The BCSP, a 10-session program which uses skills training to promote competence and positive identity in the bicultural adolescent, appears to raise levels of adolescent self-control. Post-test results of an experimental evaluation of BCSP found that program participants reported lower levels of alcohol, tobacco, and other drug use and were rated as having higher levels of self-control than members of control group. The sample consisted of 137 Native-American adolescents (Schinke, Orlandi, Botvin, Gilchrist, & et al., 1988).
