Abstract
The relationship between subjective expected utility (SEU) and the use of beer and distilled spirits by adolescents is examined. A panel design with 1339 subjects who began the study as 7th graders indicated that there were reciprocal relationships between SEU and behavior. SEU should be considered when attempts are made to explain adolescent drinking behavior.This publication has 6 references indexed in Scilit:
