About Adolescent Delinquency Questionnaire
The self-report delinquency measure that was created for the National Youth Survey is the one we use in the present study to measure delinquency. The format of the Delinquency Scale is a self-report of the frequency of each of 45 specific behaviors over the last year. For example, an individual is asked to estimate how many times in the past year he or she has “purposely damaged or destroyed property belonging to a school.” Of the 45 items, 7 pertain to illegal drug use (i.e., “How often in the last year have you used alcoholic beverages [beer, wine and hard liquor]?”). The multiple correlation ratio for the Delinquency Scale reported by Elliot et al. (1985) is .59. Using a model described in their book, Explaining Delinquency and Drug Use (Elliot et al., 1985), the authors demonstrated that their theoretical model explained 30-50% of the variance in the self-reported delinquency scores of males and 11-34% of the variance in the self-reported delinquency scores for females.
