Résumé :
FRANÇAIS :
Cette étude s'efforce d'étendre la base empirique de la Théorie interactive en : 1) explorant la relation des variables contextuelles associées aux systèmes d'influence socio-culturelle avec la prévision situationnelle d'usage de drogue et d'alcool ; 2) examinant la force de cette relation supposée en la comparant à la force de la relation entre prévision situationnelle d'usage et cinq variables pour lesquelles la littérature a garanti la relation.
ENGLISH :
The relationship between contextual variables and situational expectation of drug and alcohol use at the school level suggested by Interactive theory was investigated. A canonical correlation analysis supported a significant relationship between situational expectation of drug and alcohol use and several contextual variables including Students' Perceptions of What Teachers Expect of Them Academically, Percentage of White Students, and the Prosperity of the School. The results indicated that the more prosperous the school and the greater the students' perceptions of what teachers expect of them academically, the lower the situational expectation of smoking cigarettes or taking depressants and the higher the percentage of white students the higher the situational expectation of drinking beer and liquor. Implications for prevention programs and school environment are discussed. (Author's abstract)
