   Is there a relationship between identity and substance use?

   Is drug use an identity gain?

   Does identity affect adolescent substance use?

   • Therefore, having a strong identity may also protect adolescents from life stress-associated substance use. However, it is also possible – even whilst issues such as confusion about one’s identity (i.e., identity diffusion) may put adolescents at risk of substance use – that substance use leads to changes in identity.

   Does substance use affect personality?

   • Results indicated that individuals with low levels of conscientiousness, life satisfaction, and self-esteem, as well as high levels of neuroticism, used more drugs on average (between-person effects). In contrast, we found little evidence for personality change following substance use (within-person effects).
