- W259677530 abstract "Using data from a larger intervention study of youth at risk for substance abuse, this study examined the impact of school transition on middle school and high school youth at high risk for alcohol and other drug abuse. Subjects for the larger study wire 279 students from 30 secondary schools; approximately 10 students from each school were identified as high risk for substance abuse and participated in the intervention program. Data were collected three times: in the fall and spring of 1987, and in the spring of 1988. Between the 1987 and 1988 assessments, 46 youths transitioned from middle school to high school, i.e., from eighth to ninth grade. Of these students, 30 changed schools and 16 remained in the same secondary school. School transition effects were examined by comparing the group of students who changed schools between eighth and ninth grade with the group of same-aged students who did not change schools. Assessments for the intervention study included measures of behavioral coping skills; self-reports of behavior attitudes, and substance abuse; grades and school attendance; and teacher ratings of behavior. Analysis revealed no significant differences between the school transition group and the chronologically similar comparison group. Subjects' participation in the intervention program prior to school transition may have had some preventive utility relative to school transition.

The transition from one school to another necessitated by the organizational structuring of school systems has been studied as a significant stressor of young adolescents. Several developmental studies following youth through one or more school transitions have suggested that the transition may be associated with declines in self perception of well being and in school performance (Crockett, Petersen, Graber, Schulenburg, & Ebata, 1989; Eccles & Midgley, 1989; Simmons & Blyth, 1987). Almost all of the research on this topic has included what might be considered samples of normal youth. Virtually no studies have examined the effects of school transition for youth considered at high risk for less than optimal behavioral and social outcomes. Transition to a new school is a multifaceted phenomenon. In many cases the transition precipitates significant disruption in peer social networks due to the integration of students from multiple feeder schools along with assignment to multiple classrooms and teachers. Frequently the new school is considerably larger than the pre-transition school presenting a number of cognitive, behavioral and social tasks for new students. Simmons & Blyth (1987) have suggested that the impact of school transition varies with the age of the youth and the number of other transitions (e.g., biological, social) 1 Paper presented at the 60th annual meeting of the Society for Research in Child Develcpment, New Orleans, March, 1993.
