The Drug Education-Drug Use Dilemma.

Sheppard, Margaret A.; And Others

Journal of Drug Education, v17 n3 p197-200 1987

Examined relationship between cannabis education and use in over 4,000 secondary school students. Seventh graders who reported receiving more cannabis education were more likely to also report having used cannabis. The relationship between cannabis education and cannabis use was not statistically significant for grades 9, 11, or 13, but the trend was in the same direction. (NB)
