AB Analyses of data from a random sample of 1,259 sexually active
adolescents revealed that substance use was associated with increased
sexual risk taking on 2 occasions of intercourse (1st intercourse ever
and 1st intercourse with most recent partner), even after controlling
for demographic experiential, and dispositional confounders.
Within-persons analyses yielded similar results, indicating that
adolescents who used substances, on 1 of the 2 occasions, reported
higher levels of risk taking on the occasion when substances were used
than on the no-substance use occasion. However, substance use was both
more common and more strongly linked to risk taking among White than
Black adolescents, suggesting that White adolescents are a greater risk
of negative consequences related to substance use proximal to
intercourse.
