title: Alcohol and other drug use among high school students--United States, 1990.
abstract: Use of alcohol and other drugs is associated with the leading causes of death and injury (e.g., motor-vehicle crashes, homicides, and suicides) among teenagers and young adults; for example, nearly half of all deaths from motor-vehicle crashes in this age group involve alcohol use (1,2). This article presents self-reported data about the prevalence of alcohol, marijuana, and cocaine use among U.S. students in grades 9-12 during 1990.
