Purposes of Surveys Drug and alcohol use among children and adolescents remains the most important factor impacting the health and well-being of youth in the Southeast region. As school community teams mobilized in the region a critical first step for each team was to determine the nature and scope of the youth alcohol and other drug use problem in the community. The PRIDE Drug Use Questionnaire was administered in local schools by each team to obtain drug use prevalence information, information on age of first use, time and locaticn of use, friends' use, perceptions of harmfulness, student characteristics and demographics. These data were used by teams in a variety of ways to inform their communities about the drug problem, plan targeted prevention and intervention programs and chart the course of drug usage over time. Specific information on drugs of choice, frequency of use, location and time of use and beginning age of use by children in a particular school confronts community denial head- on and provides an informed basis for anti-drug use action planning. The initial questionnaire administration yields base line data on the problem. Annual or biannual resurveys allow communities to monitor usage over time and to measure the impact of anti-drug use initiatives. The Center had planned to follow the progress of thirty-six teams (three communities in each state in the region) longitudinally over the next four year period through 1 the resurvey process to measure the effectiveness of the school community team model. This report contains the composite information from team administrations of the questionnaire to 6th through 12th graders throughout the Southeast region during school year 1988-89. I.B. Survey Procedures School community teams were selected through an application process that insured teams were distributed geographically throughout each state. Teams represented a mix of rural, suburban and urban schools and communities. Each team designated one or more schools in the community it intended to influence and the PRIDE Questionnaire was administered to students in those schools. Thus, there was a systematic selection of the teams (six new teams in each state each year) and these teams were designated as impact schools to be surveyed. The school-based surveys were school census studies and included all students present at school on the day the questionnaire was administered. The 1988-89 report contains initial survey data from new and previously surveyed communities. The eleven states or areas included in the combined report are: Alabama, District of Columbia, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Virginia and West Virginia. Data from Puerto Rico were not collected in 1988-89 so this report does not represent Puerto Rico. In 1988-89, approximately 50,000 students (n = 49,907) in the 2 Southeast region were surveyed as part of the SERC programs. This sample consisted of 10,922 students in grades 6 through 8 (junior high students) and 38,985 students in grade 9 through 12 (senior high students). The number of male and female students were about the same with 49.4 percent male and 50.6 percent female. About 66.1 percent were White, 26.3 percent were Black, 3.9 percent were Hispanic, and the remaining 3.7 percent were Asian and Native American. Father's full-time employment rate was 84.5 percent. Mother's full-time employment rate was 60.9 percent. Over 18 percent of the junior high students and over 30 percent of the senior high students reported part-time employment. About 24 percent of the students reported fathers with less than a high school education, and 24 percent with a college degree. Mother's educational levels were 21 percent with less than a high school education and 21 percent with a college degree. Appendix B contains more specific demographic information about the sample of students in the 1988- 89 school/community team surveys of adolescent drug and alcohol use. I.C. The Report Results of the SERC 1988-89 surveys of adolescent alcohol and other drug use are reported in this document. These surveys were combined into a summary data set and provide a tremendous amount of percentage data for analyses (see Appendix B). To place this information in a more manageable and usable form, selected data 3 were reported and discussed in Chapters II and III. It should be understood that the data contained in Appendix B were utilized as the source data for tables and graphs in Chapters II and III. Therefore, the reader may wish to consult tables in Appendix B for more detailed study of the survey findings. After the Introduction chapter, Chapter I, the report is arranged in three additional chapters. Chapter II: Gateway Drugs contains information on cigarettes, alcohol, and marijuana for the 1988-89 school year. The three forms of alcohol included in the survey were beer, wine coolers, and liquor. Chapter. III contains information on other illicit drugs for the school years 1988-89. Other illicit drugs were cocaine, uppers (stimulants), downers (depressants), inhalants, and hallucinogens. Chapters II and III include percentage tables and graphs regarding prevalence and patterns of use of the various drugs included in the survey. Tables and graphs are located at the end of the section in which they are referenced. It should be noted that in some cases drug use was very low among students, particularly illicit drug use in junior high. In these cases summary statements were made to this effect without elaborating further. Chapter IV: Recommendations contains a brief summary and recommendations formulated from conducting surveys in the Southeast region. Appendix A contains a copy of the PRIDE Questionnaire used to gather data in the SERC surveys and, as already mentioned, Appendix B contains tables and selected graphs of data from the combined SERC surveys in 1988-89. 4 Chapter II: GATEWAY DRUGS 1988-89 The "gateway drugs" are defined in this report as cigarettes, alcohol and marijuana. In most states, alcohol and tobacco products are illegal when used by minors, but are legal when used by adults. However, they are generally easy to obtain and are widely used among the adolescent population. The alcoholic beverages surveyed were beer, wine coolers, and liquor. Although marijuana is itself a dangerous illicit drug, it often leads to use of more toxic and addictive drugs. Thus, marijuana is also considered a "gateway drug" because of its role in escalating drug use. II.A. Use of Gateway Drugs Prevalence of drug and alcohol use rates are probably the most used and reported findings from any drug survey. The PRIDE Questionnaire obtained student responses to questions on 1) first use of gateway drugs, 2) annual use of gateway drugs, and 3) intoxicating effects resulting from use of gateway drugs. These data provide useful information on the prevalence and patterns of gateway drug use. The reader is encouraged to study data for these items in Appendix B for more in-depth understanding of gateway drug use patterns. II.A.1 First Use of Gateway Drugs Information on the approximate age that students first use gateway drugs is important since prevention programs usually target 5 1 students with age specific as well as drug specific information. It is also important from the standpoint that early use of these drugs often leads to problems with dependency later in adolescence or adulthood. Finally, the early use of gateway drugs predicts later use of the more toxic and addictive illicit drugs such as cocaine and hallucinogens. II.A.l.a First Use of Cigarettes Although tobacco is not usually considered to be a mind- altering or intoxicating drug, cigarettes are highly addicting and are considered one of the "gateway drugs" that can lead to use of illicit drugs such as marijuana. In most states it is illegal for minors 17 years of age or younger to purchase or smoke cigarettes, but enforcement of this law is generally lax in the region. Cigarettes are not included in questions involving intoxicating effects of use or availability. Students reported the age of first use of cigarettes as occurring across the entire age span sampled (from "Under 10" years to "Over 20" years). The most common ages of first use of cigarettes by senior high students were reported in the range of 12 to 15 years with 27.2 percent of these students reporting using cigarettes during this period. For junior high students, 19.7 percent reported first use of cigarettes at or below age 11. Tables II.A.1. and II.A.2. contains percentage data on first use of cigarettes for junior and senior high school students, respectively. 6 10 II.A.1.b First Use of Alcohol Students in grades 6 through 12 were asked to respond to the questions "When did you first drink beer?," "drink wine coolers?," and "drink liquor?" Tables II.A.1. and II.A.2. contain summary responses to these questions by junior high and senior high students, respectively. There were different patterns of responses to these questions. And, there were different patterns of responses for the three types of alcoholic beverages. Early use of beer, 11 years or younger, was reported by 16.6 percent of the senior high students and 24.3 percent of the junior high students, suggesting that early alcohol use in the form of beer is not only common among students in the Southeast, but younger students may begin drinking earlier use than do older students. Of course, these data sets are not entirely comparable due to drop-outs in senior high school. A greater percentage of junior high students reported early use of wine coolers than did senior high students. From Tables II.A.1. and II.A.2. it can be seen that 14.6 percent of the younger students (grades 6, 7 and 8) reported drinking wine coolers at 11 years or younger, while only 5.5 percent of the older students (grades 9 through 12) reported drinking at this early age. This pattern may be partially explained by availability of the beverage. Wine coolers, a relatively new addition to the alcoholic beverage industry, has been widely advertised and available only in the past four to five years. The older upper classmen appeared to have been less affected by the advertising and/or availability of wine 7 coolers as junior high students than the current students in junior high school. Less than 7 percent of senior high students reported using liquor at age 11 or below. However, between the ages of 12 and 15 years, 33.6 percent of the senior high students reported drinking liquor. This was the age span where the largest percentage of students reported first use of beer and liquor. Early liquor use (ages 11 years and under) was more prevalent for junior high than for senior high students with 10.4 percent of junior high students reporting use before age 12. Patterns of liquor use above 12 and 13 years are not .::omparable given the age difference between junior and senior high students. II.A.l.c. First Use of Marijuana Age of first use of marijuana was measured along a continuum ranging from "Under 10" to "Over 20", with two year intervals used as response categories. Although the percentage of junior high students reporting using marijuanF was much less than for senior high students, junior high students' beginning use of marijuana was primarily in the age group of 12-13 years (3.1%). Very early use (11 years and below) of marijuana by senior high students was slightly greater than reported by junior high students. Unlike alcohol, this very early use of marijuana does not appear greater for junior high students than for senior high students. For the senior high students, wide-spread marijuana use seems to begin at age 12-13 and continues through age 17. Approximately 22.1 percent of the students in grades 9 through 12 8 reported first using marijuana between the ages of 12 to 17, with the age category 14-15 years containing the highest percentage (10.8%). Ta/les II.A.1. and contain the percentage data for age of first use of marijuana for junior and senior high school students. II.A.2. Freauencv of Gateway Drug Use Students were asked to respond to how often they used gateway drugs within the past year using an eight category response set ranging from "No Use" to "Daily Use" (see Appendix A). The Tabular Report, contains percentage data for the various frequency of use categories. In this narrative report, categories were collapsed into three use categories as follows: Infrequent = One to Six Times a Year Frequent = One or Two Times a Month Very Frequent = One to Three Times a Week or Daily. Tables containing frequency of gateway drug use appear at the end of this sub-section. The reader is encouraged to study the complete percentage tables in Appendix B for more detailed results. II.A.2.a. Frequency of Cigarette Use In general, the frequency of cigarette use increased with age of the students. By the time students were seniors in high school, 36.5 percent reported smoking cigarettes compared to 24.7 percent of the junior high school students (see Table II.A.3.). II.A.2.b. Frequency of Alcohol Use Use of alcohol by underage students is an illegal and dangerous practice and must be considered an abuse of this 9 13 otherwise legal drug. An important index of alcohol use is the frequency and extent that junior and senior high school students are involved with alcohol. It is important to examine the total number of students who reported using alcohol and the frequency of that use in order to better plan and implement strategies to reduce alcohol abuse. Tables II.A.3 and II.A.4 contain the percentage data for student reported use of beer, wine coolers, and liquor. Not surprisingly, when junior high students' use of alcohol was compared with senior high students, the total use by the older senior high students was greater. Figure II.A.1 graphically demonstrates the relationship between alcohol use and junior and senior high students. It is also important to note that when the categories of use were compared, the senior high students reported using alcohol more frequently. For example, of the junior high students who reported beer use, 20.6 percent responded to "Very Frequent" use. This "Very Frequent" use percentage for senior high beer drinkers increased to 31.2 percent. Liquor use was also much higher for high school students with more than twice as many senior high students reporting annual use of liquor (44.6%) as junior high students (19.0%). Implications of these findings are significant. Beer has been by far the most used form of alcohol by adolescents. Wine coolers have now equaled and even surpassed beer in popularity, even though this type of alcoholic beverage has been on the market only a short 10 4 time. Findings also suggest that use of alcohol by youth in the southeast region frequently constitutes more than casual use as demonstrated by the majority of drinking students reporting "Frequent" or "Very Frequent" use of beer and liquor. Alcohol use should be cause for concern by parents, educators, and others in communities throughout the southeast region. II.A.2.c. Frequency of Marijuana Use The relationship between grade level and marijuana use was more pronounced than for alcohol use. Tables II.A.3 and II.A.4. contain percentages that show more than 20 percent (20.3%) of the senior high school students reported at least annual marijuana use as compared to only 6.3 percent of the junior high school students. See Figure II.A.4. for a visual perspective of this relationship. The relationship of marijuana use and educational level becomes evident -- more students use marijuana as they get older and move into upper grades. One in five senior high students reported smoking marijuana at least once during the past year. II.A.3. Intoxicating Effects of Gateway Drug Use While SERC survey results have provided evidence of widespread use of gateway drugs by junior and senior high students, a second question of effects of gateway drug use needs to be addressed. Specifically, what levels of intoxication do adolescents attain when they drink alcoholic beverages or smoke marijuana? Do students report more "casual" or non-intoxicating use of gateway drugs, or do they report reaching high levels of intoxication? 13. 15 II.A.3.a. Intoxicating Effects of Alcohol Use To determine if students were using gateway drugs to get highly intoxicated, only those students who reported using the drugs were used to compute the percentage who became highly intoxicated when they drank alcohol. Percentages were computed for junior and senior high students who reported getting "Very High" or "Bombed/Stoned" when they drank alcoholic beverages. As can be seen from Table II.A.5., senior high students tended to become more intoxicated when drinking alcohol than did junior high students. For example, senior high students were twice as likely to report getting highly intoxicated as junior high students; 22.7 percent for senior high students to 11.2 percent for junior high students. Less than 10 percent of junior and senior high students who reported drinking wine coolers reported getting drunk, the lowest of the alcoholic beverages. A greater percentage of students at both levels reported getting highly intoxicated on liquor than for beer or wine coolers. For students who reported drinking liquor, nearly one third (31.0%) of the junior high students and over half (52.2%) of the senior high students reported getting highly intoxicated when they drank. II.A.3.b. Intoxicating Effects of Marijuana Use As discussed earlier, marijuana use is not as prevalent among junior and senior high school students as alcohol use. About 6 percent of the junior high as compared to 20 percent of the senior high students reported smoking marijuana. However, for all students who reported smoking marijuana, over 60 percent reported 12 16 they generally reached high levels of intoxication (See Table II.A.5.) These data suggest that alcohol and marijuana use among adolescents is not "casual," and that large numbers of students who report using these gateway drugs do so to the extreme. These data also suggest that use of alcohol, particularly liquor, by immature adolescents can lead to early dependency as demonstrated by the reported high rate of intoxication among junior and senior high students who drink. Those students reporting use of marijuana had an intoxication rate of over 60 percent, even higher than the intoxicating rate of liquor, suggesting that smoking marijuana produces high intoxication levels in adolescents and can lead to addiction as well. 13 1 '7 Table II.A.1.

Location and Time of Gateway Drug Use A knowledge of the patterns of adolescent drug use is important when planning and implementing prevention programs. Two of the most important questions that were asked on the PRIDE Questionnaire were location and time of gateway drug use. Students were asked to respond to "where" they use gateway drugs: "At Home," "At School," "In a Car," at a "Friend's Home," and/or at "Other" places in the community. Times of use responses consisted of "Before School," "During School," "After School," "Week Nights," and "Weekends." Students were allowed to respond to all categories of where and when drugs were used that applied to themselves. This information provides insight into the drug and alcohol use patterns of junior and senior high students surveyed by the SERC Teams. II.B.1. Locations and Times of Cigarette Use According to the reported findings of where students use cigarettes, the fewest number of students selected "At School" (3.9% for junior high and 10.7% for senior high school students). However, primary use was reported in locations other than school. The junior high students most frequently reported using cigarettes "At Home" (12.6%) and in "Other" places (11.8%). The senior high students most frequently reported using cigarettes "In a Car" (18.5%), at a "Friend's Home" (17.4%), and "Other" places (17.3%). As seen from Tables II.B.1 and II.B.2. a much smaller percentage of junior high students reported using 18 23 cigarettes "In a Car" (5.6%) while this was the most popular location selected by the senior high students (18.5t). The time most frequently reported for both junior and senior high school students using cigarettes were "After School," and on "Weekends" (See Tables II.B.3 and II.B.4). "During School" was the category that received the smallest percentage of student responses, a finding consistent with the data reported regarding the location of cigarette use. II.B.2. Locations and Time of Alcohol Use Students were asked to respond to when and where they drank alcoholic beverages. For junior high students, "At Home" was the most often selected response as a place of alcohol use in all three categories (See Table The consumption of beer and wine coolers were clearly identified as being most frequently used in the home. Very little use was reported "At School" with less than one percent reporting use at this location. These data clearly focus the use of alcohol in the home and in the community and not at school. The senior high school students responses for location of use were somewhat different from the junior high students. The most often given responses in all three of the alcohol categories were "Friend's Home" and "Other" places (See Table The use of alcohol "In a Car" was reported by a greater percentage of senior high tlan junior high students. This is an indication of an older more mobile population. Schools remained the location of 19 the least use, with less than 1.8 percent, 1.4 percent, and 1.9 percent reporting the use of beer, wine coolers, or liquor, respectively. Alcohol use occurred predominately in the community and home, areas crucial to adolescent drug prevention efforts. Figures II.B.1 through II.B.3 present a graphic representation of locations of beer, wine cooler, and liquor use for junior and senior high students. The percentages of senior high school students reported using alcohol "In a Car" are presented in Figure II.B.4. This graph illustrates the obviously hazardous conditions which exist when these students drive while drinking alcoholic beverages, thus presenting immediate danger to themselves and others. More than 18 percent of senior high school students reported use of beer in a car. This latter statistic is particularly disturbing since two out of five of these students reported getting high when they drank any form of alcohol. In addition to location of use, students were asked to indicate time of use to further establish alcohol use patterns for students in grades 6 through 12. They were asked to respond to five categories of when they used beer, wine coolers, and liquor or they could have selected the "Do Not Use" category. Students were allowed to select multiple responses. As with cigarette use, time categories for alcohol use were "Before School," "During School," "After School," "Week Nights," and "Weekends." Tables II.B.3. and II.B.4. contain the responses to the times students in junior high and senior high school indicated they use 20 alcohol. Overall fewer than 2.2 percent of all student groups reported using alcohol "Before School" and less than 1.3 percent reported using alcohol "During School" hours. The most disturbing percentage of when students use alcohol was found -luring the weekends. Both the junior high and senior high students most frequently selected that response with use during the week nights being next. "Weekends" was by far the favored time selected by the senior high students for alcohol use. Nearly one half of these students reported drinking beer and/or wine coolers on weekends. Liquor use was somewhat lower for junior high (14%) and senior high (37.2%) school students. Figures II.B.5 through II.B.7 contain a graphic representation of the time of use patterns for senior high school students. These findings are most important for prevention strategies since most of the consumption of alcohol occurs when parents are responsible for their children. These data demonstrate the need for organized prevention activities that include the community and parents as an integral part of the prevention process. II.B.3. Location and Time of Marijuana Use Students in both junior high and senior high reported the smallest percentage of marijuana use rate "At School" than in other locations. Total use rates were reported at 0.8 percent for junior high students and 2.8 percent for senior high students (See Tables II.B.1 and II.B.2). The reported marijuana use for junior high students was small, less than 3.3 percent for all locations. The 21 26 ti senior high school students reported the most popular places to use marijuana were in "Other" places in the community (11.7%), at a "Friend's Home" (10.4%), or "In a Car" (9.1%). Figure II.B.8 graphically represents the percentage data for junior and senior high school students' reported location of marijuana use. The least preferred time of use was "During School" hours. The most popular time of marijuana use was on "Weekends" with 4.3 percent of juml.or high students and 15.6 percent of senior high students selecting this category. Figure II.D.9 contains junior and senior high school students percentage data for time of use. The time of marijuana use reported by junior and senior high school students can also be examined in Tables II.B.3. and II.B.4. It can not be emphasized enough that these data clearly indicate that the times of most reported use by junior and senior high students are times when parents or guardians have responsibility for the supervision of their children. These data strongly confirm the need for parents to be actively involved in the community's drug and alcohol prevention strategies. 22 2! Table II.B.1.

Friends' Use of Gateway Drugs Students were asked to respond to their friends' use of gateway drugs. The categories were "None," "A Few," "Several," or "A Lot." Collection of these data provided a measure of peer pressure to use drugs, i.e., if students have friends who use gateway drugs, they most likely will have the opportunity to use and possibly feel pressure to use themselves. In addition, this measure gives another, less direct, measure of overall use among the adolescent population. II.C.1. Friends' Use of Cigarettes A greater percentage of senior high school students (76%) indicated they had friends who use cigarettes than the junior high school students (53.2%). These data can be seen in Tables II.C.1 and II.C.2. This finding is consistent with the general tendency for a greater number of students reporting the use of gateway drugs as they get older. II.C.2. Friends' Use of Alcohol Peer pressure is a powerful influencing force in the adolescent culture and has been identified as one factor contributing to students' beginning use of alcohol. Students who report having friends who drink are more likely to drink themselves, if not already doing so. They are at higher risk of becoming adolescent drug and alcohol users. Junior and senior high school students were asked to indicate how many of their fr4.ends 34 drink beer, wine coolers, and liquor. Information regarding students' responses to friends' use of alcohol can be seen in Tables II.C.1 and II.C.2. Data indicate that a much greater percentage of senior high students reported alcohol using friends than did the junior high students. Nearly 85 percent of the students in grades 9 through 12 indicated that they have at least "A few" friends who drink beer. Approximately 50 percent of these students indicated that "Several" to "Most" of their friends used beer and/or wine coolers and more than 40 percent reported that "Several" to "Most" of their friends used liquor. Even at the junior high level over 50 percent of the students indicated that they had beer drinking friends and 48 percent reported friends using wine coolers. Given that peer pressure is such a powerful contributing factor to students' beginning use of alcohol, these data indicate that a large number of the surveyed adolescents are under peer pressure to start or continue to drink some form of alcohol. II.C.3. Friends' Use of Marijuana Students reported a similar pattern of friends' use of marijuana to that found for alcohol consumption. Generally, the older high school students had a much higher percentage of their friends who used marijuana (50.4%) as compared to the younger students (19.2%) in junior high. This finding is consistent with the trend for an increase in the percentage of students to use marijuana as they progress through the grades. However, it is 35 significant that more than 50 percent of the surveyed students reported that they have at least "A Few" friends who smoke marijuana, a dangerous and illicit drug. Thus, it would seem that smoking marijuana continues to be problematic among the adolescent population and increased prevention efforts to combat the spread of its use is warranted. 36 Table II.C.1.

Perceived Harmful Effects of Gateway Drug Use Students' beliefs about the harmful effects of gateway drugs are important predictors of their behavior. These data can also target areas where additional education efforts need targeting both by schools and by parents. Students were asked to respond to the degree that they felt that gateway drugs were harmful to their health. The response categories were "No," "Sometimes," "Very Much," and "Don't Know." A "No" response indicated that the student had a positive perception toward the,use of the drug, while a "Very Much" response indicated that the student perceived use to be a health hazard. II.D.1. Perceived Harmful Effects of Cigarette Use The perceived harmful effects of smoking cigarettes were fairly consistent for the various grade levels. In general, senior high students responded more often than junior high students that cigarette smoking was "Very Much" harmful to their health. As can be observed from Tables II.D.1 and II.D.2, 11.3 percent of junior high students compared to 7.0 percent of the senior high school students responded that cigarette smoking was not harmful. Less than 6 percent of the students surveyed responded that they did not know if cigarette smoking was harmful to their health. It appears that even with the extensive publicity about the harmful effects of cigarette smoking, that approximately one-third of the students did not select "Very Much" as a response to the harmfulness of this gateway drug. More than 17 percent of the 38 junior high students and approximately 10 percent of the senior high students responded that cigarette smoking was not harmful or they did not know. II.D.2. Perceived Harmful Effects of Alcohol Use. Students were asked to respond to the health hazards of drinking alcohol. They assessed the perceived harmful effects of beer, wine coolers, and liquor. The percentage data for junior and senior high school students are contained in Tables II.D.1 and Ii.D.2. About 1 in 6 junior high students (15.5%) and senior high students (14.3%) felt that the consumption of beer was not harmful to their health. A greater percentage of students in both grade groups perceived wine coolers as being less harmful than beer or liquor. More than 1 in 5 junior high students and 1 in 4 senior high students felt drinking wine coolers posed no hazard to their health. Overall, wine coolers had the smallest percentage of students perceiving them to be harmful to their health. Liquor was perceived as a greater health hazard by both junior and senior high students. A slightly higher percentage of younger students responded to the "Don't Know" category. These data indicated that students in these grade levels need to be more informed regarding the harmful effects that alcohol can have on their health. II.D.3. Perceived Harmful Effects of Marijuana, Younger students responded more frequently than older students that marijuana was not harmful or they did not know if it was 39 53 harmful (see Tables II.D.1 and II.D.2). Although more than three- fourths of the students from both grade groups indicated that marijuana was harmful to their health. However, the remaining students who did not respond strongly provides evidence for the continued need of drug education and prevention activities to be targeted toward the use of marijuana. 40 5,1 Table II.D.1.

Availability of Gateway Drugs The PRIDE Questionnaire asked students to respond to how easy or difficult it is for them to obtain gateway drugs. Response categories were "Cannot Get," "Fairly Difficult," "Fairly Easy," "Very Easy," and "Don't Know." The percentages of student responses to these items can be found in Appendix B. For this section, the categories of "Fairly Easy" and "Very Easy" were combined to provide the percentage of students that reported gateway drugs as "readily available." Figure II.E.1. contain these percentage data for junior and senior high students. The question of availability of cigarettes was not included on the PRIDE Questionnaire form as cigarettes are readily available with little or no control in most states. Indeed, in most communities cigarettes may be purchased by minors from vending machines in many public places without fear of punishment. II.E.1. Perceived Availability of Alcohol One of the factors contributing to use of any drug is its availability or accessibility to adolescents. Alcohol was reported as the drug most available to students. Alcoholic beverages most available to youth for consumption were beer and wine coolers. Over one-third of the junior high and over two-thirds of the senior high students reported that these alcoholic beverages were readily available. About one-fourth of the junior high and over half of the senior high students perceived liquor to be readily available. It is important that youth and adults understand that beer and 42 wine coolers with lower percentages of alcohol are equally as capable of causing intoxication as liquor. However, there appears to be a progression of alcohol use that begins wi.th beer or wine coolers and moves to liquor, and drinking liquor produces higher levels of intoxication among a greater percentage of students, probably due to its higher concentration of alcohol (Refer to Section II.A.3). Use of alcohol in the form of liquor appears to be a step toward alcohol dependency and/or use of illicit drugs by adolescents. II.E.2. Perceived Availability of Marijuana Marijuana was reported as being "Fairly Easy" to "Very Easy" to obtain by 16 percent of the junior high students and over 40 percent of the senior high students, i.e., marijuana appears to be two and a half times more accessible by senior high students than by junior high students. Figure II.E.1 contains percentages for students' responses to the perceived availability of marijuana question. These data indicate that while the use of alcohol and marijuana by minors is illegal, they are readily available to a large percentage of the adolescent population in the Southeastern U.S. Popular culture condones or even encourages the use of alcohol and, to a lesser extent, other drugs through movies, music, television, advertisements, comic books, t-shirts, etc. Until recently there have been few anti-drug messages to counter the impact of these strong influences. 43 57 It is important to discourace the illegal use of alcohol and marijuana through formal education and community prevention programs. However, it is also important to reduce the ease by which students can obtain these drugs, whether from home, a neighbor's home or from other establishments that sell alcoholic beverages to minors or from "pushers" who profit from the vulnerability of youth. Local, state and federal law enforcement agencies must; with the cooperation of students, parents, educators and the community; strive to reduce the availability of gateway drugs to minors. Law enforcement should be a part of local, state, and national strategies to reduce drug use by youth. 44 5S Fig. ILEA - GATEWAY DRUG AVAILIBILITY Southeast Regional Center School Based Surveys 1988-89 67.3% Beer Source: PRIDE Questionnaire (n approx 50,000) 59 67.7% Wine Coolers E_D, Jr HS 55.1% 26.3° Liquor Sr HS 40.5% 16% Marijuana CHAPTER III. OTHER ILLICIT DRUGS Although marijuana is an illicit drug, in this report it was also classified as a gateway drug and discussed in Chapter II. The "Other Illicit Drug" categories in the SERC surveys were cocaine, uppers, downers, inhalants, and hallucinogens. Any use of these illicit drugs is extremely dangerous. The illicit drugs discussed in Chapter III are considered highly toxic and addictive. They often cause dramatic, sudden and unpredictable changes in behavior whereas, gateway drugs may require a period of months or years to cause noticeable physical or psychological damage. These more toxic drugs may cause dependency, permanent damage or even death after only a short period of use or even first time use. Because these drugs are produced and distributed illegally, their purity and chemical content are unknown and are often contaminated with other poisonous chemicals. Cocaine and other illicit drug use is not as prevalent as that of tobacco, alcohol or marijuana. However, drug abuse and addiction is usually a progressive process that begins with the gateway drugs and advances into the use of more addictive illicit drugs. Although the percentages of students that use illicit drugs are smaller than for the gateway drugs, the gravity of the practice and immediacy of the danger demands attention. Students who use one or more of these illicit drugs are at extremely high risk of addiction within a very short period of time; a condition that can destroy a child and his or her family. It is suspected that a 46 61 large percentage of students reporting illicit drug use are drug dependent and in need of professional help. Hence, it is imperative that students, parents, educators and members of the community at large be knowledgeable of patterns of illicit drug use by adolescents and be alert to the signs of adolescent drug dependency. This chapter contains information regarding the reported prevalence and patterns of illicit drug use by students in grades 6 through 12. As with Chapter II, tables and graphs describing the survey findings are located at the end of each section. In some sections illicit drugs have been grouped for convenience and efficiency of discussion. For example, cocaine, uppers and downers are discussed together and inhalants and hallucinogens are discussed together. III.A. Use of Illicit Drugs The PRIDE Questionnaire obtained student responses to questions on 1) first use of illicit drugs, 2) annual use of illicit drugs, and 3) perceived intoxicating effects resulting from use of illicit drugs. As with gateway drugs, these findings are selected from the data contained in Appendix B, and the reader is encouraged to further study these data for more in-depth understanding of illicit drug use patterns by youth in communities served by the SERC during 1988-89. Junior high school student responses to the questions involving use of illicit drugs was relatively low. For example, 47 62 2.9 percent or less of the junior high students reported using cocaine, uppers, downers, or hallucinogens within the past year. However, the use of inhalants was more similar among the junior and senior high students (see Tables III.A.3. and III.A.4.). While any use of these very dangerous drugs by any student is not to be taken lightly, discussion of illicit drug use by junior high students is omitted due to their low response pattern. The reader is referred to Appendix B for further study of junior high school students' reported use of illicit drugs. III.A.1. First Use of Illicit Drugs Information on the approximate age that students first use illicit drugs is important to understand because prevention programs usually target students for information about specific drugs at various ages. Such an understanding is also important from the standpoint that early use of these drugs are may predict addiction later on in adolescence or adulthood. III.A.l.a. First Use of Cocaine, Upper, and Downers The first use of cocaine, uppers and downers by senior high students reportedly began most frequently between the ages of 14 and 17. Table III.A.2. contains the age of first use of illicit drugs as reported by the senior high school students in the southeast region. III.A.l.b. First Use of Inhalants and Hallucinogens Senior high school students reported the greatest frequency of first use of both inhalants and hallucinogens (3.3% and 2.1%) 48 Fla between the ages of 12 and 15 years. 1II.A.2. Frequency of Illicit Drua Use Students were asked to respond to how often they used illicit drugs within the past year using the same eight category response set ranging from "No Use" to "Daily" use as was used for the gateway drugs. See Appendix A for a copy of the PRIDE Questionnaire. The frequency of use categories were collapsed into three use categories ("Infrequent", "Frequent" and "Very Frequent") in the same manner as they were collapsed for the gateway drugs. Tables containing frequency of illicit drug use appear at the end of this subsection. The reader is encouraged to study the percentage tables in Appendix B for more complete detailed results. III.A.2.a. Frequency of Use of Cocaine, Uppers and Downers Although there is much media coverage about the use of cocaine and crack cocaine, fortunately the percentage cf students in the region reporting cocaine use is relatively low in comparison to the gateway drugs. For example, 3.8 percent of the senior high students reported using cocaine or crack cocaine within the past year as compared to 20.3 percent who reported marijuana use. However, 3.8 percent of the nearly 39,000 high school students just in this sample alone translates into 1,480 students who are involved with cocaine, one of the most addictive drugs known. Use of uppers by senior high students was higher than that of cocaine with 8.2 percent reporting taking stimulants within the past year. Use of downers was also slightly higher than that 49 reported for cocaine for senior high students (4.9%). The percentage data for junior and senior high students who reported using other illicit drugs within the past year is contained in Figure III.A.1. As can be observed from the bar graph, senior high school student use was dramatically greater than junior high student use. For more detailed data on frequency of cocaine, uppers and downers use refer to Tables III.A.3 and III.A.4. Also, Appendix B contains percentage tables for illicit drug use by grade level. III.A.2.b. Frequency of Use of Inhalants and Hallucinogens The use of inhalants as reported by junior high students exceeded that reported by senior high students (see Tables III.A.3 and III.A.4). The senior high use rate was 4.2 percent as compared to the junior high use rate of 4.7 percent. Senior high students' use of hallucinogens during the past year was about the same as for cocaine. Overall use of hallucinogens by senior high students was reported as 3.4 percent. While these percentages are relatively small, they represent a number of students who are involved in very dangerous behavior and are at extreme risk. Table III.A.3, III.A.4, and Figure III.A. contain the percentages of students who reported inhalant and hallucinogen use during the past year. III.A.3. Intoxicating Effects of Illicit Drug Use Reported frequency of use provides critical information about prevalence of drug use among students. However, information 50 regarding the intoxicating effects of illicit drug use is equally important. Specifically, when students use illicit drugs, what degree of intoxication do they attain? Do students report more "casual" or non-intoxicating effects when they use illicit drugs, or do they report reaching high levels of intoxication? The term "highly intoxicated" is used for students who reported getting "Very High" or "Bombed /Stoned." Table III.A.5. contains data on the percent of students reporting getting highly intoxicated when they use illicit drugs. It should be kept in mind that these percentages were computed only for students who reported using the drug, and, as can be observed in Tables III.A.3. and III.A.4., represents only a small percentage of the students participating in the SERC surveys. III.A.3.a. Intoxicating Effects of Cocaine, Uppers and Downers It is important to understand the intoxicating effects reported by students when using cocaine, uppers and downers. For example, two-thirds of the junior high and almost three-fourths of the senior high students who admitted using cocaine reported getting highly intoxicated when they used. These data are indicative of the high addictive nature of cocaine use and suggests that students who use are generally not casual users but use to become highly intoxicated. About forty-eight percent (48.4%) of the junior high students and about thirty percent (30.4%) of the senior high students reported getting "Very High" or "Bombed/Stoned" when using uppers. 51 66 Somewhat less percentages were reported for downers (36,0% for junior high and 29.1% for senior high students). These data suggest that generally students do not become as intoxicated when they use uppers or downers as when they use cortine. One explanation may be that uppers are used by senior high students to counter the effects of alcohol abuse and are not used to "get high." Results reported in Section III.B. somewhat supports this theory. Another explanation may be that many students who use uppers have not reached the higher levels of addiction as has the cocaine user, and the cocaine users' need for staving high is greater. III.A.3.b. Intoxicating Effects of Inhalants and Hallucinogens Of those junior high students who reported using inhalants during the past year (4.7%), 25.9 percent reported getting "Very High" or "Bombed/Stoned." About 4.2 percent of the senior high students reported using inhalants, and 31.4 percent reported getting highly intoxicated when they used. A large majority of students who use hallucinogens reported getting highly intoxicated. Two-thirds of the junior high students who reported using hallucinogens reached high levels of intoxication. For senior high this percentage jumped to 82.1 percent, the highest of any drug category. Table III.A.5. contains these comparative percentages. To restate some of the above findings for the intoxicating effects of illicit drug use; less than one-third of the senior high students who reported using uppers and downers reported getting 52 6TH highly intoxicated, while nearly three-fourths of cocaine users reached high levels of intoxication. These data indicate that illicit drug use, particularly cocaine use, is not casual, but is practiced to reach extreme mind-altered states. These findings are cause for concern for students who use these drugs. Prescription and non-prescription use of stimulants and depressants should be monitored as these drugs can be dangerous when taken in non- prescribed dosages or for non-medical purposes outside the care of a physician. Any use of cocaine should be considered as evidence of a child's need for professional help. As for cocaine, the high percent of stude. ts reporting high intoxication levels when using hallucinogens is indicative of the highly toxic nature of these drugs. Of the 3.4 percent of senior high students who repor.3d using hallucinogens, over 80 percent are doing so to reach high levels of intoxication. These data translate into over 1,000 youth surveyed by SERC that are at very high risk of becoming or may already be addicted to hallucinogens. These students need to be identified and provided with immediate professional help. 53 68 Table III.A.1.

Location and Time of Other Illicit Drug Use Location and time of illicit drug use provides parents, school officials and others in the community with information useful in implementing effective drug abuse prevention programs related to these drug categories. Locations and times of use responded to by students were the same as for the gateway drugs. They are as follows: Locations of Use Time of Use At Home Before School At School During School In a Car After School Friend's Home Week nights Other Places Weekends Students were allowed to mark as many locations and times of use as were applicable to them. Of course, a " Do Not Use" category was also included. As for the use items, junior high responses to location and time of use were very lc=:; and will not be included in this discussion. III.B.1. Locations and Times of Cocaine. Uppers and Downers Use Percentage data for locations and times of illicit drug use are contained in Tables III.B.1 through III.B.4. Senior high school students reported using cocaine most often at a "Friend's Home" (1.9%), at "Other" places in the community (1.8%) or "In a Car" (1.1%). These students reported using uppers somewhat equally across the various location categories, with the largest percentage reporting use "At School" (3.7%). The use of downers was reported most frequently "At Home" (2.1%) and at "Other" places in the 58 '1 community (2.1%). The percentage of illicit drug use reported by junior high students was found to be generally less than one percent. The preferred time to use cocaine, uppers and downers for the senior high schools students was on "Weekends." According to their responses 4.3 percent of the students reported using uppers on weekends. This was the most reported use across all illicit drug categories. Although the gathered percentages appear low for location and time the pattern of drug use should be noted and used when planning prevention programs. III.B.2. Location and Time of Inhalants and Hallucinogens Use Of the 4.7 percent junior high school students who reported using inhalants, they most often responded to using inhalants "At Home" (2.5%). Senior high school students were slightly less likely to use inhalants (4.2%) and reported the use of them "At Home " (2.0%) as the most popular location. Student responses translated in to low percentages across other location categories. Senior high school students reported most often using hallucinogens at "Other" places in the community (2.0%). Junior and senior high school students preferred time of use of inhalants and hallucinogens were consistent in their responses. The junior high school students indicated use of inhalants (1.9%) and hallucinogens (0.7%) during weekends. Senior high students had a much greater response to use of inhalants (2.0%) and hallucinogens (2.4%) on weekends. The remaining responses were 59 less than 2 percent for any other time of use category. The pattern of responses can be examined in Tables III.B.3 and III.B.4 for consideration in planning prevention programs. 60 Table III.B.1.

Friends' Use of Illicit Drugs Students were asked to respond to their friends' use of illicit drugs. The categories were "None," "A Few," "Several," or " A Lot." These data allowed for a measure of peer pressure to use drugs, i.e., if students have friends who use illicit drugs, they most likely will have the opportunity to use and possibly feel pressure to use themselves. In addition, this measure gives another less direct measure of overall illicit drug use among the adolescent population. The use of illicit drugs by junior high students remained at a lower percentage rate than for senior high students. Approximately 90 percent of the junior high students reported having no friends who use illicit drugs with the exception of hallucinogens where the percentage increased to 94 percent (see Table III.C.1). A larger percentage of senior high students reported having friends who use cocaine, uppers and downers than junior high students. Friends' use of uppers was most common with approximately 21 percent of the students reporting some use. Friends' use of cocaine and downers were reported by about 17 percent of the students. Inhalants and hallucinogens had the smallest percentage of friends' use as reported by the senior high school students at about 12 percent. The data compilation of student responses can be found in Tables III.C.1 and III.C.2 of this report. 63 Table III.C.1.

Perceived Harmful Effects of Illicit Drug Use Both junior and senior high students responded to questions about the perceived harmful health effects of using illicit drugs. When examining both sets of data as seen in Tables III.D.1 and III.D.2 it can be deducted that more students perceive cocaine as a greater health hazard than the other listed illicit drugs. About 82 percent of the junior high students recognized the dangers and more than 88 percent of the senior high school students agreed with their younger peers. The surveyed students perceived hallucinogens to be somewhat as harmful as cocaine. Of the junior high school students surveyed, almost 80 percent perceived this illicit drug as "Somewhat" or "Very Much" harmful to their health. At the senior high school level the same trend appeared with more than 86 percent of these students recognizing the dangers of drugs. Students responded to the harmful effects of uppers, downers and inhalants consistently across all grade levels. An interesting analysis of these data is to determine the percentage of students who responded to the categories "No" and "Don't Know." This provided as estimate of the students who are uninformed about the dangers of drug use. These identified of students are the ones who would benefit most from drug abuse education. These summary data can be noted in Table III.D.3. When the response categories for "No " and "Don't Know" were combined, a larger percentage of junior high students responded that the listed illicit drugs were not harmful or they did not know. This pattern was consistent and provides dramatic evidence 65 of the need to target younger students for prevention efforts. These data strongly support the need for drug educaticn as a prevention measure to be initiated early as part of the students' educational process to improve the knowledge, skills, and attitudes about the dangers of drug use. These findings give needed impetus to the importance of drug education beginning in the early childhood years and continuing throughout junior and senior high school. It is also vital to be cognizant of the fact that any prevention effort should be broad based enough to include the school and community with a special emphasis being placed on the family. 66 Table III.D.1.

Availability of Other Illicit Drugs One of the factors contributing to the use of the illicit drugs is their availability or accessibility to adolescents. Students were asked how easy was it to get the various illicit drugs. Response categories were "Can't Get," "Fairly Difficult," "Fairly Easy," "Very Easy," and "Don't Know." While most students responded that they "Can't Get" or "Don't Know" if they can get illicit drugs, a substantial number of students reported ready access to illicit drugs, particularly the senior high students. Percentages of junior and senior high school students' responding "Fairly Easy" or "Very Easy" are presented as a bar graph in Figure III.E.1. Appendix B contains the percentage of student response data related to availability. One in ten junior high students (10.8%) and one in five senior high students (19.6%) reported cocaine to be readily available. This translates into approximately 1,125 junior high students and 7,260 senior high students -- over 8,000 students in this study alone -- who reported easy access to cocaine. Students responded similarly to other illicit drug categories. About 11 percent of the junior high students reported that uppers and downers are "Fairly Easy" or "Very Easy" to get, compared to more than 20 percent for senior high students. As expected, inhalants were reported as the drug category most readily available. Almost 10 percent (9.2%) of the junior high students reported access to hallucinogens as compared to more than 15 percent of the senior high students. 69 Fig. !ILEA - ILLICIT DRUG AVAILIBILITY Southeast Regional Center School Based Surveys 1988-89 19.6% Cocaine Source: PRIDE Questionnaire (n approx 50,000) Fi 6 24.3% 22.3% 19.8 27.4% 9.2 15.8% Uppers Downers Inhalants Hallucinogens Jr HS Sr HS CHAPTER IV: SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS IV.A. Summary In 1988 and 1989 the Southeastern Regional Center for Drug- Free Schools and Communities (SERC) provided for school-based surveys of adolescent drug and alcohol use in various communities across the states, territories, and districts they served. This process resulted in a sample of approximately 50,000 students in the southeast region. Data from these school surveys were combined for analyses in this report. Student responses indicated that over one-fourth of the junior high and over one-third of the senior high students reported smoking cigarettes within the past year. Annual beer and wine cooler use was reported by about one-third of the junio high and over half of the senior high students. Fewer than half (44.6%) of the students reported using liquor. However, there seemed to be a progession of alcohol use from beer and wine coolers to liquor use. For example, fewer students reported reaching high levels of intoxication when drinking beer and wine coolers than was reported when Drinking liquor. Over 50 percent of the senior high students reported getting intoxicated when drinking liquor as compared to less than 25 percent for beer and only 10 percent for wine coolers. One in five students in grades 9 through 12 admitted to smoking marijuana within the past year. The percentage was lower for junior high students with one in fifteen reporting annual marijuana use. Almost two-thirds of these students indicated that they get highly intoxicated when they smoke marijuana. Marijuana 7' use by these young students is not "casual" use, and students apparently smoke marijuana to get "high." Other illicit drug use by junior and senior high students was low in comparison to cigarette, alcohol, and marijuana use, and illicit drug use by junior high students was low in comparison to senior high students. For senior high students, less than 5 percent reported use of cocaine, depressants, inhalants or hallucinogens. About 8 percent reported using stimulants. However, for those students who reported using cocaine and hallucinogens, a high percentage reported getting highly intoxicated. For example, of the senior high students reporting cocaine use, nearly three-fourths reported getting highly intoxicated with use. For hallucinogen users, over 80 percent reported getting highly intoxicated. These data strongly suggest that if a student is found using these illicit drugs, professional help should be obtained immediately. Location and time of drug and alcohol use was relatively consistent. Students reported school as the place of least use of drugs and alcohol and the slogan of "drug-free schools" is a poor choice since most schools are relatively drug and alcohol-free. The most popular places of drug and alcohol use were the student's home, a friend's home, and in other places in the community. For older students, a car was also a popular place to drink and smoke marijuana. Weekends were by far the most popular time of use. It appears that adolescents use drugs and alcohol at times and places when there is social activity. This pattern of drug use further 72 Appendix A: Printed In U.S.A.

This report consists of tables regarding the prevalence and patterns of drug and alcohol use from schools in that region. Procedures for Data Collection and Processing Throughout the school year, SERC School Teams were asked to survey their schools using the PRIDE Questionnaire. The PRIDE Questionnaire is a one-page, fill-in-the-bubble type questionnaire that asks questions regarding student demographics, student information, first use of drugs, frequency of use, effect of use, location of use, time of use, friends use, perceived harmfulness of use and perceived availability. Schools were sent the required number of questionnaires along with administration and return mailing instructions. The schools administered the questionnaires . and returned them to PRIDE. The questionnaires were then machine scored using an NCS Opscan 21 Model 100 optical reader. Questionnaires which were blank, contained no grade information or failed to meet the internal consistency checks built-in to the PRIDE Questionnaire were discarded by the optical reader. The remaining questionnaires were scored and the data were output to a computer data file. Using custom-built software, all SERC data files from the school year were combined and this report was generated. 9 4 Format of Survey Report This report contains survey results in tabular form. Percent of student responses for each item on the questionnaire is contained in a separate table. Each table contains percentage data by grade level, "Junior High" (Grades 6 through 8), "Senior High" (Grades 9 through 12), and "Total." The "N of Valid" column contains the number of students that responded to the item and the "N of Missing" column contains the number of students that did not respond to the item. The remaining columns contain the percentage of students responding to the particular response category. The percentage tables appear in the report in the order they appear on the Questionnaire. The preceding Table of Contents contains the percentage tables by section and gives the page number where the table is located in the document. The last section of tables (tables prefixed by "11") presents the frequency of use (Question IV) data again with the categories "collapsed" to fo..m fewer response categories. This additional set of tables were computed to provide the user with data that can be more easily interpreted (e.g., fewer categories to examine). The data were collapsed as follows: Infrequent Use = Once/Year + 6 Times/Year Frequent Use = Once/Month + Twice/Month Very Frequent Use = Once/Week + 3 Times/Week + Every Day Total = Sum of all Response ;atecrories 9J Many communities have found these collapsed data to be more easily interpreted for use in assessing the prevalence of drug use in their community.
