School and Parent Factors Associated With Steroid Use Among Adolescents

Findings suggest that limiting steroid screening to student athletes might miss a substantial proportion of the population at risk. Thus, broad‐based screening and prevention programs may be more effective than programs targeting student athletes alone.
