudinal panel study of high-risk adolescents are used to examine these hypotheses. For girls, little
support is found for the direct or the indirect effect of family transitions on delinquent behavior or drug use. For boys,
however, both forms of problem behavior are influenced by family transitions directly and indirectly through changes in, and
problems with, peer associations. The findings suggest that during times of family turmoil, the friendship network of adolescent
male children is also disrupted, leading to an increase in associations with delinquent others and, in turn, an increase in
problematic behaviors.

In a sample of 207 eighth grade students, we examined similarities between students and their friends in achievement motivation
and whether friendship support moderated these associations. Academic self-competence and intrinsic value for math and English
were assessed using both perceptions of friends and actual friend reports collected through friend nominations. For both sources
of information, there was a stronger positive association between students’ and friends’ academic self-competence when friendships
were rated as more supportive. Analyses predicting intrinsic value for math and English provided weaker evidence of an interaction.
Comparisons of the students’ perceptions and their friends’ actual reports suggested that students overestimated the degree
to which their friends had attitudes similar to their own. Students also perceived that their friends valued academics significantly
less than the friends actually reported. Results suggest that both friend and friendship characteristics are important for
understanding student achievement motivation.

This study examined the mediating role of self-blaming attributions on peer victimization-maladjustment relations in middle
school and the moderating role of classroom ethnic diversity. Latino and African American 6th grade participants (N = 1105, 56% female) were recruited from middle schools in which they were either members of the numerical majority ethnic
group, the numerical minority, or one of several ethnic groups in ethnically diverse schools. Peer nomination data were gathered
in the Fall of 6th grade to determine which students had reputations as victims of harassment and self-report data on self-blame
for peer harassment and the adjustment outcomes of depressive symptoms and feelings of self-worth were gathered in the Spring
of 6th grade, approximately 6 months later. A mediational model in which self-blame partly explained the relation between
victimization and maladjustment was supported among students from the majority ethnic group in their classroom but not among
students from the minority group. The usefulness of including ethnic diversity as an important context variable in studies
of peer victimization during early adolescence was discussed.

This study evaluated effects of the Iowa Strengthening Families Program, a family-focused universal preventive intervention, on growth patterns of adolescent internalizing (anxiety and depressive
symptoms) and monthly polysubstance use (alcohol, tobacco, marijuana, inhalants, and other illicit drugs), as well as the
association between internalizing and polysubstance growth factors. The sample consisted of rural Midwestern adolescents (N = 383), followed from sixth through twelfth grade. Compared to the control group, the intervention group adolescents showed
a slower rate of increase in internalizing symptoms and polysubstance use. Intervention effects on internalizing symptoms
were similar for boys and girls; however, girls demonstrated a higher overall level and a greater rate of increase across
time. The intervention slowed the rate of increase in polysubstance use significantly more for girls than for boys, although
overall levels of use were lower in the intervention group for both genders. Associations between internalizing and polysubstance
use growth factors were found for girls, but not for boys, suggesting gender differences in psychosocial development.

The primary purpose of our study was to explore the effects of rurality on school adjustment and other school-related variables.
Using data from 167,738 7th–12th graders located in a national sample of 185 predominantly white communities, multilevel models
were estimated for perceived school performance and school liking using a variety of individual-level (e.g., gender, ethnicity,
and peer school performance) and community/school-level variables (e.g., school size, rurality, and percentage free/reduced
lunch) as predictor variables. Rurality was not significantly related to school adjustment, but rather, the characteristics
of individuals living within those communities were. Results also indicated that participation in school and non-school activities,
a strength of rural schools, can play a positive role in school adjustment. Given the significant relationships of income
and parental education to all of the school-related variables, a key long-term strategy may lie in improving the economic
climate of rural areas.

The broader context of relational aggression in adolescent romantic relationships was assessed by considering the ways such
aggression emerged from prior experiences of peer pressure and was linked to concurrent difficulties in psychosocial functioning.
Longitudinal, multi-reporter data were obtained from 97 adolescents and their best friends at age 15 and from adolescents
and their romantic partners at age 18. Teens’ relational aggression and romantic partners’ victimization were predicted from
levels of best friends’ pressuring behaviors toward teens in an observed interaction as well as from best friends’ ratings
of how much pressure teens experienced from their peer group. Romantic partner relational aggression and teen victimization
were predicted by pressure from teens’ peer group only. Adolescents’ romantic relational aggression and victimization were
also associated with elevated levels of depressive symptoms and increased alcohol use. Results are discussed in terms of the
connection of relational aggression in romantic relationships to the broader task of establishing autonomy with peers in psychosocial
development.

Protective and risk factors associated with rates of early sexual debut and risky sexual behaviors for a sample of low-income
adolescent boys were examined using bioecological theory framed by a resiliency perspective. Protective processes examined
include a close mother–son and father–son relationship, parental monitoring and family routines, as well as the adolescent
boy’s academic achievement, expectations, and school recognition. The risk factors assessed were delinquent behaviors, if
the adolescent was born to a teenage mother, family structure, monthly family income, risky neighborhood environments, family
of origin welfare receipt, and maternal education. Waves one (1999) and two (2001) of Welfare, Children, and Families: A Three-City Study were used (N = 528; Wave 1 ages 10–14 years). Associations between early sexual debut and risky sexual behaviors with individual, family,
school, and neighborhood protective and risk factors were addressed through a series of d-probit and Ordinary Least Squares
multiple regression techniques. When protective and risk factors were addressed independently, academic achievement and parental
monitoring protected adolescent boys from early sexual debut and risky sexual behaviors while drug and alcohol use and school
problems placed them at risk for these behaviors. However, when the model is assessed together, early parental monitoring
and academic achievement were shown to protect boys’ early sexual debut and risky sexual behaviors by reducing their delinquent
behaviors, specifically early drug and alcohol use and school problems.

Time spent in freely chosen leisure activities offers a distinct developmental context that can support positive youth development; however this potential for growth depends in part on adolescent interest and engagement in their free time activities. Research indicates that many adolescents report experiencing boredom, instead of interest, in their free time. This study utilized longitudinal data from 354 rural middle school students to investigate how parenting practices and adolescent motivational styles influence adolescents’ experience of interest in their free time. Findings indicated that adolescent self-regulated motivation and parental knowledge related to the free time context were positively associated with experiences of interest, while adolescent amotivation and parental control were negatively associated with interest in free time. The effect of parental knowledge and parental control on adolescents’ experiences of interest was mediated by adolescent motivational styles. These results were similar across grade level and gender. Implications for interventions promoting positive youth development are discussed.

Sociometric nominations, social cognitive maps, and self-report questionnaires were completed in consecutive years by 327
students (56% girls) followed longitudinally from grade 7 to grade 8 to examine the stability of social standing in peer groups
and correlates of changes in social standing. Social preference, perceived popularity, network centrality, and leadership
were moderately stable from grade 7 to grade 8. Alcohol use and relational aggression in grade 7 predicted changes in social
preference and centrality, respectively, between grade 7 and grade 8, but these effects were moderated by gender and ethnicity.
Changes in social standing from grade 7 to grade 8 were unrelated to grade 8 physical aggression, relational aggression, and
alcohol use after controlling for the grade 7 corollaries of these behaviors. Results are discussed in terms of their implications
for understanding links between social standing and problem behaviors during adolescence.
