Abstract: | The more the deviation from a sex-and-grade, self-concept score norm (as indexed on a pair-comparisons, adjectival inventory), the greater the incidence of reported drug use. This assertion applies (a) to both sexes (teenagers) for beer and wine, cigarettes, hard liquor, and marijuana, and (b) to males alone for speed and LSD.The first-named author developed the deviancy scale; both authors processed data. In the latter task, they were assisted by Mrs. Edith P. Ferguson, wife of second-named author. |
