Background: Adolescent substance use is highly prevalent and problematic; it has been reported as one of the most pertinent leading health concerns in the United States. The current longitudinal study examined the presence of peer and parental interpersonal relationship consequences (IP) as a motivating factor in activating coping skills to decrease the frequency of adolescent substance use, while further evaluating the role of impulsivity within that process. Objectives: Two main hypotheses were proposed: (1) IP will decrease substance use frequency mediated by increases in motivation and temptation coping; and (2) impulsivity will moderate the link between coping and substance use frequency. Participants included 343 adolescents between the ages of 13-19 (M = 16.23) referred to Project READY, a school-based substance use intervention. Assessments were completed during Sessions 1 and 4 of the intervention. Results: Serial mediation analyses indicated temptation coping, baseline alcohol use, and Time 2 marijuana use were the only statistically significant predictors of Time 2 alcohol use. Temptation coping and baseline marijuana use were the only statistically significant predictors of Time 2 marijuana use. Conclusions: Once adolescents’ baseline and concurrent substance use were incorporated into the model, there was no statistical significance of the indirect effects. Results provided a stronger examination of the factors related to long-term substance use among adolescents. Knowing that temptation coping and baseline substance use levels were significant predictors of time 2 substance use independent of interpersonal consequences and motivation to change provides a structural frame and highlights need for early intervention
