Using structural equation modelling, this study tries to incorporate a set of personal and interpersonal factors to predict marijuana use among a sample of adolescents in two US cities. The study found that sensation seeking, rather than impulsive decision making contributes directly to adolescents' marijuana use, while their indirect contributions on marijuana use work through the interplay of demographic variables, risk and protective factors, the adolescents' beliefs and attitudes toward marijuana use, and the adolescents' intentions to using marijuana. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: research tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
