TL;DR: Age-specific prevalences are provided for nine disorders in a general population sample of ages 10-20 and the pattern of specific diagnoses varied greatly by both age and gender.
Journal Article
The psychosocial etiology of adolescent drug use: a family interactional approach.
TL;DR: A developmental model with two components; the first deals with adolescent pathways to drug use, and the second incorporates childhood factors, finding that individual protective factors could offset risk factors and enhance other protective factors, resulting in less adolescent marijuana use.
Journal ArticleDOI
Drug use and the risk of major depressive disorder, alcohol dependence, and substance use disorders.
TL;DR: The results suggest that early drug use is associated with and predicts later psychiatric disorders and preventive implications stem from the importance of studying a range of psychiatric disorders in the context of substance use assessed over a wide age range.
Journal ArticleDOI
Longitudinal Study of Co-occurring Psychiatric Disorders and Substance Use
TL;DR: A significant relationship was found between earlier adolescent drug use and later depressive and disruptive disorders in young adulthood, controlling for earlier psychiatric disorders as discussed by the authors, which did not predict changes in young adult drug use.
Journal ArticleDOI
An Epidemiological Study of Disorders in Late Childhood and Adolescence—II. Persistence of Disorders
TL;DR: It is concluded that disorders assessed by structured interview of non-clinical samples of children cannot be dismissed as transitory and demonstrated substantial levels of diagnostic persistence over the 2 1/2 year period for all diagnoses except major depression.
