Abstract
Data from an ongoing longitudinal study of juvenile detainees are used to test a structural model of the relationships among their alcohol/other drug use and other delinquent behavior, their family problems, and friends' troubled behavior. The hypothesized model fitted the data well. Implications of the results are drawn in regard to theory and program policy.Keywords
