Abstract
Analysis was made of data gathered in a winter 1974/75 survey of 7th through 12th grade youngsters attending public schools in New York State to learn the credibility of various sources of information on drugs. The results showed important relationships to hold between the youths' involvement with substances and their belief in the media and nonmedia information sources that were probed.Keywords
