Cover Story: Comparative international studies indicate that adolescent cigarette and alcohol use remain a challenging problem since they have long-term health consequences. Adolescence is a particularly risky life period since children become familiar with these substances usually in peer context. Adolescent smoking and drinking are not only a priority in prevention and health promotion but also in educational settings. This study examines adolescent substance use from the perspective of positive psychology and seeks potential protective factors on multiple levels which may be useful in the development of prevention programs. Our results confirm the role of self-control, social support from the family, school attachment and psychological well-being in the avoidance of adolescent smoking and drinking. These factors may act as potential assets in prevention. View this paper
