Using data collected from arrested youth who entered a home based family intervention project, model of relationships between youths' family problems (including abuse experiences) and drug use and delinquent behavior was tested. Data supported hypothesized model, involving both self-reports of physical/sexual abuse and official records of physical/sexual abuse, and neglect. Theoretical and policy implications of the results are drawn. (Contains 29 references, 1 table, and 3 figures.) (ADT)
