Résumé :
FRANÇAIS :
Cette enquête confirme l'importance de l'usage de produits chez les jeunes adolescents américains qui viennent se faire soigner, et en montre la gravité. Les tests psychiatriques permettent de confirmer l'augmentation des syndromes dépressifs avec l'âge. Les troubles anorexie-boulimie sont plus fréquents chez les adolescents les plus âgés.
ENGLISH :
One hundred adolescents aged 14 to 20 were studied in treatment programs located in two states (Minnesota and Oklahoma). The purpose of the study was to assess the course of substance use, number and type of substance disorder diagnoses, severity of substance disorder, treatment history for substance disorder, and psychiatric comorbidity. The data confirm the severity of substance use among younger adolescents presenting to clinical facilities with substance disorder, but further reveal progressive substance severity as these adolescents age. Both self rated and psychiatrist rated scales showed increased depressive symptoms with increasing age. Eating Disorders occured more often among older adolescents. Loss of either parent in childhood was associated with younger current age. (From the authors' abstract)
