Résumé :
FRANÇAIS :
Cet article propose un étude de linfluence de la famille, des pairs et de lécole, de lusage de drogue connu chez les étudiants, de lusage de drogues au sein de la famille et du faible niveau culturel sur le comportement de jeunes dorigine mexicaine. Le fonctionnement et lusage de drogues par la famille ont une influence sur lusage de drogues chez les garçons. Le fonctionnement familial a une influence sur la scolarité et lattitude envers les pairs bien que ces dernières naient aucune relation avec lusage de drogues. Chez les filles, lusage familial et lusage des autres étudiants influencent directement lusage de drogues. Le fonctionnement familial a une influence sur lusage familial et lattachement à lécole et aux pairs.
ENGLISH :
While adolescent substance use has been the focus of extensive research over the last few decades, Hispanic adolescent substance use has received only limited attention. Studies exploring predictors of Hispanic adolescent substance use have failed to adequately explore the contribution of the family on substance use. The present study examined the relative influence of family, school and peer influences, perceived student substance use, family substance use, and acculturation on a sample of Mexican-American early adolescents using structural equations modeling. The findings varied for males and females. Family functioning and family use directly influenced substance use for males. Family functioning influenced school and peer variables, however, these were unrelated to use. For females, family use and student use directly influenced substance use. Family functioning influenced family use and school and peer attachments. School and peer attachment predicted perceived student use. These findings suggest that family functioning has a primary role in Hispanic adolescent substance use. (Author' s abstract)
