Overview

The aim of the work was to find out what is the current attitude of adolescents to substance and non-substance addictions. What is their knowledge in this area? How many of them have already "tried" not only coffee, alcohol, cigarettes but also illegal psychotropic substances. What motivates young people to substance and non-substance addiction and are there differences between boys and girls in their use? In this work we used the questionnaire method.

Keywords:
