Sažetak
Background: Addictive disorders are a major public health problem among young people, and it is important to develop effective prevention programs. Objective: The aim was to collect data on the prevalence of addictive substance use and the factors underlying the use behavior among secondary school students in Vukovar-Srijem County. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among the students of the Technical School in Vinkovci and the High School in Vukovar. Percentages were used for descriptive statistics as an indicator of structure and frequency of occurrence. Results: The questionnaire was completed by 341 participants. The majority believed that the use of addictive substances would increase in the future. 33.53% were smokers, most of whom had tried their first cigarette between the ages of 14 and 16 years. 77.06% reported drinking alcoholic beverages regularly. 36.01% reported that it takes less than an hour to get drugs. Most of them were happy and satisfied, but they were not sure about their future feelings. Conclusion: The results showed that addictive substances are becoming more accessible to young people and that it would be useful to intervene as early as possible to reduce the prevalence of abuse. The prevalence of alcohol use is high, and they are beginning to use alcohol in increasing amounts, and it would be good to continue prevention programs and monitoring prevalence to reduce future use. Health education from an early age is a prerequisite for preventing substance abuse and promoting healthy lifestyles
