Abstract
A classroom drug-education program was evaluated in the field to determine if it changed attitudes toward the abuse of marijuana, stimulants, depressants, LSD, and heroin. The subjects were 80 7th graders from middle-class homes. The results indicated that the program did not significantly change drug-abuse attitudes.Keywords
