Racial Disparities in a Teen Pregnancy Prevention Program
BACKGROUND: Despite overall declines in risky teen sexual activity, racial and ethnic disparities persist. This study compared abstinence-only and comprehensive teen pregnancy prevention (TPP) programs to explore the effects of the programs on teen sexual activity-related outcomes that may differ by race/ethnicity. METHODS: Program evaluation data were collected from 7th-grade students in comprehensive (N = 3244) and abstinence-only (N = 3172) TP…
Youth Assets and Initiation of Sexual Intercourse by Family Structure
BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to assess the protective influence of individual, family, and community assets from the initiation of sexual intercourse (ISI) for adolescents living in one-parent households compared with adolescents living in two-parent households.

Prospective Associations Between Youth Assets and Truancy Within the Context of Family Structure
BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to examine the prospective associations between 17 individual, family, and community level youth assets and truancy among adolescents living in 1-parent and 2-parent households. METHODS: Five waves of data were collected annually over a 4-year period from a racially/ethnically diverse sample of adolescents (N = 722, 51.5% female, mean age = 14.1 years). Generalized linear mixed models were used to identif…
Youth Assets, Neighborhood Factors, Parental Income, and Tobacco Use
This study aimed to assess how the relationship between youth assets and future no-tobacco use among youth might differ according to race/ethnicity, neighborhood factors and socio-economic status. Five waves of annual data were collected from 1111 youth/parent pairs living in Oklahoma, USA who were randomly selected to participate in the Youth Asset Study (YAS). A marginal logistic regression model using all five waves of no-tobacco use, demograp…

Prospective Associations Among Youth Assets and Alcohol, Tobacco, and Other Drug Use in a Hispanic Youth Population
This study’s purpose was to determine whether specific youth assets (conceptualized as influencing health behavior at the individual, family, or community level) were prospectively associated with reduced alcohol, tobacco, and other drug use (ATD) in a sample of Hispanic youth. A longitudinal community-based study was conducted with five waves of data collected annually over 4 years. Participants were Hispanic youth (14.1 years old; 53% female) a…
Prospective impact of individual, family and community youth assets on adolescent suicide ideation
BACKGROUND: Studies have found that youth assets have a protective influence on many risk behaviours. However, the relationship between youth assets and adolescent suicide ideation is poorly understood. The purpose of this study was to determine if youth assets were prospectively associated with suicide ideation. METHODS: Four waves of data were collected from 1111 youth and their parents living in randomly sampled census tracts that were stratif…
Adolescent Pregnancy Prevention Among Youths Living in Group Care Homes
Objectives. To determine if the Power Through Choices (PTC) intervention can increase the use of birth control and reduce pregnancy among system-involved youths living in group care homes. Methods. We performed a 2-arm cluster randomized controlled trial involving group care homes operated by child welfare or juvenile justice systems in California, Maryland, and Oklahoma with assessments immediately before and after the intervention, and at 6- an…
Adolescent Pregnancy Prevention in Group Homes
The authors discuss the issues of teenage pregnancy for youth in group homes. They mention the use of the Power Through Choices intervention program for prevention of pregnancy, the recruitment of group homes in which to implement the program, and the problems of tracking participants in the program
Demographic Factors Predict Disparities in Number of Assets Youth Possess
Youth assets may be 1 mechanism that explains the negative effects of some demographic factors, particularly 1-parent families and low-parent education, on youth risk behaviors and health
The Predictive Influence of Youth Assets on Drinking and Driving Behaviors in Adolescence and Young Adulthood
Prospective Associations Among Assets and Successful Transition to Early Adulthood
Objectives. We investigated prospective associations among assets (e.g., family communication), which research has shown to protect youths from risk behavior, and successful transition to early adulthood (STEA). Methods. We included participants (n = 651) aged 18 years and older at study wave 5 (2007–2008) of the Youth Asset Study, in the Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, metro area, in the analyses. We categorized 14 assets into individual-, family-, or …
Prospective Association Between Negative Life Events and Initiation of Sexual Intercourse
Objectives. We examined the prospective association between negative life events and time to initiation of sexual intercourse and the influence of family structure and family income on this association. Methods. We followed up a randomly selected sample (n = 649) of ethnically diverse parents and their children aged 12 to 17 years over a 5-year period. We conducted Cox proportional hazards regression analysis to examine the relation between negat…
Prospective Associations between Negative Life Events and Youth Tobacco Use
Interventions to prevent tobacco use should focus on youth with a recent history of NLEs, regardless of family education and family structure
Methodological Considerations in a Community-Based Longitudinal Study
In order for community-based longitudinal studies to overcome barriers to enrollment and retention, particular attention must be given to appropriate planning and available resources
Youth Assets and Delayed Coitarche Across Developmental Age Groups
Cross-sectional studies suggest that assets are associated with youth abstinence, but whether these relationships are constant across developmental age groups has not been shown. Data for this study were obtained from two independent datasets collected across a 2-year period using in-person, in-home interviews of youth (52% female; 44% Caucasian, 23% Hispanic, 23% African-American, 10% other) and their parents (N = 2163 youth/parent pairs). Eight…
Protective Assets for Non-use of Alcohol, Tobacco and Other Drugs among Urban American Indian Youth in Oklahoma
Parental communication and youth sexual behaviour
The role of parental communication and instruction concerning sexual behaviour were studied in a community‐based sample of 1083 youth aged 13–17 (mean age of 15 years; 51% girls, 49% White). The Youth Asset Survey was administered along with items measuring demographics and youth risk behaviours. After controlling for demographic factors, multivariate analysis revealed that youth were much less likely to have initiated sexual intercourse if their…
Does Family Structure Matter in the Relationships Between Youth Assets and Youth Alcohol, Drug and Tobacco Use
This study investigated significant relationships between youth assets and youth alcohol, tobacco, and drug use that differ according to family structure (one‐ or two‐parent households). Data were collected from a randomly sampled inner‐city population ( n =1,256 teenagers and 1,256 parents of the teenagers) using in‐home, in‐person interviews. Logistic regression analyses, stratifying by one‐ and two‐parent household status, were conducted with …

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to explore contextual factors related to physical activity among senior citizens l…
The Potential Protective Effect of Youth Assets on Adolescent Alcohol and Drug Use
Objectives. We examined the association between adolescent alcohol and drug use and 9 youth assets in a low-income, inner-city population. Methods. An in-person survey of 1350 adolescents and parents assessed youth assets and risk behaviors. We analyzed data with χ 2 tests and logistic regression analyses. Results. When we controlled for appropriate variables, there were significant positive relationships between several youth assets and nonuse o…
