Résumé :
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and/or conduct disorder (CD) have been found to be associated with substance use disorders and cigarette smoking among adolescents. However, studies have often failed to explore these relationships among females from a dimensional perspective, taking into account comorbidity between ADHD and CD symptomatology, and examining AADHD symptom subtypes (i.e., inattention and hyperactivity/impulsivity) separately as they relate to substance involvement and smoking characteristics. This study takes each of the above into consideration when examining the relationship between externalizing symptomatology and substance involvement characteristics in a sample of 191(62.3% female, mean age =15A years) inpatient adolescent smokers. The results of this study suggest that ADHD and CD symptoms may be related to different types of substance use characteristics. CD symptoms were associated with early onset of substance involvement and ADHD symptoms were related to alcohol and marijuana frequency. ADHD inattention symptoms, but not hyperactivity/impulsivity symptoms, were associated with marijuana and nicotine dependence. Lastly, significant interactions suggested that ADJID symptoms among boys and CD symptoms among girls were related infrequency of any type of substance use prior to inpatient hospitalization. The results of this study point to potentially important clinical implications such as tailoring prevention and intervention efforts according to type of externalizing symptomatology and gender.
