Abstract

The objective of this study was to create an Adolescent Wisdom Scale, based on Jason et al.'s Functional Value Scale. The scale was found to have high internal consistency and three subscales which were significantly associated with less involvement with alcohol use, cigarette use, and violent behaviors.
