Consequences of substance use in popular music. These analyses included only the 93 songs with substance use. There were no songs that contained positive legal consequences and no songs that contained negative financial consequences. Negative and positive percentages in each category do not total 100 because many songs did not contain either a positive or negative consequence of a given type. The data for “All” demonstrate that 15 (16%) songs had more negative than positive consequences and that 63 (68%) songs had more positive than negative consequences. * indicates P<.05; †, P<.001.
