Description

Risky behavior is a serious public health problem in EU countries. Most of the illnesses in adolescents are the result of risky behaviors related to drug consumption. Problems that lead to the risk behavior may be required in the poor quality of family life and the inadequate way of upbringing.

Aim: To determine the role of upbringing styles of parents with the habits of consuming psychoactive substances (drugs).

Material and Methods: A study was conducted on a sample of 600 respondents, pupils from primary and secondary schools on the territory of the Polog region. Тhe scale used to estimate the parents' upbringing styles- "Egna Minnen Batraffande Uppfostran" (EMBU) is applied, as well as the UHO (union of health organizations) survey questionnaire from the "Global Health Adolescent Survey". The statistical analysis of the data obtained from the research was made in the statistical program SPSS 17.0.

Results and discussion: The structure of the examinees consisted of 264 (44%) male and 336 (56%) female students. The ethnic structure of the students consisted of 300 Macedonian students and 300 Albanian students, 172 (28.67%) were the ninth grade students, 203 (33.83%) were first year high school students, and 225 (37.5%) were second year high school students. In this group of students, 28 (4.67%) students use drugs, in fact the prevalence of drug consumption was 4.67%. With the increase in the value of the subscale "rejection" of the father for the unit score, the risk of developing risky behavior of children from the aspect of drug use increases by 6.3% (OR: 1,063, 95% CI 1,007 - 1,123). With the increase in the value of the subscale "overprotection" of the father for the unit score, the risk of developing risky behavior among children from the aspect of drug use increases by 8.9% (OR: 1,089, 95% CI 1.020 - 1.163).

Conclusion: The results of the studies have shown that upbringing styles of parents have a significant impact on the risky behavior of adolescents from the aspect of using marijuana drug.
