Abstract

Objective: to analyze the association between the family system and the drug consumption pattern among adolescents. Methodology: a cross-sectional study carried out with adolescent students attending state public schools. For data collection, sociodemographic data, information about the family system and the Alcohol, Smoking and Substance Involvement Screening Test were used. Results: the associations were between the tobacco consumption pattern, the family system and the adolescents’ behaviors, especially among those with parents or guardians who frequently did not know where they were or what they were doing. Illicit drug use was associated with frequent aggressive verbal behaviors among adolescents and their parents or guardians (screaming and feeling unhappy where they live). Conclusion: it was possible to conclude that being part of a conflicting and unhappy family environment, as well as absence of parental supervision in their children’s lives, interferes with the drug consumption pattern among adolescents.
