摘要
This study assessed risk-taking behavior in a unique adolescent population: family members of active and retired military personnel. Significantly fewer adolescents in our group engaged in at-risk behaviors compared with national statistics, demonstrating the need for further research. (c) 2006 Society for Adolescent Medicine.
