Because of high levels of risk behaviour, adjudicated adolescents are at high risk for negative health outcomes such as nicotine and drug addiction and sexually transmitted diseases. The goal of this article is to examine relationships between future orientation and impulsive - sensation - seeking personality constructs to risk behaviours among 300 adjudicated adoelscents. Significant relationship between impulsive sensation seeking and future orientation were found for several risk behaviours. Individuals with more positive future orientation were less likely to use marijuana, hard drugs, alcohol during sex, had fewer alcohol problems, had lower levels of alcohol frequency and quantity of use, and perceived greater risks associated with such behaviours. Higher impulsivity reliably predicted alcohol problems, alcohol use, condom use and cigarette smoking.
