“…Additionally, the Substance Use scale correlated significantly with externalizing disorders according to the CBC and the YSR, thus supporting the already suggested relationship between these disorders and drug use (Lillehoj, Trudeau, Spoth, & Madon, 2005).…”

“…While respondents could self-identify as multiethnic, 93.1% identified solely as either American Indian (71.8%; 2497) or white (21.3%; 742) while 1.9% (65) identified as both white and American Indian and 3.5% (121) identified as American Indian and some other race/ethnicity (the largest being Latino/Hispanic). Age was measured as an interval variable, and age-squared was included to account for potential non-linear growth in the odds of initiation, as found elsewhere (Lillehoj et al, 2005; Novins and Barón, 2004; Reardon et al, 2002). Finally, region was measured with two dummy variables where Northern Plains was the base.…”

Background Early initiation of drinking, intoxication, marijuana, and inhalant use is associated with negative outcomes and substance use trajectories. Using national datasets, American Indian (AI) youth have been found to initiate substance use earlier than other youth. This study uses a population-based sample of youth living on or near reservations to compare substance use onset for AI and white youth where socioeconomic conditions may be similar for these youth. Methods Student survey data were gathered from 32 schools in 3 regions from 2009-2012. A retrospective person-period data set was constructed using reported age of initiation of intoxication and marijuana and inhalant use. Multi-level modeling and event history analysis were used to estimate initiation as a function of age, gender, ethnicity, and region. Results The results provide further evidence that AI youth living on or near reservations initiate substance use significantly earlier than white youth who attend the same schools and live in the same communities. Differences between the two cultural groups were most evident for marijuana initiation where the odds of initiating marijuana use ranged from seven to 10 times greater for nine vs. eight-year-old AI compared to white youth. Conclusions Prevention efforts targeted to AI youth must begin earlier than for non-AI youth in order to delay or prevent initiation. In addition, better understanding about the differences in the psychosocial environments of AI and white youth living in these communities is of paramount importance in designing prevention efforts.

“…Gender and family background variables have been found to be related to adolescent substance use (Ensminger, Anthony, & McCord, 1997; Lillehoj et al, 2005). To examine whether the relationship between the predictor variables and adolescent substance use might be confounded by other risk factors associated with adolescent substance use, we included in the full conditional models (those with all three risk factors) gender and the following individual-level confounding variables: (a) low-income status (whether individual families received Aid to Families with Dependent Children or food stamps), (b) mother’s level of education (no college or some college/college degree), and (c) marital status of mother (whether students lived in a single-parent household).…”

“…In a review of risk and protective factors for adolescent drug use problems, Hawkins, Catalano, and Miller (1992) identified early antisocial behavior as one risk factor that puts children at risk for drug abuse. Using growth curve modeling, Lillehoj, Trudeau, Spoth, and Madon (2005) found that externalizing behaviors of early adolescents were related to both level and change in substance (alcohol, marijuana, and cigarettes) initiation trajectories. The literature linking maternal major depression to child antisocial behavior and childhood antisocial behavior to adolescent substance use suggests that early antisocial behavior may be a risk factor that links maternal depressed mood to adolescent substance use.…”

Maternal depression has been implicated in the development of adolescent substance use. Conceptualizing depression as a continuum, the aims of this study were to (a) understand the relationship between maternal depressed mood and risk factors associated with adolescent substance use; (b) understand the relationship between maternal depressed mood and level and growth in adolescent alcohol, cigarette, and marijuana use assessed at multiple time points during adolescence; and (c) examine the unique and relative contribution of maternal depressed mood after taking into account contextual risk factors related to adolescent substance use. Participants were 792 children and their mothers. Latent growth modeling was used with adolescent alcohol, cigarette, and marijuana use treated as ordinal variables. Child depressive phenomena and child antisocial behavior partially explained the relationship between maternal depressed mood and adolescent alcohol and cigarette use. Mothers' own substance use did not contribute to level or change in adolescent substance use after other risk factors were considered. KeywordsAdolescent substance use; maternal depressed mood Maternal depression has been linked to poor developmental outcomes, including depression, conduct problems, and substance use, in children (Beardslee, Versage, & Gladstone, 1998;Downey & Coyne, 1990;Lewinsohn, Olino, & Klein, 2005). Among these problems, adolescent substance use is of special interest because most adolescents try alcohol, marijuana, or cigarettes during their high school years and because the potential long-term mental health consequences of substance use are severe (Brook, Brook, Zhang, Cohen, & Whiteman, 2002). We examine the relationship between exposure to maternal depressed mood during middle childhood and level and growth of alcohol, marijuana, and cigarette use during adolescence. Using a multiple risk factor model (Greenberg et al., 1999), we also examine the extent to which the relationship between maternal depressed mood and adolescent substance use is accounted for by parental substance use, child depressive phenomena, and childhood antisocial behavior.Research has shown that numerous risk and protective factors explain variance in adolescent substance use (Hawkins, Catalano, & Miller, 1992). This is consistent with the concept of equifinality, the notion of multiple pathways leading to one outcome (Cicchetti & Rogosch, Correspondence regarding this article and requests for reprints should be directed to Rebecca C.

In early and middle childhood, parenting factors are particularly important, as parents are the primary socializing agents f...
