Abstract:
Adolescence is a stage of life that begins, according to specialists, around the age 13-14 and can extend even until 20 years old. The end of adolescence marks the beginning of maturity and the transition to adulthood. This period is characterised by a series of obstacles, whereby psychological and behavioural imbalances are often identified. For teenagers, showing off, being different and impressing their friend groups are common. As a result, alcohol use is one of the many options adolescents may choose to reach such "performance." Many of them are nonchalant regarding alcohol use and consider drinking a temporary phase with no consequences. Others have deeper knowledge about drinking, but don’t apply them. In this paper, I will highlight some aspects on perception and behaviour in adolescents regarding alcohol use, which were analysed based on an interview applied to teenagers in several high schools in Suceava County. I will also detail the strategies and possibilities of prevention to reduce this phenomenon among adolescents.

Abstract:
The epidemiological information available in Spain and the Community of Madrid highlights two relevant facts regarding alcohol consumption: an increase in binge drinking in teenagers and a reduction/reversal of the gender gap, particularly at young ages. This article aims to describe some of the factors related to alcohol use in teenagers, especially those related to gender and risk perception. A qualitative study was designed with semi-structured interviews and a discussion group with students from the city of Madrid aged 14 to 18 years. A descriptive analysis of the content of the replies of 28 teenagers was conducted. The results show that alcohol consumption has an identity component, both in terms of transition to adulthood and gender role performance. Consumption is also associated with risks, especially those determined by gender inequality, which teenagers learn to manage as a means of survival in nightlife. Preventive campaigns typically lack a gender perspective and a focus on risk prevention. To reduce the prevalence of consumption and associated risks, these strategies need to be reformulated with a gender perspective.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study to analyse whether compulsive buying in teenagers is related to gender and alcohol and cannabis use in a sample of 573 students aged 14–17 from secondary education schools in Burgos (Spain) (M = 15.65; SD = 1.04). Random cluster sampling was performed to select the sample. The Compulsive Buying Questionnaire was used together with two extra promts: ‘Indicate how much alcohol you consume’ and ‘Indicate how much cannabis you take’. Descriptive statistics were used in data analysis, while MANOVA was used to study gender differences in alcohol and cannabis use, compulsive buying and their interaction. The results show higher scores for female compulsive buyers than for men, higher scores for alcohol and cannabis users’ compulsive buying than for non-users, respectively, and higher scores for female users than for male users. A certain interaction was also observed between alcohol and cannabis use. A higher alcohol consumption entailed a higher score in compulsive buying, with cannabis users who did not consume alcohol obtaining the highest scores. Thus, prevention programmes should consider teenagers’ gender and the risk of taking toxic substances.

Abstract:
The Brief Scale of Alcohol Dependence (BEDA) has shown validity and reliability on previous studies. Despite the frequent use in treatment programs for addictions, there are gaps on its psychometric properties and diagnostic efficiency on the teenage population. This study conducted analysis of construct validity of the Brief Scale of Alcohol Dependence and its relation to attitudes towards an accident prevention program for young people in Sonora. 838 high school students (Cecytes) from Hermosillo participated, including students from second, fourth and sixth semesters. 54% are male, while the rest (46%) are female, with an average age of 16 and a SD of 1, with a minimum age of 15 and a maximum of 19. Results show that the scale meets the statistical criteria that proves its validity and supports its use on the teenage population. Results support the hypothesis of the scale having evidence of validity and reliability, which justifies its use in research and in the creation of indicators of alcohol consumption in young people.

Abstract:
Unintentional poisonings in children, teenagers, and young people result in significant mortality and morbidity globally. The aim of the study was to estimate morbidity trends due to unintentional poisonings in children and young people with focus on unintentional poisonings from medicines, alcohol, and illicit drugs in Klaipeda County (Lithuania). The data (over 2003-2015) were obtained from the Health Insurance Fund and the Department of Statistics in Klaipeda. The longitudinal study was performed, and regression analysis was applied for the study. The children aged 0 to 14 and teenagers aged 15 to 19 treated at the hospital because of serious poisonings were examined. The morbidity per 1000 children was calculated. Among patients treated in the Klaipeda County hospitals because of serious poisonings, 48 % were children aged 0 to 19 years. In children aged 0 to 14 years, treated at the hospitals as inpatients, 48% were treated because of the poisonings from medicines, 29% - from alcohol, 1% - from illicit drugs, and 22% - from other substances. In the young people aged 15 to 19 years, the main substance of serious poisonings was alcohol - 52%, on the second place of hospital- treated poisonings were unintentional poisonings from medicines (34%), and poisonings due to illegal drugs were very few (5%). The study showed that the main substances of poisoning for children aged 0 to 14 years were medicines, whereas for ones aged 15 to 19 years were alcohol. The study revealed declining trends of non-fatal poisonings due to medicines in both children and teenagers groups, and male and female subgroups. However, there were no significant changes of poisonings due to alcohol in young people aged 15 to 19 years, and in girls aged 0 to 14 years. Poisonings due to drugs were very rare, and showed no significant change. Parents and children education and information within child safety prevention projects/ programs could influence the decrease in poisonings due to medicines. However, more attention should be put on prevention of alcohol use among children and teenagers, with focus on legislation and enforcement.

Abstract:
The illegal distribution of alcohol, narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances is now recognized as one of the serious threats to national security, public health and the gene pool of the peoples living in it. The spread of alcohol and drugs among minors and the increase in related administrative offenses are of particular concern. The article scientifically deals with the administrative and legal and law enforcement problems of the organization and activities of health authorities and institutions on the prevention of the use by minors of alcoholic beverages, intoxicating substances and narcotic drugs. The author describes the elements of the modern expansion of alcohol and narcotic drugs among people who have not reached social maturity, focuses on problems and solutions in the activities of the main institutions of the health system, which coordinating their activity with other participants in the system of prevention of youth administrative tort, are involved in the prevention of alcohol consumption and alcohol-containing products, narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances – narcological dispensaries. The conclusions formulate the need further development of «helplines» network and counseling centers close to the population, helping families with minors to receive immediate psychological and narcological assistance; to pay attention of general practitioners (family doctors) to an early search for drug-addicted minors, their treatment, to involve public organizations in this work regularly; to strengthen and coordinate the interaction of health care institutions with the relevant structures of the internal affairs bodies (police) involved in working with difficult teenagers, educational institutions, as well as with the relevant structures of Rosmolodezh in the prevention of administrative offenses related to the use of drugs and alcohol among persons under eighteen.

Abstract:
In recent decades, in many countries of Europe and the world, there has been a tendency for an earlier onset of alcohol consumption among adolescents, unfortunately, in this aspect, Ukraine is no exception. Aim. To study various aspects of alcohol use by adolescents and the level of awareness of their mothers to determine measures to prevent adolescent alcoholism in Ukraine. Materials and Methods. As part of the longitudinal study "Family and Children of Ukraine", the personal data of 989 adolescents aged 15-18 years (499 boys and 490 girls) and 1075 mothers were analyzed. Bibliosemantic, sociological and medical-statistical research methods are used. Results and Discussion. During 2014-2019, the share of children and adolescents hospitalized with acute poisoning in the intensive care unit of the National Children's Specialized Hospital "OKHMATDIT" of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine increased from 20.6 to 36.7 %. Research has shown that the vast majority of Ukrainian adolescents (75 %) consume alcohol during their lifetime; 31.0 % of adolescents have done so more than 10 times, and their first attempt to drink alcohol occurs at the age of 9 years and younger among both boys and girls. The survey found that 50.6% of adolescents confirmed that they had consumed alcohol in the past 30 days, of which 7.5% of adolescents admitted that they did so more than once a week. The survey allowed to determine the peculiarities of the use of various alcoholic beverages by adolescents in Ukraine: teenagers first "get acquainted" with beer, wine or champagne at the age of 14-15; alcoholic cocktail teenage girls consume for the first time 2 times more often at the age of 15; strong alcoholic beverages are most often consumed for the first time by adolescents aged 15–16 years. It was found that only half of the surveyed mothers (48.4 %) were aware of the fact of alcohol consumption by their adolescent children, while 40.7 % of mothers categorically forbid their children to drink alcohol, 46.5 % of mothers consider it undesirable, 8.7 % mothers do not prohibit alcohol in small quantities. Conclusions. The results of the study prove that the problem of alcohol consumption by children and adolescents in Ukraine remains relevant and requires immediate development of preventive measures for implementation in both school and family environments. Given the insufficient level of awareness of mothers about the fact of alcohol consumption by their children and the insufficient level of understanding of mothers of the dangers of this phenomenon, the need for further research on the prevention of alcohol dependence in adolescence is justified. Key Words: adolescents, alcoholic beverages, mothers of adolescents.

Abstract:
Hutauruk Village in Sipoholon Subdistrict is one of the tourist destination locations in North Tapanuli, which is a hot spring which is very crowded with tourists from outside Taput. with a very high rate of drug abuse. Due to the large number of outsiders coming this allows the rampant drug abuse that occurred in the village of Hutauruk due to the influence of outside culture that entered the village. Drug abuse is carried out by teenagers, adults and parents. In this village there are many groups of teenagers who use drugs. In the mechanism of substance abuse, peer groups (peer groups) have an influence that can encourage or trigger drug abuse in a person. Peers have an influence on the consumption behavior of substances such as tobacco, alcohol, and other drugs. Peer is an external factor that can also influence adolescence, both positive and negative promiscuity. This service was carried out in Hutauruk Village, Sipoholon District, North Tapanuli Regency. The output target of this service is partners understanding the importance of healthy living without drugs, being able to build self-confidence, being able to manage a doormeer business, building a doormeer business that fills in leisure time and a new source of income for partners because it brings economic value.

Abstract:
Among a variety of methods to prevent drug use among adolescents, school-community based prevention and intervention programs are prevalent. The impact of such programs will be compromised, however, if drug use among adolescents is impacted by forces apart from the impact of school-community prevention and intervention, such as the function of the family. On the other hand, prevention and intervention programs can have a powerful impact if teenage drug use is responded to through early intervention. The purpose of this study was to review a sample of students referred for drug assessments to determine how early intervention should occur and how involved high school and middle school students are with alcohol and other drugs.

Abstract:
We consider the current issue of teenagers’ attitude to psychoactive substances. A comprehensive study of the value relationship of teenagers to psychoactive substances and the motivation for their use is necessary. The teenagers development crisis leads to a drop in academic performance, a decrease in working capacity, negativism, alienation, ambivalence of feelings and much more, it is noted that the demonstrative “adulthood” of teenagers, their acute experience of the discrepancy between the external and internal worlds often lead them to behavioral transformations aimed at remaking reality for themselves. Based on the types of deviations characterized in psychology, we analyze the causes of chemical addiction. In the course of the study, we identify the main reasons that encourage teenagers to try drugs and consider the age differentiation of the reasons. The main motives of alcohol consumption by teenagers are determined. The results of the study were analyzed by gender of the respondents, and the peculiarities of the attitude to psychoactive substances and persons who use the above substances were noted. We present an expert assessment of the risk of teenagers’ dependence on psychoactive substances, given by schoolteachers, and identify the main causes that affect the risk of developing addiction. We note the necessity of conducting psychological preventive work with this group of respondents and the environment.

Abstract:
Alcohol use is the single most alarming behavior among youth in the United States. Adolescents especially are at risk for increases in heavy episodic drinking and drunkenness leading to alcohol-related problems such as academic failure, interpersonal violence, risky sexual behavior and death. In an effort to address this endemic issue, a number of alcohol use prevention programs have been developed and are currently implemented in the high school setting. Many of these programs, however, lack an empirical basis and have been unable to demonstrate significant reductions in alcohol use over time. The need for the development and dissemination of effective strategies to address adolescent drinking is evident. Recommendations for newly developing approaches encourage an emphasis on empirically-based content and easily implemented protocols. Expectancy challenge-based interventions have been identified by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism as having strong evidence supporting their effectiveness in reducing alcohol use among college students. Recent efforts to translate such programs into forms effective with high school adolescents have been met with mixed results. The focus of the present study was to modify, implement and evaluate the Expectancy Challenge Alcohol Literacy Curriculum (ECALC), a program currently validated for use with college populations, for high school adolescents. The single session, high school version of the ECALC was infused into the existing Health Education high school curriculum and implemented with those in the 9th through 12th grades. Measures of alcohol expectancies and alcohol use were completed anonymously by each participant before delivery of the program and for 30 days thereafter. Impact of the ECALC was compared to classes randomly assigned to an attention-matched control condition.; Findings revealed significant changes in alcohol expectancies and alcohol use reported by participants in the 11th and 12th grades following delivery of the ECALC. Changes were found across factor analytic and multidimensional scaling (MDS) statistical methods applied to the expectancy measure, as well as across measures of estimated intoxication and drinking quantity/frequency. Findings were consistent among both male and female participants. Reductions in alcohol use were not found among 9th and 10th grade participants, and expectancy changes were inconsistent. The assessment periods for baseline and follow-up were thirty days, which may reflect a limitation in that a longer follow-up may be more likely to capture significant behavioral changes over time. This study was the first to apply both factor analytic and MDS methods to analysis of the Comprehensive Effects of Alcohol questionnaire, with clear implications for expectancy measurement techniques likely to be most appropriate for capturing changes in expectancy activation patterns over time. Overall, this study represents an important advance in the development of an empirically-based and validated alcohol use prevention program effective for use with adolescents. In addition, the ECALC serves as a prevention program that is easily implemented in the high school setting, requiring only 50 minutes of class time, a classroom, and a motivated educator.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Introduction: Adolescents are recognised as a nutritionally at-risk group, as they have high nutritional demand for growth and development, poor eating behaviour as well as a propensity for unhealthy behaviours. Heavy alcohol use, particularly in the form of binge drinking, is typical for an alarming proportion of school-going adolescents and is a plausible contributor to the nutritional challenges in adolescents, but this has not yet been fully investigated. Aim: This study investigated the potential influences of alcohol use on the nutritional status of adolescents with alcohol use disorders (AUDs), specifically with regards to their eating behaviour and dietary intake, growth and weight status, iron status, as well as vitamin D and calcium status. Methods: Substance use, physical activity, eating behaviour, dietary intake, growth and weight status, iron status and vitamin D and calcium status were assessed and compared in heavy drinking adolescents (meeting DSM-IV criteria for AUDs) (n=81) and in light/non-drinking adolescents without AUDs (non-AUDs)(n=81), matched for age, gender, language, socio-economic status and education. Observed dietary intake distributions were adjusted statistically to obtain usual nutrient intake distributions. Regression-adjusted differences between the groups were assessed using multi-level mixed effects linear regression, adjusting for potential confounders. Results: Lifetime alcohol dose in standard drinks of alcohol was orders of magnitude higher in the AUDs group compared to the non-AUDs group. AUDs adolescents had a binge alcohol use pattern and a “weekends-only” style of alcohol consumption. Poor eating patterns (breakfast skipping and frequent snacking), poor food choices (energy-dense and nutrient-poor foods) and low fruit and vegetable intake (non-AUDs 90 [42.4-153.3]; AUDs 88.3 [30.0-153.0] grams per day) in both groups were reflected in the poor nutritional quality of the diet. More than half of adolescents in both groups were at risk of inadequate intakes of folate (non-AUDs 97.5%; AUDs 98.8%), vitamin C (non-AUDs 65%; AUDs 67.5%), vitamin A (non-AUDs 80%; AUDs 82.5%), vitamin E (non-AUDs 78.8%; AUDs 51.3%), magnesium (non-AUDs 98.8%; AUDs 97.5%), and phosphorus (non-AUDs 76.3%; AUDs 73.8%) and all participants were at risk of inadequate calcium and vitamin D intakes. AUDs adolescents had a greater intake of unhealthy foods (energy-dense nutrient-poor) and a significantly greater energy intake than non-AUDs adolescents (p<0.001) that exceeded energy requirements. AUDs adolescents consumed foods high in unhealthy fats significantly more frequently (p=0.037) than the non-AUDs adolescents and had ensuing greater total fat (p<0.001), saturated fat (p<0.001) and cholesterol (p=0.009) intakes. Frequency of intake of sodium-rich foods was significantly higher in AUDs adolescents (p=0.001) and prevalence of risk of excessive sodium intake was significantly greater in the AUDs adolescents (45%) compared to non-AUDs adolescents (18.8%) (p<0.001). Anthropometric indices of growth and weight status were comparable between the groups and in line with that of the South African adolescent population. Female AUDs adolescents had increased odds (OR 2.42) of being overweight/obese compared to non-AUDs females. Physical activity in both groups was well below the WHO global recommendation. Iron store depletion (serum ferritin < 20 μg/L) was evident in a quarter of adolescents in both groups (non-AUDs 23.5%; AUDs 24.7%), with biochemical iron status measures (serum iron and total iron binding capacity) indicating a greater risk of iron store depletion in the AUDs group. Biochemical vitamin D insufficiency/deficiency (serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D < 30 ng/mL) was prevalent in both groups (non-AUDs 70.4%; AUDs 88.8%), although this was significantly greater in the AUDs group (p=0.013), with significantly lower serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels in the AUDs group compared to the non-AUDs group (p=0.038). Conclusions: Heavy alcohol use in the form of binge drinking in adolescents may have the following nutrition-related influences: increased intake of energy; unhealthy fats and sodium, increased risk of overweight/obesity in females; increased risk of iron store depletion; and increased risk of vitamin D insufficiency/deficiency. Persistence of heavy alcohol use, poor food choices and dietary intake may increase the risk for adverse nutrition-related health outcomes in the AUDs adolescents.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Inleiding: Adolessente het 'n verhoogde risko vir wanvoeding as gevolg van hul hoë voedingbehoeftes vir groei en ontwikkeling, swak eetgedrag, asook 'n geneigdheid tot verdere ongesonde gedrag. Swaar alkohol gebruik in die vorm van “binge” drinkery kom toenemend onder skoolgaande adolessente voor. Hierdie gedrag kan moontlik bydra tot die verhoogde voeding risiko in dié ouderdomsgroep. Hierdie moontlikheid is egter nog nie ten volle ondersoek nie. Doel: Hierdie studie het die potensiële invloed van alkohol gebruik op die voedingstatus van adolessente met alkohol gebruik versteurings (AGVs) ondersoek, spesifiek met betrekking tot hul eetgedrag en dieetinname, groei en gewigstatus asook yster-, vitamien D- en kalsiumstatus. Metodes: Swaar drinkende adolessente wat voldoen aan DSM-IV kriteria vir AGVs (n=81) en lig/nie-drinkende adolessente sonder AGVs (nie-AGVs) (n=81), wat afgepaar is vir ouderdom, geslag, taal, sosio-ekonomiese status en opvoedingsvlak is gewerf vir deelname aan die studie. Middel gebruik, fisiese aktiwiteit, eetgedrag, dieetinname, groei en gewigstatus, ysterstatus en vitamien D- en kalsiumstatus is tussen die twee groepe vergelyk. Waargenome dieetinname verspreidings is statisties aangepas om gewoontelike nutriëntinname te verkry. Regressie-aangepaste verskille tussen die groepe is met behulp van ’n meervoudige gemengde effekte liniêre regressie model getoets, waartydens daar vir moontlike gestrengelde faktore aangepas is. Resultate: Leeftyd alkohol dosis, gemeet in standaard alkohol drankies, was beduidend hoër in die AGVs groep in vergelyking met die nie-AGVs groep. Alkohol gebruik in die AGVs adolessente het ‘n “binge” patroon en ‘n “slegs naweke” styl getoon. Swak eetgewoontes (oorslaan van ontbyt en gereelde peuselgewoontes), swak voedsel keuses (energie-dig en laag in nutriënte) en lae groente en vrugte inname (nie-AGVs 90.0 [42.4-153.3]; AGVs 88.3 [30.0-153.0] gram per dag), in beide groepe, is gereflekteer in die swak voeding kwaliteit van die dieet. ‘n Risiko vir onvoldoende inname van folaat (nie-AGVs 97.5%; AGVs 98.8%), vitamien C (nie-AGVs 65%; AGVs 67.5%), vitamien A (nie-AGVs 80%; AGVs 82.5%), vitamien E (nie-AGVs 78.8%; AGVs 51.3%), magnesium (nie-AGVs 98.8%; AGVs 97.5%), en fosfor (nie-AGVs 76.3%; AGVs 73.8%) was teenwoordig in meer as helfte van adolessente in beide groepe, asook Inleiding: Adolessente het 'n verhoogde risko vir wanvoeding as gevolg van hul hoë voedingbehoeftes vir groei en ontwikkeling, swak eetgedrag, asook 'n geneigdheid tot verdere ongesonde gedrag.

Metodes: Swaar drinkende adolessente wat voldoen aan DSM-IV kriteria vir AGVs (n=81) en lig/nie-drinkende adolessente sonder AGVs (nie-AGVs) (n=81), wat afgepaar is vir ouderdom, geslag, taal, sosio-ekonomiese status en opvoedingsvlak is gewerf vir deelname aan die studie. Middel gebruik, fisiese aktiwiteit, eetgedrag, dieetinname, groei en gewigstatus, ysterstatus en vitamien D- en kalsiumstatus is tussen die twee groepe vergelyk. Waargenome dieetinname verspreidings is statisties aangepas om gewoontelike nutriëntinname te verkry. Regressie-aangepaste verskille tussen die groepe is met behulp van ’n meervoudige gemengde effekte liniêre regressie model getoets, waartydens daar vir moontlike gestrengelde faktore aangepas is. Resultate: Leeftyd alkohol dosis, gemeet in standaard alkohol drankies, was beduidend hoër in die AGVs groep in vergelyking met die nie-AGVs groep. Alkohol gebruik in die AGVs adolessente het ‘n “binge” patroon en ‘n “slegs naweke” styl getoon. Swak eetgewoontes (oorslaan van ontbyt en gereelde peuselgewoontes), swak voedsel keuses (energie-dig en laag in nutriënte) en lae groente en vrugte inname (nie-AGVs 90.0 [42.4-153.3]; AGVs 88.3 [30.0-153.0] gram per dag), in beide groepe, is gereflekteer in die swak voeding kwaliteit van die dieet. ‘n Risiko vir onvoldoende inname van folaat (nie-AGVs 97.5%; AGVs 98.8%), vitamien C (nie-AGVs 65%; AGVs 67.5%), vitamien A (nie-AGVs 80%; AGVs 82.5%), vitamien E (nie-AGVs 78.8%; AGVs 51.3%), magnesium (nie-AGVs 98.8%; AGVs 97.5%), en fosfor (nie-AGVs 76.3%; AGVs 73.8%) was teenwoordig in meer as helfte van adolessente in beide groepe, asook

Abstract:
Although alcohol plays an important role in psychiatric morbidity, there is a general lack of strategies within psychiatric care to intervene at alcohol problems in an early stage (secondary prevention). The aim of this thesis was to increase knowledge of adequate forms of secondary alcohol prevention in psychiatric care.   The capacity of three brief screening instruments was investigated in a psychiatric outpatient sample (n=1811). The results indicate that the HED (heavy episodic drinking) screener, strongly recommended for health care settings, is not sufficiently sensitive in a psychiatric setting. Instead, the full AUDIT (Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test) is recommended. The knowledge and attitudes of psychiatric staff members to problem-drinking patients were studied and the effects of a three-hour training course were investigated. Confidence in self-perceived capacity to intervene in more severe alcohol problems was raised among all staff after training. Awareness of early signs of problem drinking was raised among psychologists and social workers. The therapeutic attitude of the psychiatric staff was higher when compared with primary care staff. Two forms of brief intervention were delivered by clinical psychiatric staff. At 12 months, 29% of all participants had improved their drinking habits, moving from hazardous to non-hazardous level (21%) or from harmful to hazardous level (8%). In the improved group, mean AUDIT score was reduced from 11.0 points at baseline to 5.5 points. Differences in outcome between the two interventions could not be identified. Nine high-risk drinking young female psychiatric patients were interviewed, focusing on reasons for excessive drinking and factors facilitating a change in drinking habits. Alcohol played an important role in the lives of the young women. It made them feel social and helped them deal with unbearable emotions. It was also used as a means of self-harm, representing the first stage in an escalating self-harm process. They expressed a need for help from their caregivers in addressing the underlying reasons for drinking. Secondary alcohol prevention strategies including appropriate screening methods, staff training and the elaboration of tailored interventions are urgently needed in psychiatric care. The findings of this thesis can be used when forming such strategies.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between alcohol, tobacco, and marijuana use among teenagers. This study examined three research questions: (1) Is there a relationship between demographic characteristics (i.e., sex and race), the attitudinal variable (attachment to family), and the admitted use of marijuana, alcohol, and tobacco among teenagers? (2) Is there a relationship between the use of marijuana by teenagers and the use of tobacco by teenagers? (3) Is there a relationship between the use of marijuana by teenagers and the use of alcohol by teenagers? The data used for this paper were from the Evaluation of the Gang Resistance Education and Training Program research project (Esbensen, 2003). The analysis found that the frequency of teenage alcohol use had the strongest correlation with the use of marijuana. The frequency of teenage tobacco use was also found to have a significant correlation to marijuana use.

Abstract:
Adolescents from nine intact health classes from two high schools participated either in a traditional lecturebased alcohol prevention intervention or a nontraditional experiential-based intervention. The nontraditional intervention focussed on attitudes toward drinking and the misperceptions associated with alcohol consumption norms. Subjects completed several self-report measures on attitudes toward drinking (own, perceived friends', and perceived school's), perceived ranking of alcohol consumption compared to closest friends and compared to the school, intent to drink, and actual reporting of alcohol consumption. For the nontraditional intervention, it was hypothesized that students would change their perceptions of others' attitudes toward drinking and their perception of the norm enough to decrease their alcohol consumption. Results indicated the intervention changed the perceived attitude of the school, but not enough to significantly change consumption levels. These findings confirm that misperceptions occur and that they influence alcohol consumption.

Abstract:
"The universal Prevention Program of Substance Use among University Students (PUNAV) is based on the strategy of correcting normative beliefs (NBs) regarding alcohol use. The current research shown that NBs are a significant factor in relation to alcohol consumption. This study has explored whether a change of NBs is associated with a decrease of alcohol use among university students. The data used in this study were collected before the implementation of PUNAV in September 2018 (N=137, Mage = 21.9, 77% women) and 18 months later after the implementation of the program in March 2020 (N=54, 77% women). Participants provided information on alcohol consumption, alcohol dependence, alcohol harmful use and descriptive NBs regarding alcohol consumption. The level of NBs at T2 was subtracted from level of NB at T1 (T1 – T2) to identify changes in NBs over time. Using SPSS 21, a linear regression model which controlled for the level of the outcome variables at T1 and observed changes in NBs were used to predict the outcome variables measured at T2. Alcohol consumption and NBs after PUNAV decreased alcohol consumption but increased the dependence and alcohol harmful consequences. The regression model, which controlled for alcohol use at T1, showed that a significant change in NBs was negatively associated with alcohol consumption at T2. The findings have in general shown that the observed changes in NBs (corrected NBs) were more likely to decrease alcohol consumption among university students."

Abstract:
Self-destructive addictions include for example overuse alcohol use or smoking. In the Czech Republic, alcohol consumption is still very popular and for many people it is not risky to overuse it. Unfortunately, the number of people addicted to alcohol is not declining, which is why primary prevention is still very important. Primary prevention takes place from an early age in the family, but the school itself is an irreplaceable component of primary prevention. In the schools primary prevention takes place mainly in the subject of health education. Unfortunately, despite the exclusive position of primary prevention in schools, its effectiveness is ineffective. The biggest mistakes in primary prevention include intimidation, targeting the pupil's cognitive component, unconceptual conception or condemnation of addicts and emphasizing their weakness. The paper focuses on alcoholism as a maladaptation to a crisis situation in connection with its prevention in elementary school. Sinha (2009) draws attention to the connection between alcoholism and maladaptation in his research. The research used an analysis of the literature, research and articles from which the theoretical basis was created and then the qualitative research itself was conducted, which consisted of narrative interviews with five respondents who had experienced a crisis, used maladaptive strategies and subsequently became alcoholics. Then, case studies were written from the statements of the respondents, which were also used in the methodological materials created as didactic transformations for elementary school teachers. The results of the research show the connection between maladaptive strategies and the progress of alcohol dependence and the necessary systematic connection in primary prevention so that the student understands this issue in a context not randomly. In connection with primary prevention at elementary school were created 10 methodological materials for elementary school teachers, which will provide didactic transformation. The methodological materials therefore form a complex of preparations on the topic of selfdestructive addictions, where in addition to the issue of addictions, students are also 120 introduced to topics such as mental illness, violent behavior, adaptive and maladaptive strategies, crises and the use of relaxation techniques. Thus, the materials point to an important connection between these topics, thanks to which students would be given a systematic and comprehensive view of self-destructive addictions.

"Objectives: The aim of the study is to examine the long-term effectiveness of the school-based drug prevention programs Unplugged and Unplugged2 using a Solomon design and supplemented with n-Prevention booster sessions on the cumulative index (CI) of reported alcohol use (AU) and smoking. Methods: In 2013/2014, Unplugged was implemented during 12 consecutive weeks in Slovak primary schools. A sample of 744(M=12.5; 58.72%girls) was collected before program implementation(T1) and 12months later(T3). In 2017/2018, Unplugged2 was implemented by each school over 6months. A sample of 408(M=14.48; 51.96%girls) was collected before program implementation (T1), immediately after implementation(T2) and 12months later(T3). Participation in Unplugged was divided into control and experimental groups and Unplugged2 into control, experimental and experimental groups with n-Prevention, a pre-test and post-test or with post-test only. CI in the past 30 days was dichotomized (0-not used,1-AU, smoking or both). Binary logistic regressions were used to analyze the data at every measurement point. The moderation effect of gender was examined. The CI at T1 in Unplugged and Unplugged2 with a pre-test and post-test, and CI at T2 in Unplugged2 with a post-test were used as the control variables. Results: There was no significant effect of Unplugged and Unplugged2 with the pre-test and post-test. Unplugged2 with a post-test was significantly associated with CI at T3. The experimental group with n- Prevention was less likely to use alcohol and/or smoke. There was no significant effect or moderation effect of gender. Conclusions: The results show the long-term effectiveness of a preventive program is more pronounced with booster sessions, specifically with the post-test design."

Abstract:
Introduction: Cannabis use combined with other substances, such as tobacco and/or alcohol, is related to heavy patterns of substance use and adverse social outcomes. We aimed to examine whether early age of cannabis initiation was associated with dual simultaneous substance (tobacco + cannabis / alcohol + cannabis) use and tri-use (tobacco + alcohol + cannabis). Methods: We included participants aged between 12-21 years old (n= 21,127) that reported any cannabis use in the 2016-2019 National Survey on Drug Use and Health. Blunt use was defined as smoking part of a cigar with cannabis in it (“taking some tobacco out of a cigar and replace it with marijuana”) and simultaneous alcohol/cannabis use as “using marijuana/hashish at the same time or within a couple of hours of last alcohol use”. We created four-level categorical variables, one for the exposure (age of cannabis initiation) and one for the outcome (simultaneous use). The exposure variable was comprised of the following levels based on different adolescent developmental stages: 1) 12-13 years old; 2) 14-15 years old, 3) 16-18 years old), and 4) 19-21 years old. The four outcome categories were defined as: 1) cannabis use only (no simultaneous use), 2) blunt use (simultaneous cannabis and tobacco use), 3) simultaneous alcohol/cannabis, and 4) tri-use (tobacco, cannabis and alcohol). Weighted multinomial logistic regression was used to obtain adjusted odds ratios (aOR) for categories of use, adjusting for sociodemographic characteristics (reference outcome category: cannabis use only). Results: Most participants were 16+ years old (88%), non-Hispanic white (56%), with a family income equal or higher than $40K (54%) and a mean age of cannabis initiation of 15 years old. When examining simultaneous use outcomes, 70% of the participants reported some form of simultaneous use (54.85% blunt use, 14.72% tri-use, and 1.12% simultaneous alcohol/cannabis). Regarding age of cannabis initiation, 18.97% started at age 12-13, 31.85% at age 14-15, 42.18% at age 16-18 and 7.00% at age 19-21. Cannabis initiation in early adolescence (< 16 years old) was associated with simultaneous use outcomes when compared to cannabis initiation at age 16 and older. More specifically, when comparing with cannabis initiation at age 19-21, individuals reporting cannabis initiation at age 12-13 had 24.26 times the likelihood of tri-use (95% CI=17.33-33.95); and 6.64 times the likelihood of blunt use (95% CI=5.15-8.55), however, no associations were found with simultaneous alcohol/cannabis use (aOR 2.98, 95% CI= 0.94-9.37). When using cannabis initiation at age 16-18 as reference, cannabis initiation at age 12-13 was associated with six times the likelihood of tri-use (95% CI= 5.02-7.86), three times of blunt (95% CI= 2.42-3.71), and twice of simultaneous alcohol/cannabis use (95% CI= 1.26-4.40). Conclusions: Cannabis initiation in early adolescence was associated with dual and tri- simultaneous substance use. Interventions focused on delaying cannabis initiation could have a positive impact on decreasing dual and tri-substance use. Considering that 1 in 5 individuals reporting cannabis use started in early adolescence, primary prevention strategies should start before the age of 12.
