| Abstract: | This study examined the impact of two treatment strategies on children's drug refusal skills and drug-related information. Thirty-four third-graders were randomly assigned to one of three groups: rehearsal-plus, general information, and control. Children in the rehearsal-plus group were taught drug knowledge, assertiveness skills, decision-making skills, elaborative rehearsal (rationale), and specific drug refusal skills in the context of a skills-based strategy. The general information group targeted the same components with the exception of elaborative rehearsal (rationale). Additionally subjects in this group received training in general knowledge/self-esteem. Results indicated that subjects in both groups showed significant improvement on drug knowledge. Additionally, the rehearsal-plus group showed significant improvement in the occurrence of behavioral skills (Situation 1) and elaborative rehearsal (rationale) while subjects in the general information group improved most on the measure of general knowledge/self-esteem. Implications for future training of drug refusal skills are articulated. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
