note = "Funding Information: How is it that so much is known about substance abuse during the teen and young adult years? Although several information sources report on America's drug use, three of these sources are more widely recognized because they have for years regularly quantified and monitored adolescent use trends: The National Survey on Drug Use and Health, the Youth Risk Behavior Survey, and the Monitoring the Future (MTF) Survey [1–3] . The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration's National Survey on Drug Use and Health is an annual survey of approximately 67,000 Americans aged ≥12 years that provides nationwide prevalence and incidence figures regarding illicit drug, alcohol, and tobacco use, abuse, and dependence. As part of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance System, the Youth Risk Behavior Survey collects data from students in grades 9–12 with regard to a wide variety of health-related risk behaviors, including substance abuse. Probably the best recognized of the three, the MTF survey has since 1975 been funded by the National Institute on Drug Abuse and conducted by University of Michigan investigators as an annual nationwide survey measuring drug, alcohol, and tobacco use, as well as related teen attitudes. More than 46,000 students in the 8th, 10th, and 12th grades participating from nearly 400 public and private schools comprised the nationally representative sample this past year. ",
