Résumé :
Monitoring the Futures main data collection involves a series of large, annual surveys of nationally representative samples of public and private secondary school students throughout the coterminous United States. Every year since 1975, a national sample of 12th graders has been surveyed. In 1991, the study was expanded to include comparable, independent national samples of 8th and 10th graders. The year 2008 marked the 34th survey of 12th graders and the 18th survey of 8th and 10th graders. Overall, this was another year of modest change in the use of most illicit drugs, much as was true in 2005-2007. Looking across Tables 1-4, one can see that very few one-year changes (2007-2008) reached statistical significance, and those that did showed declines. In particular, amphetamines showed a significant decrease again this year in lifetime, annual, and 30-day prevalence rates; all of these declines were small this year, but many of them continue previous trends. Ritalin showed further decline this year in two of the three grades, though the declines were not statistically significant. Other significant declines for all three grades combined occurred for annual prevalence of cocaine and crack and for 30-day prevalence of any illicit drug other than marijuana. Some other drugs continued their gradual downward trends this year; though the 20072008 changes are not significant, these declines have cumulated across the years to become significant, both statistically and substantively, including use of any illicit drug, amphetamines, Ritalin specifically, methamphetamine, and crystal methamphetamine (ice). Most of the modest declines this year occurred for the stimulant drugs, including cocaine and crack. (Extract of the publication)
