The work of Thomas Kelly and Sandra Brown is extremely important. Additionally, going through the publications from NIDA and NIAAA you can find quite a bit that would be helpful.
In reading the previous answers, I did not find a great number of adolescent measures available in either Pearson or the Year book. Published work in the area of adolescents provided a rich background.
Hello.
There is also a lot in Europe : please read the publications by Legleye et al. or Piontek et al. on SDS and CAST for cannabis. You can also find a lot on the website of EMCDDA.
