This dissertation contains three studies. The first study addresses whether neighborhood influences on adolescent substance use are mediated through parental and peer characteristics. The second study compares differences in neighborhood mechanisms on adolescent substance use between census tracts and block groups. The third study uses a typology approach for measuring neighborhoods and examines differences in the relationship between parenting and adolescent substance use across different neighborhood types. Study hypotheses are tested through secondary analysis of data from the Family Matters Project, a randomized experimental study designed to determine whether a family-directed intervention prevented adolescent cigarette and alcohol use. The residential addresses of adolescents were matched with 1990 Census tracts and block groups. The final data set includes 959 cases in the tract sample and 924 cases in the block-group sample. The findings of these studies are as follows: Study 1. For adolescent cigarette use, low social economic status neighborhoods increase parental monitoring, which in turn decreases adolescent smoking. For adolescent alcohol use, high SES neighborhoods increase parent drinking and low SES neighborhoods increase parental monitoring as well as peer drinking. Parent drinking, parental monitoring, and peer drinking, each in turn, has an influence on adolescent drinking. Study 2. The pattern of relationships in the tract model of alcohol use is similar to that in the block-group model of alcohol use. The block-group model of cigarette use shows a different pattern of relationships than the tract model of cigarette use. Both models suggest that low SES neighborhoods increase parental monitoring, but, in addition, the block-group model suggests that high SES neighborhoods decrease parent smoking and Hispanic concentration decreases adolescent smoking. Study 3. Six types of neighborhood are identified by this study. They are: (1) rural low SES neighborhoods; (2) urban White middle SES neighborhoods; (3) urban White high SES neighborhoods; (4) suburban White middle SES neighborhoods; (5) rural White middle SES neighborhoods, and (6) urban Black low SES neighborhoods. This study found that adolescent cigarette and alcohol use does not vary by neighborhood types, but the impact of parenting on adolescent cigarette and alcohol use differs by neighborhood types.
