Seattle Social Development Project, Waves 8-10, 1993-1999 (ICPSR 39043)
Released/updated on: 2024-04-09
Geographic coverage: Seattle, United States, Washington
Time period: 1993-01-01--1999-12-31
The Social Development Project (SSDP) is a prospective longitudinal study that has been in the field for over thirty years. Beginning in 1985, SSDP has followed a cohort of 808 individuals from childhood through adulthood. Within the cohort is nested a subset, who, in first grade, received an intervention that aimed to use the principals of the Social Development Model to develop pro-social behavior. Intervention effects into the thirties confirm that the original intervention has had positive effects on development and long-term health outcomes. The archived data are from waves 8, 9, and 10 of data collection, and were collected in years 1993, 1996, and 1999 respectively. In these years the cohort had an average age of 18, 21, and 24. Items included are measures of substance misuse, dependence, and addiction. Data for waves 9 and 10 are outcome and addiction variables only.

National Evaluation of the Fighting Back Program: General Population Surveys, 1995-1999 (ICPSR 3801)
Released/updated on: 2024-02-14
Geographic coverage: United States
Time period: 1995-01-01--1999-12-31
This study was designed as part of a multi-method assessment of Fighting Back, a community-based drug abuse prevention program funded by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. Fighting Back was implemented in 14 medium-sized, primarily urban communities in 12 states. To assess whether the Fighting Back program led to changes in alcohol and other drug (AOD) patterns and attitudes, the evaluation conducted general population surveys of residents aged 16-44 in 12 Fighting Back program communities and 29 comparison communities. Conducted in three waves -- 1995, 1997, and 1999 -- these surveys constitute the Community Survey (Part 1). To provide comparative national trend data, the National Survey (Part 2) was administered, concurrently with the second and third waves, to a national sample of the non-rural general population aged 16-44 using the same survey instrument as the Community Survey. The strategy for question design was to replicate previously validated questions from national surveys of substance use and dependency, including the National Household Survey of Drug Abuse, the National Comorbidity Study, and the Monitoring the Future study of American youth. Respondents reported their AOD use, their friends' AOD use, their attitudes about AOD use, how their friends felt about AOD use, and their perceptions of drug sales, crime, and other aspects of their neighborhood. In addition, the surveys collected information on volunteerism, crime victimization, health and mental health, knowledge and utilization of AOD treatment services, attendance in drug education courses or lectures in school, and opinions on marijuana legalization. Background variables include sex, race, Hispanic origin, household composition, marital/cohabitation status, education status and achievement, employment status, occupation, religious preference, religiosity, and income.

Adolescent Substance Abuse Prevention Study (ASAPS), 2001-2006 [Detroit, Houston, Los Angeles, Newark, New Orleans, St. Louis] (ICPSR 28641)
Released/updated on: 2012-02-29
Geographic coverage: Detroit, United States, New Orleans, Los Angeles, Newark, St. Louis, Houston
Time period: 2001-01-01--2006-12-31
The Adolescent Substance Abuse Prevention Study (ASAPS) was a randomized field trial designed to test the effectiveness of a new school-based substance abuse prevention program called Take Charge of Your Life (TCYL). The program consisted of two curricula, one for middle schools and the other for high schools, which were delivered through the Drug Abuse Resistance Education network of law enforcement officers (D.A.R.E.). TCYL was developed building on existing D.A.R.E. seventh/eighth grade and tenth/eleventh grade curricula and applied principles and strategies suggested by published literature on effective drug abuse prevention programming and effective middle and high school curricula design. ASAPS was conducted among a 2001-2002 multi-site cohort of seventh graders who were followed for five years until the 2005-2006 school year when they were in the eleventh grade. The first TCYL curriculum was delivered in the treatment schools when the students were in seventh grade and the second was delivered when they were in the ninth grade.
Over the five-year study period, the treatment and control students responded to seven self-administered surveys: (1) at baseline in the seventh grade, (2) post-intervention in the seventh grade, (3) in the eighth grade, (4) pre-intervention in the ninth grade, (5) post-intervention in the ninth grade, (6) in the tenth grade, and (7) in the eleventh grade. Topics covered by the surveys include normative beliefs, social skills, attitudes toward drug use, and self-reported use of alcohol, tobacco, marijuana, and other illicit drugs. The ASAPS data also include measures of implementation fidelity of the seventh and ninth grade TCYL curricula, which were obtained from trained observers who rated the D.A.R.E. officers' delivery in the classroom. The fidelity measures encompass content coverage and instructional strategy.
This data collection comprises two data files, both with public- and restricted-use versions. The first (the Main Data File) contains the students' survey responses and the seventh grade curriculum fidelity measures, while the second (the 9th Grade Officer Observations Data) contains the ninth grade curriculum fidelity measures.

Released/updated on: 2008-02-05
Geographic coverage: United States
Time period: 2001-01-01--2001-12-31
The Harvard School of Public Health College Alcohol Study (CAS), a multi-round survey that interviewed students in four-year colleges, examined key issues in alcohol abuse and other high risk behaviors among college students, including the relationship of state alcohol control measures and college policies to alcohol use and the role of fraternities and sororities, easy access to alcohol, and low alcohol prices. As in the previous rounds of CAS, which were conducted in 1993 (ICPSR 6577), 1997 (ICPSR 3163), and 1999 (ICPSR 3818), this round collected information on students' use of alcohol, tobacco, and illicit drugs, views on campus alcohol policies and student alcohol use, reasons for drinking alcohol and reasons for not drinking or limiting drinking, and personal difficulties caused by drinking problems (e.g., missed classes and trouble with police). Additional topics covered by the survey include overall health status, daily activities, satisfaction with education being received, grade-point average, living arrangements, social life, sexual activity (heterosexual, homosexual, and bisexual), use of condoms during sexual intercourse, rape, and drunk driving. Background variables include age, height, weight, sex, marital status, religion, mother's and father's education, mother's and father's drinking habits, race, and Hispanic origin.

National Survey of Alcohol, Drug, and Mental Health Problems [Healthcare for Communities], 2000-2001 (ICPSR 4165)
Released/updated on: 2006-03-30
Geographic coverage: United States
Time period: 2000-01-01--2001-12-31
This survey (HCC2) is a component of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation's Health Tracking Initiative, an initiative designed to track changes in the the American health care system and their effects. HCC2 reinterviewed respondents to the first National Survey of Alcohol, Drug, and Mental Health Problems (HCC1) and a cross-section of adult respondents from the second Community Tracking Study (CTS) Household Survey (CTS2). Previously, HCC1 reinterviewed a cross-section of adult respondents from the first CTS Household Survey (CTS1). HCC1 is available as the NATIONAL SURVEY OF ALCOHOL, DRUG, AND MENTAL HEALTH PROBLEMS [HEALTHCARE FOR COMMUNITIES], 1997-1998 (ICPSR 3025), CTS1 as the COMMUNITY TRACKING STUDY HOUSEHOLD SURVEY, 1996-1997, AND FOLLOWBACK SURVEY, 1997-1998 (ICPSR 2524), and CTS2 as the COMMUNITY TRACKING STUDY HOUSEHOLD SURVEY, 1998-1999, AND FOLLOWBACK SURVEY, 1998-2000 (ICPSR 3199). Central to the design of the CTS Household Surveys, from which all HCC1 and HCC2 respondents originated, is its community focus. Sixty sites (51 metropolitan and 9 nonmetropolitan areas) were randomly selected to form the core of the CTS surveys and to be representative of the nation as a whole. The CTS Household Surveys were administered to households in the 60 CTS sites (known as the site sample) and to a supplemental national sample of households. Both HCC1 and HCC2 focused on the care and treatment for alcohol, drug, and mental health conditions. Like HCC1, the HCC2 questionnaire collected information on (1) demographics, (2) health and daily activities, (3) mental health, (4) alcohol and illicit drug use, (5) use of medications, (6) general health insurance and insurance coverage for mental health, substance abuse, and prescription medications, (7) access, utilization, and quality of behavioral health care, (8) labor market status, income, and wealth, and (9) life difficulties. Three sets of a data files are supplied with this collection: a set containing the interviews completed with the follow-up sample of persons who responded to HCC1, a set containing the interviews completed with the cross-sectional sample of subjects who responded to CTS2, and a set named the "complete sample" which contains all of the completed interviews. Five imputed versions of the data are included with each set for analysis with multiple imputation techniques.

Evaluation of the Adolescent Portable Therapy (APT) Program [New York City], 2001-2004 (ICPSR 4299)
Released/updated on: 2005-11-04
Geographic coverage: New York City, United States, New York (state)
Time period: 2001-01-01--2004-12-31
This study contains data collected for an evaluation of the Adolescent Portable Therapy (APT) Program, which provided family-based drug treatment services to adolescents involved with the New York City juvenile justice system on charges of Persons In Need of Supervision (PINS) or delinquency. The program aimed to improve five core areas of the young peoples' lives: substance use, mental health, schooling, family functioning, and recidivism. Recruitment for the study occurred at juvenile detention facilities in New York City. Intake staff conducted screening interviews with the detainees. Those who reported using substances at least 30 times in the previous 30 days, or who met Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders - Fourth Edition (DSM IV) criteria for substance abuse or dependence were eligible for selection. After the respondents and their families consented to participate, the respondents were randomly assigned to treatment and control groups. The treatment group went on to receive services from APT, while control group subjects received no APT services but had access to all other standard facilities and community based services. The evaluation participants were interviewed at four time points: at intake into the study in the juvenile detention facilities (baseline), three months after release from detention (T1), nine months after release from detention (T2), and 15 months after release from detention (T3). Whenever subjects were interviewed outside of a detention facility for T1, T2, and T3, study staff attempted to collect urine samples which were tested for marijuana, cocaine, amphetamines, phencyclidine (PCP), and opiates. Topics covered by the interviews included substance use and treatment, physical health, risk behaviors and disease prevention, mental and emotional health, living situation and environment, crime and legal issues, school, work, income, and demographic characteristics.
