Compares estimates of self-reported substance use & psychological well-being obtained in computer-assisted & paper-&-pencil self-administered questionnaires, examining the extent to which mode effects on survey responses are moderated by respondent characteristics & attitudes, eg, toward computers, about confidentiality & privacy, & general mistrust of others. National data gathered 1995/96 from 3,169 respondents, ages 12-34, randomly assigned to interview mode revealed few main effects of mode on self-reported substance use & well-being. Significant mode-by-age interaction terms revealed that adolescents were more sensitive to mode of administration than older respondents. Adolescents reported significantly higher levels of alcohol use, illicit drug use, & psychological distress in the computer mode than on paper. Significant mode-by-mistrust interactions were also found. Respondents with higher levels of mistrust in others were less likely to report substance use in the computer mode than in the paper-&-pencil format. 3 Tables, 2 Figures, 29 References.
