Annotation

This bibliography describes the latest information on alcohol, tobacco, and other drug use and prevention among American youth.

Abstract

The bibliography consists of an indexed collection of 234 references, with abstracts, to the literature. The main focus is on research, including epidemiological surveys, investigations of risk factors, and prevention and intervention program evaluations. These documents tend to emphasize the need to generate more comprehensive psychosocial approaches, rather than single-strategy approaches, to drug use prevention among adolescents. The bibliography lists documents alphabetically by author. The topic index lists entries for subjects, specific drugs, and specific populations covered, and there is a separate document type index.
