Depressive Symptoms Over the Course of Adolescence Among Latinx Children of Immigrants and Non-immigrants and White Youth From Small Towns in the United States
A Descriptive Study of Interpersonal Discrimination Experiences in US Black, American Indian and Alaska Native, and Latine Young Adults as Characterized by Intersections of Sex, and Immigrant Generati…
Assessment of Measurement Equivalence of the Communities That Care Brief Depression Scale by Immigrant Generation Status in Latinx Youth
We assessed the Communities That Care Brief Depression Scale (CTC‐BDS) for measurement equivalence for Latinx and white youth by immigrant generation status. The sample consisted of 1779 youth (17.8% Latinx children of immigrants [COI], 9.3% Latinx children of non‐immigrants [CONI], 72.8% non‐Latinx white CONI) surveyed in sixth, eighth, tenth, and twelfth grades. We used one‐factor confirmatory factor analysis to examine equivalent assessment ac…
A Window Into the Lives of Rural Latinx Young Adults: A Qualitative Study of Adult Roles and Transitions
We described the experiences of a sample of rural Latinx young adults to identify relevant adult roles and events from their unique perspectives at ages 21 and 26 focusing on heterogeneity by age, sex, and immigrant generational status. Using survey data collected in 2014 ( n = 308) and 2019 ( n = 285) from respondents who grew up in two rural US towns, we qualitatively examined responses to an open‐ended question; explored thematic patterns acro…
Young Adults’ Cannabis Environments and their Cannabis Use and Misuse
Trends in Driving Under the Influence of Alcohol and Cannabis Among Young Adults in Washington State From Before to During the Covid-19 Pandemic
Objectives. To examine trends in young adult self-reported driving under the influence of alcohol (DUI-A), cannabis (DUI-C), and simultaneous alcohol and cannabis use (DUI-AC) in a state with legalized nonmedical cannabis use from before to during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods. We used logistic regression and annual statewide data from the Washington Young Adult Health Survey to assess DUI behaviors from 2016 to 2021. Results. Both prepandemic y…
Community-Based Child Labor Trafficking Prevention in Ghana: A Rights-Based Approach
There are 152 million children in the world who are victims of child laborers are found in Africa; 73 million are involved in hazardous labor. Almost half of child labor (72.1 million) is found in Africa. One in five children in Africa (19.6%) is a child laborer, whilst prevalence in other regions such as Arab States, Asia, and Europe is between three percent and seven percent (International Labor Organization). This study evaluates a community-b…
Substance-Specific Risk Factors among Young Adults: Potential Prevention Targets across Cannabis-Permissive Environments
PURPOSE: This study examined levels of substance-specific risk factors such as perception of harm from substance use among young adults in a range of cannabis-permissive environments. The main objective was to inform future preventive interventions aimed at reducing cannabis use in the context of increasingly permissive environments. METHODS: = 1,722 participants residing in 46 U.S. states). Young adults self-reported their perceptions about the …
Retail cannabis environment and adolescent use: The role of advertising and retailers near home and school
Cannabis Use Among Young Adults in Washington State After Legalization of Nonmedical Cannabis
Objectives. To examine changes in prevalence of cannabis use and of cannabis use disorder symptomatology among young adults from 2014 to 2019 in Washington State, where nonmedical (or “recreational”) cannabis was legalized in 2012 and retail stores opened in July 2014. Methods. We used 6 years of cross-sectional data collected annually from 2014 (premarket opening) to 2019 from 12 963 (∼2000 per year) young adults aged 18 to 25 years residing in …
Cumulative Neighborhood Risk and Subsequent Internalizing Behavior among Asian American Adolescents
Long-Term Effects of the Communities That Care Trial on Substance Use, Antisocial Behavior, and Violence Through Age 21 Years
Objectives. To evaluate whether the effects of the Communities That Care (CTC) prevention system, implemented in early adolescence to promote positive youth development and reduce health-risking behavior, endured through age 21 years. Methods. We analyzed 9 waves of prospective data collected between 2004 and 2014 from a panel of 4407 participants (grade 5 through age 21 years) in the community-randomized trial of the CTC system in Colorado, Illi…
Neighborhood, Family, and Peer Factors Associated with Early Adolescent Smoking and Alcohol Use
An Examination of Alcohol Use Disorder Symptoms and Neighborhood Disorganization from Age 21 to 39
Highlights Neighborhood disorganization predicted increased severity of Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD) symptoms. Neighborhood disorganization predicted increased likelihood of experiencing psychological distress. Psychological distress partially mediated the association of neighborhood disorganization and AUD. Associations persisted net of important risk and protective factors for AUD
Assessment of Risk and Protection in Native American Youth: Steps Toward Conducting Culturally Relevant, Sustainable Prevention in Indian Country
This study constitutes a building block in the cultural adaptation of Communities That Care (CTC), a community‐based prevention system that has been found to be effective in reducing youth problem behaviors. Using the data from the CTC normative survey dataset that comprises more than a quarter million youth nationwide, this study examines the reliability and validity of scores derived from the CTC Youth Survey (CTC‐YS), one of the primary assess…
Reading and Math Achievement among Low-Income Urban Latino Youth: The Role of Immigration
Using data from a household-based, stratified random sample of youth and their caregivers from low-income inner-city neighborhoods, this study examined the variability in the academic achievement of Latino youth. The results indicate a significant advantage in reading achievement for first- and second-generation immigrant youth, as compared to the third generation, which persisted even after controlling for important child, parenting, human capit…
Trajectories of marijuana use from adolescence into adulthood: Environmental and individual correlates
This study sought to identify trajectories of marijuana use in the Seattle Social Development Project (n = 808) sample from age 14 through 30, and to examine the extent to which individuals in these trajectories differed in their substance use problems, mental health, problem behavior, economic outcomes, and positive functioning at age 33. In addition, analyses examined between-trajectory differences in family, peer, school, neighborhood, individ…
Unemployment and substance use problems among young adults: Does childhood low socioeconomic status exacerbate the effect
The association between parent early adult drug use disorder and later observed parenting practices and child behavior problems: Testing alternate models
This study tested the association between parent illicit drug use disorder (DUD) in early adulthood and observed parenting practices at ages 27-28 and examined the following 3 theoretically derived models explaining this link: (a) a disrupted parent adult functioning model,(b) a preexisting parent personality factor model, and (c) a disrupted adolescent family process model. Associations between study variables and child externalizing problems al…
Long-term implications of welfare reform for the development of adolescents and young adults
Internalizing and Externalizing Behavior Problem Scores: Cross-Ethnic and Longitudinal Measurement Invariance of the Behavior Problem Index
Accurate measurement of behavioral functioning is a cornerstone of research on disparities in child development. This study used the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1979 (NLSY79) data to test measurement invariance of the Behavior Problem Index (BPI) during middle childhood across three ethnic groups. Using the internalizing and externalizing behavior problem division derived by Parcel and Menaghan (1988) and suggested for use with NLSY79 d…
Early reading achievement of children in immigrant families: Is there an immigrant paradox
This article examines whether longitudinal reading trajectories vary by the generational status of immigrant children as they begin formal schooling through the 3rd grade. The results of the hierarchical linear model indicated that 1st and 2nd generation children (i.e., those born in a foreign country and those born in the United States to foreign-born parents, respectively) had higher achievement scores at the spring of kindergarten than did 3rd…
