description | This study assessed the relative influence of the perceived level of support for an adolescent's alcohol use by best friends, most students in school, live-in parents/guardians and most adults in neighorbhood/community on adolescent current drinking, heavy drinking and frequent drinking prevalence rates. Anonymous self reported questionnaires were completed by 83,669 students, most of the 6th, 8th, and 11th grades enrolled in Iowa's public schools. Best friends perceived level of support proved to be most highly correlated with the decision by adolescents to use alcohol, but there was evidence that the influence of best friend's unequivocal approval of drinking could be significantly moderated by the perceived unequivocal disapproval of drinking by the other reference groups. There were some differences in the findings by sex and grade in school, as well as the different kinds of drinking behavior (any use and extent of use) investigates, and some, but not most, may have practical prevention planning consequences. Primary and secondary alcohol prevention programs that are designed to encourage unequivocal disapproval of drinking by any of the four reference groups have the potential to significantly reduce adolescent drinking-related prevalence rates. Prevention programs that include all four reference groups would be expected to have the most impact on adolescent drinking behaviors. |
