Driving after substance use in Rhode Island adolescents: A cross-sectional analysis of surveillance data

CONCLUSIONS: Driving under the influence is a concern among adolescent substance users.

For example, interventions focusing on peer perceptions are most relevant for DAP, while shifting personal perceptions of harm are most relevant for DAC.PMID:38578273 | DOI:10.1080/15389588.2024.2335317
