Résumé :
The aim was to examine the relationship between part-time work and experimentation with drugs among Finnish adolescents. The cross-sectional survey data (School Health Promotion Survey, n - 47 568) were collected in classrooms in Spring 2000, Respondents were between 14.3 and 16.2 years old. The response rate was 82I. Drug use during the past 30 days, work intensity and work type measures were obtained from self-administered questionnaires. Polychotomous logistic regression was used as the main method of analysis. Working more than 10 h per week was associated with an increased likelihood of frequent drug use (five times or more), but not of occasional experiments. Similarly, engagement in some types of 'adult-like' work was significantly associated with an increased likelihood of frequent drug use. Adult-like jobs are jobs that are typically held by adults in Finland, and are also generally more formal.
