Downs, William R.; Robertson, Joan F.; Harrison, Larry R. – Adolescence, 1997
Analyzes baseline variables to examine associations among control and labeling theory variables, diversion, gender, and drug use. Results show that changes in drug use over time appeared to be a function of several complicated processes. Reports other findings and suggests that studies of deviant behavior need to be multitheoretical. (RJM)
