Adventures in the Classroom and Our Nation's Capital chronicles my career as a social studies teacher. Starting in Connecticut and upstate New York, you will read the struggles of a young teacher learning his craft in diff erent public and private, rural, suburban, and small town schools while also searching for meaning in America and American history. After arriving in northern Virginia, I immediately took advantage of nearby Washington, DC, for…
A Test of Biosocial Models of Adolescent Cigarette and Alcohol Involvement
We tested biosocial models that posit interactions between biological variables (testosterone, estradiol, pubertal status, and pubertal timing) and social context variables (family, peer, school, and neighborhood) in predicting adolescent involvement with cigarettes and alcohol in a sample of 409 adolescents in grades 6 and 8. Models including the biological and contextual variables and their interactions explained significantly more variance in …
The Peer Context of Adolescent Substance Use
To examine the peer context of adolescent substance use, social network analysis was used to measure three domains of attributes of peer networks: social embeddedness, social status, and social proximity to substance users. The sample was a panel of 5,104 sixth, seventh, and eighth graders in three public school systems surveyed every 6 months for five assessments. Hierarchical generalized linear models showed that adolescents less embedded in th…
Victimization, use of violence, and drug use at school among male adolescents who engage in same-sex sexual behavior
The Association Between Health Risk Behaviors and Sexual Orientation Among a School-based Sample of Adolescents
Objective. This study is one of the first to examine the association between sexual orientation and health risk behaviors among a representative, school-based sample of adolescents. Design. This study was conducted on an anonymous, representative sample of 4159 9th- to 12th-grade students in public high schools from Massachusetts' expanded Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 1995 Youth Risk Behavior Survey. Sexual orientation was determine…
Tobacco and alcohol use behaviors portrayed in music videos
OBJECTIVES: Music videos from five genres of music were analyzed for portrayals of tobacco and alcohol use and for portrayals of such behaviors in conjunction with sexuality. METHODS: Music videos (n = 518) were recorded during randomly selected days and times from four television networks. Four female and four male observers aged 17 to 24 years were trained to use a standardized content analysis instrument. All videos were observed by rotating t…
Factors associated with the use of violence among urban black adolescents
OBJECTIVES. The purpose of this study was to examine social and psychological factors associated with the use and nonuse of violence among Black adolescents living in a community with a high level of violent crime. METHODS. Adolescents (n = 225, 44% male) 11 to 19 years of age living in or around nine housing projects in an urban area were administered an anonymous questionnaire. RESULTS. Self-reported use of violence was associated with exposure…
Social Integration, Victimization, and Anomia
Durkheim argues that anomie occurs as a result of some temporary or longterm crisis that disturbs the collective order. Yet, at the individual level an event or events must be perceived as affecting immediate social relationships before anomia occurs. Previous victimization research reports suggest that crimes may cause interaction problems for the victims. This passibility was analyzed using two notional samples collected by the Notional Opinion…

A Test of Biosocial Models of Adolescent Cigarette and Alcohol Involvement
We tested biosocial models that posit interactions between biological variables (testosterone, estradiol, pubertal status, and pubertal timing) and social context variables (family, peer, school, and neighborhood) in predicting adolescent involvement with cigarettes and alcohol in a sample of 409 adolescents in grades 6 and 8. Models including the biological and contextual variables and their interactions explained significantly more variance in …
