Abstract

Based on Social Cognitive Theory (SCT), this study investigated the factors of psychoactive substance use in terms of current use (past 30 days), lifetime use, and behavioral intention (next 12 months) in Hong Kong adolescent case-clients of social workers from July 2021 to June 2022. The prevalence of current/lifetime psychoactive substance use and behavioral intention to use psychoactive substances was 7.6%/20.9% and 8.6%, respectively. The SCT constructs of positive outcome expectancy of psychoactive substance use, the observational learning indicators, and the environmental factor (easiness to obtain psychoactive substances) were positively associated with current and lifetime psychoactive substance use. Similar associations involving negative outcome expectancy (NOE), emotional relief refusal self-efficacy (RSE), and opportunistic RSE were significant and negative. Furthermore, NOE, emotional relief RSE, and social facilitation RSE were significantly associated with behavioral intention of psychoactive substance use. Future longitudinal studies are warranted to confirm the findings and test pilot interventions.

香港青少年社工个案服务对象精神活性物质使用行为及意向的影响因素
本研究以社会认知理论(SCT)为基础,从当前使用(过去30天)、终生使用和行为意向(未来12个月)三个方面调查了香港青少年社工个案客户的精神活性物质使用因素。目前/终生使用精神活性物质和行为意图使用精神活性物质的患病率分别为7.6%/20.9%和8.6%。SCT构念中精神活性物质使用的积极结果预期、观察性学习指标和环境因素(获取精神活性物质的难易程度)与当前和终生精神活性物质使用呈正相关。负面结果预期(NOE)、情绪缓解拒绝自我效能感(RSE)和机会性RSE也存在显著的负相关。NOE、情绪缓解RSE、社会促进RSE与精神活性物质使用行为意向显著相关。未来的纵向研究是必要的,以确认研究结果和试验试点干预措施。
