“…Previous studies have shown the efficacy of teaching refusal and resistance skills to children and youth. 46 , 47 These skills increase children’s knowledge of the adverse effects of drugs and help them resist substance offers from family and friends. 48 , 49 Emphasis should therefore be placed at delaying the age of substance use debut, which is associated with positive outcomes.…”

Background: In Canada, the rate of opioid use, opioid use disorder (OUD), and associated mortality and morbidity are higher among Indigenous Peoples than the general population. Indigenous Peoples on medications for opioid use disorders (MOUD) often face distinct barriers that hinder their clinical progress, leading to treatment attrition. Methods: We used a social-ecological model to inquire into clients’ experiences with a history of treatment failure for OUD. We used exploratory qualitative research to engage 22 clients with a history of OUD treatment dropouts and who are currently on MOUD. In-depth, semi-structured interviews lasting an average of 30 minutes were conducted on-site. Results: We identified 4 themes from the study: (a) risk for substance use; (b) factors sustaining substance use; (c) factors leading to treatment, and (d) treatment failure and re-enrollment. Conclusion: Using a socio-ecological model helps to understand factors that influence an individual’s risk for OUD, decision to pursue treatment, and treatment outcomes. Furthermore, social ecological model also creates possibilities to develop supportive, multilevel interventions to prevent OUD risks and support for clients on MOUD. Such interventions include mitigating adverse childhood experiences, supporting families, and creating safe community environments.

Background: Drug abuse is serious global health problem. Drug users aged 10-59 years in Indonesia has been increasing steadily. According to data from National Board for Drug Abuse (BadanNarkotikaNasional, BNN), the prevalence of drug users in East Kalimantan was 59,195 (3.07%) of population aged 10-59 years of 1,930,936 people. This research aimed to investigate the psycho-social determinants of drug use among adolescents in Samarinda, East Kalimantan, using Theory of Planned Behavior. Subjects and Method: This was an analytical observational research with cross-sectional design. The research was carried out at BadanRehabilitasi Tanah Merah, Samarinda, East Kalimantan, from July to August, 2017. A sample of 150 adolescents were selected for this research by fixed disease sampling, including 50 adolescent drug users, and 100 adolescent non drug users. The dependent variable was drug use. The independent variables were intention, attitude, subjective norm, perceived behavior control, peer group, parenting style, and family harmony. The data were collected by pre-tested questionnaire and analyzed using path analysis. Results: Drug use was directly determined by strong intention (b= 2.18; 95% CI= 1.22 to 3.14; p<0.001), negative attitude (b= 1.79; 95% CI= 0.76 to 2.82; p=0.001), low subjective norm (b= 1.13; 95% CI= 0.09 to 2.17; p= 0.034), and weak perceived behavior control (b= 2.83; 95% CI= 1.48 to 4.19; p<0.001). Intention was determined by weak perceived behavior control (b= 1.18; 95% CI = 0.14 to 2.22; p<0.001). Subjective norm was determined by family harmony (b= 2.03; 95% CI= 0.96 to 3.09; p<0.001), authoritarian parenting style (b= 1.25; 95% CI= 0.15 to 2.36; p=0.026), and peer group (b= 1.46; 95% CI= 0.37 to 2.54; p=0.009). Conclusion: Drug use is directly determined by intention, attitude, subjective norm, and perceived behavior control. Family harmony, authoritarian parenting style, and peer group affect drug use indirectly.
