young people in Ireland, The Economic and Social Research Institute, with
funding from the Commission of the European Communities, undertook this
study of the social.psychological factors related to substance use among
Dublin post primary school pupils. There were two main objectives of this
study. First, it was intended to obtain estimates of the prevalence of smoking,
drinking and drug use. Secondly, and more importantly, it was intended to
gain an understanding of the variables and processes related to the acquisition
of maintenance of these behaviours and thus to provide guidelines for
designing more effective intervention programmes.
