“…Early drinking experiences generally take place within the family environment [85], and this may introduce appropriate behaviours regarding use. One study found that 69 per cent of delinquents initially used alcohol without parental permission, compared to 25 per cent of non-delinquents [86].…”

The family plays a key part in both preventing and intervening with substance use and misuse, both through inducing risk, and/or encouraging and promoting protection and resilience. This review examines a number of family processes and structures that have been associated with young people commencing substance use and later misuse, and concludes that there is significant evidence for family involvement in young people's taking up, and later misusing, substances. Given this family involvement, the review explores and appraises interventions aimed at using the family to prevent substance use and misuse amongst young people. The review concludes that there is a dearth of methodologically highly sound research in this area, but the research that has been conducted does suggest strongly that the family can have a central role in preventing substance use and later misuse amongst young people.

“…First, the area is characterized by the narrow scope of current theories of deviant behavior outlined above. (For a review of this research on parental and peer influences see Akers, 1977; recent studies to see are Pearce and Garrett, 1970;Kandel, 1973;Jessor et al, 1972;O'Donnell et al, 1976;Tec, 1974a;1974b;Krohn, 1974;Wechsler and Thum, 1973;Kendall, 1976;Lawrence and Velleman, 1974.) Their theory, which is also a version of social learning, consists of three categories of variablespersonality, social, and behavioral.…”

American Sociological Association is collaborating with JSTOR to digitize, preserve and extend access to American Sociological Review.A social learning theory of deviant behavior is tested with survey data on adolescent drinking and drug behavior. The theory is strongly supported. The major explanatory variables from that theory, differential association, differential reinforcement, definitions, and imitation combine to account for 68%o of the variance in marijuana use (39o of abuse) and 55% of the variance in alcohol use (32%o of abuse) by adolescents. The study demonstrates that central learning concepts are amenable to questionnaire measurement, and the findings indicate that social learning theory will do well when tested with other forms of deviant behavior. * Direct all communications to:

This paper was a study of the student perceptions of the Chemawa Alcohol Education Center at Chemawa Indian School including a review of the literature on adolescent drinking, Indian youth in particular.Students who entered the.CAEC building during the week of November 14 21, 1972, were individually interviewed to determine the demographfc data on the student population, patterns of participation, and student ideas about the CAEC program. It was discovered that students inter viewed prefer this year's program over last year's, that students brought in for drinking violations were more involved in the counsel ing aspects of the program, and that the student group interviewed did indeed have need for a special kind of alcohol education center. The findings were inconclusive that students had ideas for significant change in the program, that the outreach of the CAEC counselors was the most important means of advertising for the program, and that there was a difference in program use by the Northwest and Alaskan students at Chemawa.
