Abstract:
Adolescence is one of population at risk of drug abuse. One kind of drug is alcohol. A family has avery important role in the risk of alcohol abuse in adolescents. A family simultaneously has structureand function which very important for adolescent development. This study aimed to analyze therelationship between parenting style, family power structure and risk of drug abuse: alcohol inadolescents in the high school of Kalisat Sub-district of Jember Regency. The research method wasanalytical observation with cross sectional approach. Respondents were 249 adolescents withmultistage random sampling. Independent variable is parenting style, family power structure; andrisk of drug abuse: alcohol is dependent variable. The data were analyzed by chi square (α = 0,05).The result showed that significant relationship between parenting style and risk of drug abuse:alcohol (p value 0,000); significant relationship between family power structure and risk of drugabuse: alcohol (p value 0,004). Family power can protect adolescents from the risk of alcoholabuse. There are rules must be believed and performed by adolescents. Furthermore, family canperform parenting with balance of freedom and responsibility of adolescents. However, parents shallconsider the personality of their adolescents.Keywords: risk of alcohol abuse, parenting style, family power structure

Abstract:
According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse, 70 percent of adolescents have experimented with alcohol, while 20 percent have experimented with prescription drugs before their senior year in high school. Alcohol and drug abuse has become a nationwide problem. A small rural community in southern Indiana reports that almost 12 percent of its population uses drugs daily. The authors hypothesize that current school-based alcohol and drug curriculums are not robust enough to divert risky behavior during adolescence. Surveys were administered to residents living in two separate transitional homes for people with addiction. The surveys consisted of questions regarding drug and alcohol abuse related to childhood education. The process was completed using a descriptive study. Participants in the study (n = 17) revealed valuable information confirming their rationales for substance abuse. Overwhelmingly, all participants agreed that drug education needs to be available in early childhood education. As substance abuse escalates, so must our efforts to research and understand the problem. The examination of current adolescent drug and alcohol prevention programs isessential to help promote program evaluation and in identifying potential education needs for our youth.

Abstract:
BackgroundSelf-report data from 2716 adolescents aged 15–17 years old in Irish schools were analysed to consider the association between psycho-social factors and the presence of adolescent substance and alcohol abuse, with an emphasis on family circumstances.MethodsData were collected using the ‘Lifestyle and Coping Questionnaire’ which includes questions about lifestyle, coping, problems, alcohol and drug use, deliberate self-harm, depression, anxiety, impulsivity and self-esteem. Two additional questions were added to the standard questionnaire regarding parental substance misuse.ResultsAdolescent substance abuse was more common in boys; parental substance misuse increased the risk of adolescent abuse of alcohol and drugs; the increased risk was marginally higher if the parental substance abuse was maternal rather than paternal; the increased risk was higher if the parental substance abuse affected both rather than one of the parents, especially regarding adolescent drug abuse; the magnitude of the increased risk was similar for boys and girls. Parental substance misuse increased the risk of adolescent substance abuse even after adjusting for other family problems and the adolescent’s psychological characteristics.ConclusionsThis study indicates that parental substance misuse affects the development of both alcohol and drug misuse in adolescent children independent of other family problems and the psychological characteristics of the adolescent. A wider perspective is needed, including societal and family issues, especially parental behaviour, when attempting to reduce risk of adolescent addiction. The impact on children of parental substance misuse also needs consideration in clinical contexts.

Abstract:
Background: Substance abuse is a growing societal problem with adolescents being at increased risk. The few studies in Nigerian adolescents have not factored in their knowledge base with regard to the concept of substance abuse. Objectives: This study determined the indulgence in and knowledge of substance abuse and associated factors among adolescents. Methods: This was a questionnaire based study involving 10 to 19year olds recruited from an adolescent summer camp in Anambra state, South-East Nigeria. Results: The data of 276adolescents was analyzed, male–91, 33%, M: F = 1: 2. Mean age was 16.4 ± 1.4years. 13.8% (38) accepted they had abused substances in the past; 74.3% (205) had the correct knowledge of the meaning of substance abuse; 10.1% (28) admitted taking substances for pleasure. The substances taken included Alcohol (67.9%), Cigarette (25.0%), Tramadol (10.7%), Cocaine (7.1%), among others. Multiple substances were taken 28.6% of the time. Age category had no significant association with the abuse of substances (X2–2.656, p = 0.282). Stratified by age category, gender had a significant association with substance abuse in Late adolescence (n = 11; M–9, 81.8%; F–2, 18.2%; X2 = 6.893, p = 0.016) but not Mid-adolescence (n = 27; M – 10, 37.0%; F – 17, 63.0%; X2 = 0.749, p = 0.500). Conclusion: An unacceptable proportion of the adolescents were already exposed to substances/drugs in spite of having suboptimal knowledge. Adolescents need to be educated on substance abuse and its dangers in order to curb this in the society. Keywords: Drug abuse; adolescence; knowledge; Nigeria.

To the Editor.— Jacobson and colleagues (Pediatrics 1986;77:236-24l) present a convincing case for comprehensive reassessment of adolescents with serious closed head injuries. However, they make no mention of evaluating such patients for drug or alcohol abuse. Such abuse/dependency can contribute significantly to the etiology of traumatic injuries. We interviewed 202 middle-class adolescents in treatment for drug/alcohol abuse/dependency: 86 (43%) had been involved in at least one motor vehicle accident while intoxicated by drugs, alcohol, or both; 50% had been involved in more than one such incident.

Abstract:
This research aimed at identifying patterns of substance abuse among South African adolescents and exploring the relationship between psychological well-being and substance abuse. Psychological well-being was assessed with selected items of the Bar-On EQ-I and Diener's Life Satisfaction scale. Self-reported substance abuse patterns of 1 918 learners between the ages of 12 and 19 from 13 schools in Tshwane were recorded. Schools were selected to represent the population composition of the area. It was found that substance abuse (current alcohol use, excessive alcohol use, and use of illicit drugs) increased with age and that nearly twice as many males as females abused substances. Language group was found to be a determining factor with regard to current and excessive use of alcohol; however, it was not found to influence drug use. An analysis of variance showed that adolescents who used drugs had significantly lower levels of psychological well-being and life satisfaction. The same was not found for excessive use of alcohol. The results can contribute to a better understanding of substance use behaviour and to identifying adolescents who may be at risk of abuse.

Abstract:
Alcohol and other drug use are common in youth, but neurocognitive sequelae are unclear. This study examines the relationship between neuropsychological functioning and protracted substance use in adolescence. One hundred fifteen adolescents, ages 13 to 19 years, were recruited from inpatient substance abuse treatment programs and followed for 4 years. Adolescents were administered a comprehensive battery of neuropsychological tests and evaluated on substance use involvement during treatment, and at 6-month, 1-year, 2-year, and 4-year follow-up time points. Protracted substance abuse over the 4 years of follow-up was associated with significantly poorer subsequent functioning on tests of attention. In addition, alcohol and drug withdrawal accounted for significant variance in visuospatial functioning, above and beyond demographic, educational, and health variables in detoxified late adolescents and young adults. Results suggest that alcohol and drug withdrawal may be a more powerful marker of protracted neuropsychological impairments than other indices of youthful alcohol and drug involvement.

Abstract:
In this study family dynamics, personality, alcohol and drug abuse, coping strategies and sexual abuse in nondelinquent and delinquent adolescents were compared and a path model of aggression among Korean adolescents was constructed. Using a proportional stratified random sampling method, a sample of 2,100 Korean adolescents was assessed. Data were collected using a cross-sectional design, via anonymous, self-reporting questionnaires. Delinquent adolescents were found to have a higher incidence of dysfunctional family dynamics, greater incidence of antisocial personality, higher tendency to depression, and higher levels of aggressive impulsiveness than nondelinquent adolescents. Delinquent adolescents reported higher incidences of being sexually abused, and alcohol and drug abuse, and showed a greater tendency toward cognitive and behavioral avoidance coping strategies compared to nondelinquent adolescents. Person-related aggressive impulsiveness, antisocial personality tendency, and self-injurious aggressive impulsiveness had the largest significant total effects on aggressive behavior among Korean adolescents.

Abstract:
This study evaluated the correlates of 16 scales for the identification of substance abuse with the adolescent form of the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI-A). As predicted, the scales that were previously validated with adolescents in treatment for substance abuse (i.e., the Alcohol/Drug Problem Proneness scale, or PRO; the Alcohol/Drug Problem Acknowledgment scale, or ACK; the MacAndrew scale, or MAC-R; the Substance Abuse Proclivity scale, or SAP; and the Psychopathy scale, or PSP) were reliably and positively correlated with therapists' ratings of behavioral undercontrol and substance abuse and negatively correlated with ratings of behavioral overcontrol. There were few reliable correlates for the scales that had not been previously validated with adolescents in treatment for substance abuse, and these scales were not reliably correlated with therapists' ratings of substance abuse.

Abstract:
Adolescence is a period of development characterised by risk taking typically involving the initiation and escalation of alcohol and drug use. Adolescence is also a critical period of neurobiological change behaviourally manifested as increases in impulsivity. Contemporary models of personality conceptualise impulsivity as a trait with at least two related but distinct factors (reward drive and rash impulsivity). Both are said to play a role in the propensity to engage in substance use and the escalation of alcohol and drug use. This model assumes that personality influences substance use however it is also possible that substance use may influence the development of personality. The current study investigated the cross-sectional and prospective bi-directional relationships between reward drive and rash impulsivity, and alcohol use and substance use problems in males and females. A prospective longitudinal design was used involving 1059 adolescents (males = 526, females = 533) followed up annually for 5 years from Grade 8 to Grade 12. Using , the results of this research provided support for a two-factor model of impulsivity. Further, evidence was found for bi-directional relationships between personality and substance use. As expected, the bi-directional relationship between initial levels of reward drive and rash impulsivity were significantly associated with initial levels of alcohol use and substance use problems. Rash impulsivity at baseline was a significant predictor of growth in alcohol use for both males and females. There was a significant association in the bi-directional relationship between growth in reward drive and rash impulsivity, and growth in alcohol use and substance use problems. The results of a sequential LGM found that escalated substance use problems overtime increased reward drive and rash impulsivity overtime for females only. The results of this study show that reward drive and rash impulsivity both contribute differentially to the escalation of substance use. Further, the converse of this relationship was also found where substance use influenced personality development. These findings highlight several risks for adolescents during critical periods of development and suggest the importance of early detection and interventions for at risk adolescents.

Abstract:
The purpose of this project was to design and evaluate a sport-based life skills intervention designed for indigenous New Zealand (Maori) youth who may be exposed to drug or alcohol abuse. An indigenous research approach known as Kaupapa Maori research was utilised. As an indigenous approach, Kaupapa Maori signifies the importance of research with Maori being initiated, determined, and validated by Maori and in particular, by those directly involved with the research initiative (Bishop, 1996; Tuhiwai-Smith, 1999). As a result of adhering to a Kaupapa Maori approach the participants determined additional areas of interest including academic self-esteem, intrinsic motivation for schoolwork and career awareness. Therefore, the initial project grew to include several other life skills areas identified by the participants. The life skills basis of the 'Hokowhitu' intervention was adapted from the Going for the Goal (GOAL) and Sports United to Promote Education and Recreation (SUPER) programmes developed by Professor Steve Danish (Danish, 1997; Danish & Nellen, 1997; Danish, Meyer, Mash, Howard, Curl, Brunelle & Owens, 1998). The GOAL and SUPER programmes taught life skills to adolescents including informed decision-making, health-enhancing activities (e.g., goal setting) and health-compromising activities (e.g., drug & alcohol abuse). A New Zealand (NZ) version of the GOAL programme was successfully pilot-tested in 1997-1998 in NZ schools with non-Maori adolescents (Hodge & Danish, 1999; Hodge, Cresswell, Sherburn, & Dugdale, 1999). The evaluation of the Hokowhitu programme used both quantitative and qualitative analyses. The qualitative investigation received an enthusiastic response and supportive results for the Hokowhitu programme. Many of the research participants preferred the qualitative investigative approach because of the culturally recognised components (e.g., Te kanohi ki kanohi or face-to-face method used to ask questions). The quantitative investigation used; Mann-Whitney U, Wilcoxon, Chi Square and McNemar statistical tests (Harraway, 1995). The outcome of the overall programme evaluation showed that the Hokowhitu programme provided improvements in; (a) academic self-esteem, (b) increased intrinsic motivation for schoolwork, (c) increased career awareness, and (d) increased drug and alcohol awareness in adolescent Maori. Also, there was some statistical support for the Hokowhitu programme and evidence that life skills and Kaupapa Maori ideologies were able to be successfully integrated into a sport-based programme.

Abstract:
In 1996 Francois Bloemhof's teenage fiction, Slinger-slinger, was a prize-winner in the beginners' category of the Sanlam competition for fiction for youth. The book was acclaimed because of the open manner in which the author wrote about sensitive themes such as hetero- and homosexuality, promiscuity, divorce, incest, tense family relationships, and drug and alcohol abuse. The main theme of Slinger-slinger is teenage sexual aspects, such as the sexual awakening and identity of teenagers. In 1998 a sensation was caused in the media as upset parents, teachers and other adults protested against the inclusion of Slinger-slinger in the ATKV's Children's Book Award, category 13-15 years of age. Two conflicting opinions about Slingerslinger could be distinguished: one group was of the opinion that the sexual theme and strong language were not suited for teenage fiction, while the other group was of the opinion that teenagers needed to read about realistic themes to prepare them for the real world. No comments were published about the opinions of the supposed readers, namely teenagers. Steenberg (1988:168-172), Van der Westhuizen (1989:5-7) and Van Zyl (1990:17) wrote that teenagers read to fulfil their needs. Teenagers' reading needs are directly connected to their emotional, cognitive and physical developmental stages. The aim of the study The aim of this study is firstly to evaluate Slinger-slinger according to the elements of the reader study model to determine whether it addresses the reading needs and interests of teenage readers; and secondly to ascertain whether teenagers liked Slinger-slinger. Research procedures and methodology A study of the literature was done in order to determine the reading needs and developmental tasks of teenagers, and the role that teenage fiction can play in their development to adulthood. Together with this background study, an evaluation model, containing story elements viewed from a reader study perspective, as well as criteria for the evaluation of the handling of sexual aspects in teenage fiction, was developed to determine whether Slinger-slinger is successful teenage fiction. In the empirical study the above-mentioned evaluation model for teenage fiction were applied to Slinger-slinger. In the second part of the empirical study a questionnaire was compiled to obtain the opinions of teenage readers about the success of Slinger-slinger as a whole, as well as the success of the handling of the sexual aspects. The questionnaire also served to obtain information about the reading needs of teenage readers in regard to realistic teenage fiction and teenage fiction with a sexual theme. Conclusion It is concluded that Francois Bloemhof's Slinger-slinger succeeds as realistic teenage fiction because it answers to the reading needs of teenage readers. Bloemhof succeeded in his handling of the sexual aspects in Slinger-slinger an in doing so fulfils teenager's reading and information needs, and thus assists them on their way to maturity. The questionnaire ascertained that the teenage readers who participated in the study were of the opinion that Slinger-slinger is a successful and interesting teenage book, and that they would like to read more realistic Afrikaans teenage fiction such as Slinger-slinger.

Abstract:
Introduction Substance use in adolescents with disabilities is rising, containing the prevalence of substance-related disorders (SRD) such as addiction, mental or health disorders, cancer, accidents and mortality. Yet little is known about the existing substance use prevention programs among adolescents with dosabilities or physical impairments. The aim of this systematic review was to investigate the effects of school-based interventions or prevention programs directed at the reduction of alcohol, tobacco and drug use in young adolescents with disabilities or physical impairments. Method Five scientific databases were explored mainly for school-based randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and prevention programs examining the effects of substance use interventions and prevention programs on adolescents with disabilities or physical impairments. Guided by the NICE guidelines, eligible articles were detected from which data were collected. A systematic literature review was performed for many diverse outcomes such as, substance use knowledge, substance use, modelling social environment, intention to quit smoking, peer pressure, etc. Results The primary literature search resulted in 821 articles. Five studies were incuded in the systematic literature review. Most of the collected studies were about adolescents with intellectual disabilities (MBID or MMID). The review's sample group ranged from 12-to 18-year-old adolescents. Included studies had a total sample of 981 out of which 13 were teachers. Studies measured both primary and secondary outcomes like modelling smoking, substance use and frequency of alcohol use. Conclusion This review summarized evidence about interventions and prevention programs aimed at decreasing or preventing substance use in adolescents with various types of disabilities or physical impairments. Substance use education increases knowledge about alcohol, tobacco and drug use and the health-related harms in teenagers with disabilities. Additional research is required especially among teenagers with intellectual disabilities and other types of disabilities.

Abstract:

The aim of this study was, with a theoretical approach, to examine women’s alcohol- and drug problems. Our questions at issues considered early debut, heredity and environment as well as which factors can explain women’s use of alcohol and drugs. This study is based on 5 international published articles, Swedish literature and reports and a minor questionnaire meant to be at help in our analysis of the material. We examine our material with the control theory, the social learning theory, the masculinity theory and developmental psychological theory. Research shows an increase in young women’s alcohol and drug abuse and possible reasons are increase of media exposure, changed gender roles, sexual abuse, stress and mental health problems and social marginalization. Our questionnaire shows similar results as earlier research. We found that peers and boyfriends influenced the women in our study in their early onset and that heredity and environment also is pertinent factors for developing abuse of drugs and alcohol. For the women in our study, there seems to be a lack of protective factors which researchers find important. On the contrary, there seemed to be several numbers of risk factors who could explain the women’s development of alcohol and drug abuse.

Abstract:
Objetivos. Presentación del concepto de pharming. Revisión de la bibliografía actual, epidemiología e implicaciones en el tratamiento. Discusión sobre el impacto en nuestra población de referencia y las posibles implicaciones en el diagnóstico y tratamiento. Material y métodos. Exposición de un caso de Pharming en adolescente. Revisión bibliográfica mediante búsqueda en PUBMED y EMBASE con las palabras clave: adolescents, drug abuse, over-the-counter medicines, prescription medication. Búsqueda en bases de datos epidemiológicas de nuestra región y de nuestro país. Resultados y conclusiones. El concepto de Pharming se refiere al uso de medicación con o sin receta, con una posología diferente a la recomendada y con un objetivo distinto al terapéutico, generalmente recreativo. El consumo suele realizarse acompañando a otros tóxicos. Se presenta el caso de un adolescente de 17 años con uso de levomepromazina y alcohol en contexto recreativo. Fue atendido en Urgencias hospitalarias en dos ocasiones por este motivo. Las primeras descripciones hablan del uso de fármacos sin receta, antitusígenos generalmente, pero en los últimos años se ha registrado el abuso de casi cualquier tipo de medicación, desde benzodiacepinas a estimulantes y medicación para el trastorno por déficit de atención con hiperactividad. Este efecto parece estar relacionado con un aumento de este tipo de prescripciones en la población y una mayor facilidad para el acceso a esta medicación. La importancia de este fenómeno radica en que puede suponer la puerta de entrada a otro tipo de consumos y también en la dificultad para su detección y tratamiento, por la facilidad de acceso a la sustancia. El conocimiento de este fenómeno por parte de los médicos que tratan a adolescentes, tanto en consultas como en Urgencias, y de los padres es necesario para prevenir la morbilidad y mortalidad asociadas al consumo de sustancias.

Abstract:
Cannabis use in Israel has escalated exponentially leading to paralleled increases in psychiatric disorders and admissions to residential drug treatment facilities. Our data from the Israeli Ministry of Health Department for the Treatment of Substance Abuse shows that mental and behavioral disorders due to cannabis use have gone up 825% between 2010 and 2019. Also in 2019, amongst drug and alcohol residential treatment centers, where polysubstance use has become the norm, cannabis was reported as the primary substance leading to treatment admission. 52% of those admitted to treatment listed cannabis as their drug of choice, with a huge gap between cannabis and alcohol in second place at 21%. These statistics are particularly concerning since cannabis is currently available not only in the black market and online in Israel, but also as "medical cannabis." The most alarming issue is that Israel will most likely become the 3rd nation in the world to officially legalize cannabis within the next year.
