predictor of problem drug use only in the presence of the

underlie experimentation, it does not appear to be associated
with problem drug use among adolescents. Lack of
information (d.) is also not a significant contributor to
problem drug use

objects into their cognitive schema. In other words, one of
the developmental functions of play is to help children learn
about and master their environment.
