TY - JOUR PY - 1999// TI - Adolescent Prosocial Values and Self-Efficacy in Relation to Delinquency, Risky Sexual Behavior, and Drug Use JO - Youth and society A1 - Ludwig, Kristin B. A1 - Pittman, Joe F. SP - 461 EP - 482 VL - 30 IS - 4 N2 - The present study examined relations of prosocial values and three measures of self-efficacy as predictors of delinquency, risky sex, and drug use in a sample of 2,146 racially diverse adolescents. It also explored moderating effects on the relations between self-efficacy and values on the three problem behaviors. Adolescents with strong prosocial values and self-efficacy reported fewer problem behaviors. Implications for program development and implementation based on differential needs by race and gender are discussed. (Abstract Adapted from Source: Youth and Society, 1999.
