TL;DR: The authors found that when non-White adolescents were in families with both parents, and the father had at least a high school education, did they drink near the rate of White adolescents.
Abstract: Family structure is related to adolescents' drinking behavior differently for Blacks than Whites. Black adolescents were more likely to be heavy alcohol users when both natural parents were present, but the opposite was true for the whites. Only when non-White adolescents were in families with both parents, and the father had at least a high school education, did they drink near the rate of White adolescents. There was support of social learning theory.

TL;DR: In this paper, the law of propagation for light has the same form for all macroscopic observers, i.e., observers who may be large, but not infinitely large, by comparison with quantum mechanical systems.
Abstract: The relativity principle that the law of propagation for light has the same form for all macroscopic observers is extended to include quantum observers; i.e., observers who may be large, but not infinitely large, by comparison with quantum mechanical systems. This leads to the extension of the covariance group from the diffeomorphisms to the conservation group (which is the largest group of coordinate transformations under which conservation laws are covariant statements) and, thus, to the quantum geometry and quantum unified field theory considered in a previous paper.
