Social Integration

Community Service and Marijuana Use in High School Seniors

Reports of activities from 3,119 high school seniors werefactoranalyzed into dimensions that signified integration into school-based, adult-endorsed norms or engagement in peerfun activities that excluded adults. Individuals were given scores on each dimension and then grouped into orientations toward school-adult norms, butnotpeerfun (School), toward fun but not school-adult norms (Party), toward both (All-around), or toward neither (Disengaged). School and All-around seniors were distinguishably high in community service, religion, andpolitics. Party seniors used marijuana more than did School seniors, but not All-around, seniors. Results indicated important variations in seniors' integration (connection) into the part ofpeer culture that coincides with adult normative society. It appears that connection may be typically associated with regulation but also may be superseded by agency-autonomy, as was manifested in the All-around group.
