When it comes to prevention of substance use in our tween population, turning our kids on to thought control may just be the answer to getting them to say no.

New research has found that around the tween-age years kids are decidedly ambivalent towards cigarettes and alcohol. It seems that the youngsters have both positive and negative associations with these harmful substances and yet to decide one way or the other. Because they are susceptible to social influences, media portrayals of drug use and peer pressure become strong allies of substance use around these formative years.

Initiation and escalation of alcohol and cigarette use occurring during late childhood and adolescence makes this an important developmental period to examine precursors of substance use.

The study showed that at the impulsive, automatic level, these kids thought these substances were bad but they were easily able to overcome these biases and think of them as good when asked to place them with positive words. This suggests that this age group may be somewhat ambivalent about drinking and smoking. Parents need to be concerned when kids are ambivalent because this is when they may be more easily swayed by social influences.
