Annotation: This report presents the results of a survey on racial and ethnic differences in adolescents' (ages 12-17) hallucinogen use. Respondents were asked to report their lifetime use of hallucinogens as well as their age at first use. They were also asked how much they thought people risked harming themselves physically and in other ways when they try LSD once or twice and use it once or twice a week, as well as how difficult or easy it would be to get some LSD if they wanted some. Respondents were analyzed by racial and ethnic subgroups. Statistical information is presented in tables and figures throughout the report.
